    My current schedule is non-existent. There is a new rule system launching August 1. Pathfinder Second Edition. I already have one book finished and hope to have at least one more by then.

    I could have sworn I had a character in the last campaign. VTOL/aerotech pilot I think.

    We retired all of that after it became way too much work to track upgrades and repairs for vehicles. And VTOLs are useless outside of atmospheric conditions. Made scenario making more difficult. They still made an appearance as "call in" assets you could bring on a mission, but didn't make any practical sense as PC units.

    If/When they hit $1.5 mil I'm going to struggle to hold out, since we will be able to pick our double forces

    This is what I'm currently looking at getting mech related.
    This should come to 78 mechs which is a dandy number for me. Enough for two battalions with command lances, if I put the clan mechs in the units. so atleast 5 clan mechs and another possible 13 more.

    2 Inner Sphere Command Lance - Marauder, Valkyrie, Archer, Stinger
    2 Inner Sphere Battle Lance - Phoenix Hawk, Warhammer, Rifleman, Wasp
    1 Inner Sphere Direct Fire Lance - Atlas Marauder II, Orion, Crusader
    1 Inner Sphere Heavy Lance - Banshee, Grasshopper, Centurion, Hatchetman
    1 Inner Sphere Striker Lance - Blackjack, Panther, Wolfhound, Jenner
    1 Inner Sphere Fire Lance - Zeus, Trebuchet, Stalker, Longbow
    2 Inner Sphere Heavy Battle Lance - Cataphract, Bushwacker, Axman, Nightstar
    1 Inner Sphere Urban Lance - Raven, Enforcer, Hunchback, Victor
    0 Inner Sphere Support Lance - Dragon, Thug, Cyclops, Spider
    1 ComStar Level II #1 - King Crab, Highlander, Black Knight, Exterminator, Sentinel, Mercury
    0 ComStar Level II #2 - Crockett, Flashman, Guillotine, Lancelot, Crab, Mongoose
    +1 Innershphere box set - Locust, Commando, Griffin, Shadowhawk, Wolverine X2, Catapult, Thunderbolt, Awesome, Battlemaster

    As we all enjoy some good speculation, I'm calling that we will definitely be getting an IS extra lance due to the rather conspicuous absence of the Hunchback from any of the IS lances. Now I'm wondering what other missing mechs are you all thinking might be in it?

    They added a hunchback with the community choice lances. It’s part of the urban lance which will probably be a G because of the other mechs it’s paired with.

    They also took out the berserker lance and replaced it with the heavy battle lance.

    One of the main reasons I'm throwing so much money is because I dont have to build anything. At least I dont think you have to build these or do you? As I can really get behind a mini I just have to wash, prime, and paint.

    edit

    another is the price. the average iwm model is from 12 to 17 dollars.

    So the model cost for me right now is around $4.34. So thats a steal.


    but mainly dont have to build anything. No literally loosing your mind trying to glue on a arm or antenna.

    Hit 1 and a half million so we get double forces rapid deployment, which I knew we had been headed that way with the amount of money coming in.

    2 million stretch goal is supposed to have us "frothing with excitement"

    They have new tables up showing exactly what you get at each level now.

    So much stuff. :tentacle:

    This is how you go from funded to overstretched real fast. That is an amazing list of swag for $300!

    Keep in mind that some of those stretch goals are just things that you are unlocking the ability to buy. Like the battlemat I don't think is added for free is it, they are just going to be producing them now.
