The 21st or 28th would be my preference.

[Darrian Wolffe]

The next game will be Jan 21st.  I will attempt to throw up a schedule for most of the rest of the year ASAP, but coordination will take some time.

Maria and Elessar are both gone this entire weekend, so I should have the chance to catch up on the campaign and move you guys along, time-wise, via story fiction.

If you do NOT have a PC at this time (or your PC has been killed off), you may generate a new PC in the "master PC creation thread" here.  BattleMech allocation rules are going to change slightly (essentially, you'll have access to any non-unique SL BattleMech that's 4/6/4 or faster, instead of 5/8/0 or faster).  If you spent character points to choose your own BattleMech and it came with you off of Terra, you still have it.  If you spent CP to choose your own battleMech and it didn't come with you off of Terra, you'll be able to choose a new one.  If you didn't spend CP to choose a mech, then you'll be assigned one that's 4/6/4 or faster as per the needs of the service.  However, with the loss of the Manufacturing facilities for them on Terra, access to Royal BattleMechs is NOT assured.


Additionally, Steve, I'm currently embroiled in a discussing regarding air-to-ground attack on airborne LAMs.  Specifically, regarding attacking the hex the Mech is in with an area-effect weapon, not the Mech itself.  That question wasn't answered in my CBT.com question, whereas it's clear that you can't attack the Mech itself.  I'll get to you once we've hashed out an answer on whether or not the LAM takes any damage; the example regarding buildings being in the hex as the indicator of a WiGE taking damage from an area-effect attack is not currently seen by myself nor the rules team as a conclusive precedent "for" or "against".  I just wanted to keep you in the loop.

BRETT:  You may create a new PC as per the character creation rules.  Once that character is done and approved, you will recieve a portion of your extant XP to upgrade the PC you've created.  It will be a significant portion.  It will not be all of it.

Rob, I didn't spend points to choose my battlemech, however my PXH-1b did make it off Terra with us.  Do I get to keep it?

[agustaaquila]

Ok, as the only person who chose a mech and it didn't come with him, Xin will request a Exterminator-4Db.    

And as a backup, the -4d

[Death or Glory]

I have just learned that I will be unable to make the game on the 21st due to family stuff coming up.

I should be able to make the 21st game however it is not set in stone yet seeing as I now work with mike and I am still in training until the 13th I wont know until after that for sure if I can make it. Also Rob if you could plz look over my pc I created and if there is anything you would suggest to change, anything not on there that should be, or anything that cant be on there plz let me know. Also if i can not have the royal griffin let me know it wont be a big deal ill look for another mech and modify from there if need be.

Probably not (all Royal Mech availability is a random roll).  Recall the Master Rules thread - "found" battleMechs will generally last until you have the opportunity to re-connect with your logistics train (usually the end of a story arc where you're separated from said Mech).

For clarification purposes, it was the PXH-1b that I was issued at the start of the campaign, not a PXH-1b that we salvaged at some point.  Does it still count as a found battlemech?

Oh, right.  Then no, you'll still have it until you get shot out of it.  All bets are off afterwards, though.

[Death or Glory]

Rob, any idea when the February game will be?

[Death or Glory]

February 11th and 18th no longer work for me.

[Darrian Wolffe]

There is almost certainly not going to be a February game.  If there is, it would be the 25th.  The March game, however, will be the 24th, and I'd like to play on both the 7th and 28th of April, if possible.

I'm working on a new Mech for you too, Jon.  My car threw its timing chain and destroyed the engine, so I'm slightly preoccupied.

[ItsTehPope]

As of now there will be no Thursday game.  If I have time tomorrow I may kludge up something for this weekend or the next one however.

[Ice]

hey rob are we for sure playing tomorrow or not im thinking not with your car and all but anyway if you could let us know would be appreciated and hopefully you get something other then a lemon lol

[Darrian Wolffe]

I'm sorry, but the next game will be March 24th.
