This is Barracuda 6, the medium HE-V of my berserker squad. I like the idea of the red cuffs signifying the berserkers and the red stripe on the head for fire support.

Light and an Ultralight HE-V for #steelrift! Got to take a bunch of stuff I’ve learned recently and apply it. Also got to break out the dirty down.

Also that pouch on the ultralight is like sleeping bag sized, which is very funny to me

Really helps if I put the link in the post, doesn't it?

And I did notice I'm using the old rules for Howitzers. I'll get this list updated once the Hangar gets updated.

I'm starting work on a modular tile set of terrain for #BattleTech Alpha Strike and #SteelRift. While that's not really a 'mech design topic, would people be interested in me documenting the process on that?

I built a few more mechs tonight. I’m really enjoying the death ray designs 6mm basing props… like concrete barriers and traffic cones. Without proper scale reference… giant robots are just space marines.
More steel rift miniatures with tiny soldiers, vehicles, and concrete barriers as scale reference.

Building some mechs for Steel Rift. Enjoying the new designs (like the Cerberus and Reavers) that feel less generic. It feels like Death Ray Designs is doing some deeper world-building with the universe and factions.
Cerberus mechs and infantry… base coated dark blue. Two other starter factions glued to the base but not primed yet.

#SteelRift

I’m really enjoying BattleTech but the transition from beginners box to either classic or alpha strike has left me frustrated. I really like the idea in Steel Rift that there is no roll to hit - only a roll to avoid based on mech size. I’m looking forward to trying it…
Steel rift rulebook and close quarters expansion cover. I’m looking forward to trying it and may test new rules for link structure points to systems for more detailed damage. .. I have an idea for structure damage linked to systems where normally the target picks the system hit, from behind the attacker picks, and from the side it’s random who picks. This might break the game but I really want system damage without all the complex calculations and tracking.
