Small Scale Scenery

 

Hey everyone ! 
So my son and I have had a few games of Flames of Orion now and we've found we're destroying more and more scenery as we play which is a good thing right ?

Battletech mechs and Flames of Orion

Hey everyone, so last October, I took the boys to the Octogone, a great gaming con in Lyon to meet some friends and dicover new games. Amongst other things, I was offered t test Flames of Orion, a fast paced indie mech gamed. There was obviously no way 2 twelve years olds and me would ever refuse that so we did test the game and had an absolute blast.

It is intuitive, low granularity unlike the original Battletech and you still get the same stupid fun from it by seeing giant robots overheat and explode in cataclysmic balls of fires !

Battletech !

A week ago, I had absolutely no idea these would be painted or that I would even have them...

That's what it is to have great people around you. Let me just explain a few things.

This WE, a fistful of friends and I are gathering at a convention in North-Eastern France to have a few oldschool games and amongst them, my pal Goulven has offered to GM some Battletech (providing table and miniatures as well).

Now It's been more than 15 years since I last played any Battletech and the time before this one was so long ago I cannot remember.

Fast forward a few years up until last week when I was in Ireland in the exquisite company of my friend Cheetor/Sho3box and here he is getting a bagful of models to pick from...
