The last 4 Mechs are done to bring my company up to full strength of 4 lances. The Awesome is a 3d print, the Marauder, Valkyrie and Stinger are from the Command lance boxed set. I then used the spare Archer to test out a colour scheme for a mercenary company. https://scottyswargaming.blogspot.com/2024/10/completed-company.html

Very, very nice indeed - you're inspiring me to complete my Mercenary company and get it out of the way for new mech projects!

Have to admit, though, I've never entirely been sold on ground vehicles in Battletech - I'm much more of a 'big stompy robots' fan! Yours are nice, though - printed?

Yep, printed, I'm lucky that one of our club members owns a 3d printer

Very nice, although a bit blurred on the body.
I really must get around to posting some piccies up, just been working on a printed Linebacker for my Ghost Bears cluster.

For a planned club game I needed some ground troops to support my Mechs. These are the very old Space marine models which will fit just fine. The vehicles are more 3d prints provided by a club member. More here https://scottyswargaming.blogspot.com/2024/11/ground-troops.html I just need to wait for some grass tufts to arrive to finish the bases.

Nice troops — those old plastic Space Marines see duty in a lot of games!  I also use them as wet Marines in Ogre so they're visually different than the regular infantry.

2 new mechs added to complete my mercenary lance. These are both 3d prints, a Penetrator and Hunchback

That's not a Hunchback mate, that there is a Swayback variant, I'm sure of it!  :D

But still, some very nice mechs and I'm also a big fan of the MWO designs for the 3d prints. Most of my Ghost Bears are 3d prints and the detail is pretty excellent, on the whole.

Very cool! I picked up three of the sourcebooks for my burgeoning collection of Battletech today, along with some terrain stuff.

I anticipate starting paint this week!
