Cool. I like the missile racks, they fit the concept very well. Could we get
a scan of the image you were inspired by?

I googled the comic and found a site with a pic where you can sort of see the
missile launchers (the top picture on the page).

Cute (I know, not the word you want applied to a 20-ton clanking death
machine). I’m not a big fan of “mechs” as such, but I like it. Looks very
playable, prime diorama material.

It is fairly playable, you can pick it up, set it back down, put it in the
dropship, etc., and it won’t fall apart. Based on the responses, the blue one
is the least popular, but for some strange reason it’s actually my favorite.

This is my fave out of the three. Only suggestion would be to either trim the

I’ve got a couple of those cool missile packs of yours sitting around, too.
Nifty idea.

Thanks! I could easily imagine a slightly scaled down 2X3 version bolted to a
shoulder mount on one of your landmates.

Amen. I’m thinking I’ll drag out Intron Depot tonight and see what I can do
about boosting our group activity some more.

Intron Depot rules!

Cool stuff. I’m not a big fan of the colorschemes on the mechs, they seem
kinda fragmentary, but the last one is great.

I do like to fragment my colors a somewhat, in an attempt to generate a little
visual interest. Also, part supply can be an issue. I have to agree though
that most folks prefer the more consistent schemes. Thanks for the response!
