loved them for their insane agility.

Had a Rifts Psychic who used one back in the 90s.

try not to be a Zor loser...

Did Dana and her Veritech, felt like I needed Zor and his Red Leader Bioroid. Hopefully it'll be easy sledding from here, as I try to Master the swoops and curves of these Tirolean designs.

I've always loved the different mecha & especially arming doublets of the Southern Cross chapter of Robotech, so felt like doing a Spartas Hovertank in it's chibiest of modes.

So 9000+ steps in before my morning decaf capp.

And just realized that yet again, we giants and trolls are getting screwed, because of our longer legs we have to walk a lot further to get our 10k steps in than all you dang Hobbits.

Also got no clue what the foam art is supposed to be, lol

Outstanding Power - YouTube

I'm rocking out to the Lovebites' new LP "outstanding power" whilst putting down my 7-8k morning walk.

Why aren't you?

seriously fucking getting sick and tired of convulsions.

was trying to ink (analog) a Juliano, and suffice to say.... nope.

One advantage to digital is saves.

Fucking hell I am getting tired of this shit.

a day late, but some of my all time favorite characters who happen to be women.

Ahsoka Tano
Nocturne
Nova Satori
Aleena

Aleena was my first experience with fridging, which even at 8 chapped my ass so much our party made it our quest to raise the funds to resurrect her.

I love "What a Game Dev Looks Like".

But it always leaves me wondering who/what qualifies as "Game Dev"?

Is it only videos games?

Or do TTRPGs, Wargames, or TT Games like Catan qualify? If they do which aspects, art, writing?

Genuine curiosity, just never got the gumption to ask before.๐Ÿค”

WWI fuel/power conservation IIRC.

What's funny is IIRC (probably more patriotic mythmaking) Ben Franklin proposed it (somewhat satirically), back in a totally agrarian time when it might have made sense, and got told to sit down.

And it's utterly pointless in a modern society.

there is a reason most of the true classics are simple....

yet one more reasons it's stupid.. people don't even do it on the same dates... or at all in more advanced cultures, like... Mexico. ๐Ÿ˜œ

in fairness, the 81 Challenger probably better represents the abomination that was 4e. 5e maybe was one of the Shelby performance package ones from the mid 80s.

That's not to say there weren't TERRIBLE 80s fantasy films, or that you can't have fun with D&D. The recent Honor Among Thieves actually captured our 80s/90s Realms campaign feel pretty well.

It's just the entire mechanics & feel of 5e makes me feel like when Dodge called a 1981 Omni a "Charger".๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I had seen all these, multiple times before I was 8.

There was a 0% chance I wasn't going to become a D&D nerd

and even less that I would ever be able to embrace the modern superhero comic book version of the game.

I'm happy it's bringing more people into gaming, it's just not for me.

where has an elemental tanked 6 separate bursts from an AC5? That's 5 damage per burst (which I think is a 3 shot burst), and a standard elemental has 10 pts armor, plus 1 pt for the meat?

GlitterBoy is fastest until it shoots, then it's totally immobile. Also a couple cyclone missiles nail the boom gun? No weaponry while the Terminator still has scads.

Terminator & Glitterboy's both have armor material science far beyond the Elemental and t800. Also jump or no? Elementals run 10kph.

can we talk about this, especially so close to International Women's Day, without Her Royal Deepness, Sylvia Earle?

Leading first all-women team of aquanauts in Tektite II.

or my childhood heroes, Ron and Valerie Taylor? Pioneering much to do with underwater filming, especially sharks?

I had the idea of fitting a cockpit into a 'mech. I read that the Red Corsair's Battlemaster had a twin seat affair with a command console, so I got a 3rd edition plastic mini and started hacking!

an Elemental literally got killed by rebar launched off a leafspring scorpion.

While Terminators have literally been stepped on by Titans & survived.

Genestealers are about the one thing that seem to them & a Terminator is to a Space Marine what a Clan Tech Assault mech is to a 3025 Light.

Glitterboy is completely immobile while firing.

Unlike an Elelmental, a 40K Terminator is essential a high Megadamage suit. They tank hits from weapons that Battlemechs wish they could make.

If the Gboy loses it's gun, it's a punching bag.

Material science for 40K & RIFTs far outstrip Btech.

Many of her drones found themselves aware and fully sentient. Not all, it seemed that some had deeper psychic potential than others, and the more evolved the more powerful.

But even some Scouts and Troopers found themselves with at least low level human IQ and free will.

Spot is one such example.

After the Regis left, she discovered the remnants of the Protoculture Matrix near the Calgary Rift of Rifts earth.

But something amazing happened, the latent psychic energy locked within the flower of life exploded to it's full potential, w/ many Troopers becoming full awakened in this new land.
