#battletech and/or #alphastrike rules question: do protomechs have unit facings like regular mechs? Currently have a bunch sliced but need to know if I should base them on hexes or not.

Some Alpha Strike game pics from a little while ago, my Sword of Light vs some mercs controlled by the sibling. C3 shenanigans proved to be no match for SRM Carriers and heavy tanks. #battletech #alphastrike #nerdlings

Okay, I got some non-Battletech out of my system, so now back to your regularly scheduled #RasalhagueDominion #TauGalaxy #Battletech #alphastrike #tabletop #miniatures #painting #catalystgamelabs

Day 8 of #Mechtober is Wolf's Dragoons. While I may take Wayne Waco's side on them, I can't argue with how influential they are in the setting. #Battletech #Miniaturepainting

Hey, that’s me!

@fredpickle01.bsky.social has a small horde of mechs. From left to right (ish) there's 1st Genyosha, Otomo, Izanagi Warriors, 4th Sword of Light, Clan Coyote Epsilon Galaxy. The Tarazed Planetary Militia is in the back, along with a lance of Snord's Irregulars

Three decades ago I would look at the miniatures in the old Battletech Master Rules as inspiration. Now, in 2026, my own miniatures are in the new Core Rulebook and my name is in the credits. Feels good man, it's a bucket list achievement for sure. (still got my old book too) #battletech

A new dragon is underway for my HarrowHyrst range….I do love making them. I’ve used Sculpey to bulk out the wire armature and all the details are being sculpted with BeesPutty polymer clay. A homage to my old s-shaped dragons for Games Workshop :-)

Holy crap, look at these PRISTINE #unseen mechs I scored. #ralpartha #painting #catalystgamelabs #battletech #alphastrike #miniatures #tabletop

I can’t tell if I’m going crazy or not, but is the cover AI? It could just be angle/POV weirdness that I’m seeing wrong but the way the guy is holding the gun feels weird to me #battletech

The next blind box was the venerable Orion. The color scheme is an evolution of the one I did as a kid in the 90s. Instead of black with B/R highlights, I changed to a camo pattern #Aces #OhrksDragoons #Mercs #Mercenaries #painting #catalystgamelabs #battletech #alphastrike #miniatures #tabletop

Six Mamono IFVs added to our #HouseKurita forces. models are actually “RDF Parthfinder Archer”s as there is no official Mamono model for #battletech Amphibious, anti-missile system, reflective armour…and each carries 2 platoons. #draconiscombine

Got an absolutely murderous migraine today, but I just about finished up another sentinel last weekend! #warhammer #warhammercommunity #wargaming #nerdlings

It's finally here!! Preorders for the first ever TANKHEAD model kit are now open! ✨ The iconic Type 33 Heikegani Crab Tankhead is now available as a highly posable and detailed plastic model kit. At 1/48 scale, it’s about 11 inches wide and almost 3 inches tall, with 50 points of articulation.

I’ve been busy working on some infantry and SRM Carriers for Battletech. 4 Carriers to fill out the 3rd(?) company of Sword of Light that I have, and a couple to fill out the half-lance of Hetzers I had. (1/2)

The infantry is a bit of a mix, with some Rifle Platoons, Arrow IV platoons (which will probably be used as SRM infantry because I haven’t bought STLs for proper SRMs yet), Motorized Field Guns, and Otomo Guards. The Rifles and SRMs will be carted around in the Maxims I printed a while ago.
