Freelancers didn’t happen. :-(

 The Freelancers campaign I mentioned in the last post mostly didn’t happen. I DMd one session where I had one player, John, plus my 12-year-old son and my 8-year-old daughter. I threw out most of my prep (which really needed more PCs) and sent the group against a false hydra  but it only had one head with HP. The PCs managed to usually have at least one of them who made a Wisdom save and they each got  a hit or three in before it went down. After that session I realized that I was having a lot of trouble getting into the right mindset to DM. Family troubles and challenges have been coming up left and right. I honestly don’t know if I’ll ever be up for DMing D&D 5e again any time soon, because I just don’t know the system well enough and I have anxiety about my kids, my spouse, and life generally. Besides that, when I never know how many players will be there I can’t really prep very well. (My original prep was for 4-6, and I ended up with two players plus one druid u...

CGR-1A1 Charger, HTM-26T Hatamoto-Chi

Image
The Charger is one of my favorite Mechs, for the usual reason that it’s a massive underdog. Seriously, the original version of this Mech is TERRIBLE. It was designed by Wells Technologies to be an ultra-heavy scout Mech for the Star League Defense Force. With only average speed and medium armor and loaded up with five small lasers with a maximum range of 90 meters, it can easily be destroyed by scout mechs weighing as little as a quarter the tonnage but having three times the weapon range and far higher speed. With such terrible prospects for survival, the SLDF stopped using the Charger and Wells Technologies was left with warehouses full of assault Mechs they couldn’t sell. So how did the Charger survive? In the First Succession War, House Kurita was so desperate for Mechs that they bought a large part of the Wells inventory and made a long-term contract to produce them. Pilots discovered that a Charger could take on many Mechs if it could get close enough to, well, charge the enemy....

QKD-4G Quickdraw

Image
  To celebrate sarna.net’s latest Bad Mechs feature, here’s my assessment of the Quickdraw . Let’s see if it fares any better in Mobile Frame Zero. The Quickdraw was designed to replace the Rifleman , but frankly is does a poor job of it. The Rifleman was designed as an anti-aircraft Mech but is also used for fire support. It has considerable firepower and great medium- to long-range damage-dealing potential, but also has paper-thin armor, has average speed for a heavy Mech (which is to say it’s slow), and tends to overheat. The designers of the Quickdraw wanted a much more versatile Mech and focused on fixing the Rifleman’s weaknesses, but this was at the expense of the Rifleman’s strengths. The 60-ton Quickdraw has SLIGHTLY more armor than the Rifleman and is 33 percent faster. It also uses jump jets for added mobility. Just these features took up half the weight of the Mech, however, and that’s not including other essentials like a cockpit, gyro, and internal structure. As a re...
