New Sneak-Peak from BattleTech Facebook page
« on: September 21, 2013, 04:44:22 PM »
Something new and fun from the BattleTech facebook page the Soyal-class WarShip from Field Report Capellan Confederation (2765) talk about a thing of beauty.  Looks like maybe a mass driver and 3-6 DropShip collars

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

You know there is something wrong with the FWL, when Word's spell check changes Impavido to Impetigo and Zechetinu to Secretion.

Mass driver is a big no as it didn't exist at the time.

If it was a Davion WarShip I'd say it was a ram.

Nope.

Trust someone to have a couple of answers and sealed lips :-X

It's at least three collars seen along her back and the fighter bays along her sides

Your above post gave me the best laugh in the past two weeks, thus -> Thank you BN!  :D

I agree. And my hopes for a few more designs seem to be coming true too.

P.S.: What is/was the usual time period between a sneak peak on facebook and publication by CGL?

More often 24-48 hours from what I've seen recently it seems to vary product to product being this is the first field report from that era I'm guessing maybe a little longer lead time to build interest makes sense

Seriously?! I thought that was hilarious. Very apt, actually.
