I agree with you Mythfish. I've been playing BattleTech since about 1987 and I must admit that even though they only come out every few years, I scratch my head trying to remember a decent percentage of the mechs in the latter TROs. After a while, they all sort of seem to blend together ;-) - On the...

A copy of The Last City has just arrived from my local Australian gameshop. Well worth the wait and already devoured, I was hoping when I came back to the site that there would be something cool in the pipeline. After reading Last City, a campaign based on travelling with the endless traders seems l...

Glod nods vaguely at whatever plans are made, content to keep working on repairs.

Glod starts helping with repairs, moving slowly around the mech's innards, looking for things that need fixing.

15 + Craft (Mechcraft)(+23) = 38
16 + Craft (Mechcraft)(+23) = 39
4 + Craft (Mechcraft)(+23) = 27
8 + Craft (Mechcraft)(+23) = 31
18 + Craft (Mechcraft)(+23) = 41

Perhaps a custom prestige class for coglayers that actually field test the weapons that they work on would be a way around this?

Perhaps with long combat sequences we should provide 10 or 20 dice rolls. I know I got a bit thrown by the quick move to mech combat.

Glod performs the repairs. Roll = 7. Craft(Mechcraft) +23. Total = 30.

After he is finished, Glod asks if he could help out Hammer with the lunar creature. He informs Hammer that in the past he's done some training on Steamcannons and Mech lances.

Glod puts his buzzaxe somewhere within easy reach (his steam gun being in the armory) and asks whether Hammer has anything on which he might draw up a schematic. Glod stays with the gearwrights. Tinkering is way more fun than getting shot at.

Yup, built it all in Bryce3D, rendered it in Bryce and then used Photoshop to blur it and make it BW which seems to be the style of DragonMech. The idea is that Glod has a deep subconsious desire to build his own citymech one day. Obviously such a goal is a very long way off, but I'm planting some o...

Glod goes across towards the gnomes and stands a respectful distance away. He watches what they are doing carefully, attempting to fathom its theory and purpose. Once he thinks he knows what is going on, or realizes that he is completely in over his head, not an unusual occurance for a short shy dwa...

Glod pays his membership due to Twiddle and scouts out the other Coglayers, looking for new and unusual steam powers. Being rather shy, he prefers to watch. He won't start speaking unless another coglayer engages him in conversation. This doesn't stop him from grunting appreciatively when he sees so...

Glod travells with the militia Dwarf and checks his improved steam-gun into the armory, being quite careful to ensure that he gets the appropriate receipts to get it back.

Coglayers like to share and show off new steampowers and we might learn something that we don't already know. Glod also takes one of the bottom bu...
