Dear Readers, after I first purchased my Battletech sets, I had literally nobody to play with. Like, nobody. Granted, I only played Battletech Classic at the time. It is, for those of you who don’t know, a slightly more complicated version of playing Battletech. And by slightly, I mean tons more complicated.

I mean,Continue reading “Quick Paining Update: I GOT TO PAINT!!”
Battletech: My Obsession Continues
