Filthy Plight Sample file 4 Filthy Plight ajor Myron Carpathia squinted at his viewscreen, cursing the enemy missile that had hit his ’Mech’s head and damaged his sensors. Static-filled monitors and a targeting reticle that Mfuzzed in and out on his HUD mocked his need to target the enemy accurately. Aiming as best he could, he tightened his grip on the control sticks of his grandfather’s Warhammer and pressed the firing studs for its twin PPCs. He swooned in the sudden wash of oppressive heat and struggled to observe the effect of his weapons fire. Coruscating blue bolts traced their way through air made dusty by the tread of BattleMechs. The left beamSample passed harmlessly file over the fleeing enemy Grasshopper’s shoulder, while the right made a ruin of its left arm. The damage was insignificant, though. The Langendorf Lancer ’Mech poured on the speed and left Carpathia’s Warhammer behind. The Grasshopper was one of the slower raiders, but now it joined their ranks in the city’s edge, disappearing from view behind the homes and apartment buildings of the city’s residential quarter. Almost in unison, Carpathia’s comrades in the Filthy Lucre slowed their ’Mechs to a halt outside the city and beyond enemy range. Their garrison contract required them to protect the world of Dixie from Free Worlds League raiders like these fellow mercs. Pursuing the enemy into the city, especially the nearby civilian district, would go against their pledge to safeguard the locals. The raiders had grounded their DropShips on the far side of New Wichita before making an end run at the supply depot in the old Castle Brian.

    INTRODUCTION Hello, fight fans! And welcome to a super-special, epic-level edition of the Warrior’s Arena, the weekly vidzine where we cover all you need to know in the latest and greatest events in heavy metal combat entertainment! Highlights for this week: “The Return of Tassa Kay?” – We talk about rumors that Star Colonel Anastasia Kerensky may be visiting Solaris VII next month—and whether she’ll have time for a few flashy Trials in the Coliseum while she’s here! “Countdown to 3137” – We talk about the early favorites for next year’s Grand Championship, both in the individual warriors Classic Circuit and the Combined-Arms Circuit. “He Said/She Said” – The war of words heats up between former SGB broadcast commentators Dave Parmenter and Gwen Klornax. Did the agreeable angel of “Solaris Game Watch” really take “unfair advantage” of her intoxicated co-host during the 3136 New Year’s Gala, or is Parmenter just blowing smoke after learning his contract with the network ended soon after? “Spotlight: The 3146 Royal Fantasy Tournament!” – And, of course, the event that everyone will be tuning in for this fight season: the 3146 Fantasy Tournament! An event so special this year it’s even earned its own “theme” name! Yes, it’s an extravaganza of fire, metal, flash, and thunder! So, brace yourselves, fight fans, and tag in! This week’s issue is exploding with surprises you don’t want to miss! –Warrior’s Arena Weekly, Solaris Digital Distributions, 1 September 3146 Sample file HOW TO USE THIS BOOK The ’Mechs and battle armor described in Experimental Technical Readout: Solaris Royal Fantasy Tournament provide players with a sampling of the custom designs that have arisen in the deadly gladiatorial arenas of Solaris VII’s dueling circuit.

  • Life Paths Updated.Pdf
    STAGE 1: EARLY CHILDHOOD The formative years are vital to a character's development. Many Attributes and personality traits are dramatically affected by this stage, and some paths even provide basic skills. Most important, the path chosen in this stage will have a significant impact on what paths the character can follow later. Time: Upon completion of this stage, the character is ten years old. Continuation: After following a single path at this stage, most characters will proceed to Late Childhood. Some affiliations permit a child to enter the workforce after Stage 1; in this case, proceed to the Real Life stage. You can also end the Life Path here and play your character as a child, in which case proceed to Assigning Attributes, Traits and Skills. Clan Characters: Trueborn characters must begin Stage 1 in a Clan Crèche. Freeborn characters start the Life Path based on their caste: scientist and merchant caste characters start on the White Collar Path, technician caste on Blue Collar, laborer caste on Blue Collar or Farm (player's choice), and dark caste on the Back Woods, Farm, Street or Blue Collar paths. If you want your character to be a freeborn warrior, he or she must begin the Life Path in one of the civilian castes. Free Skills: Regardless of Life Path, all player characters automatically receive 3 Skill Points to be divided as the players choose among their affiliation's primary and secondary Language Skills. Characters also receive 3 Skill Points toward Language/English (all 6 Skill Points can go to the Language/English Skill, if the player desires).

    RECOGNITION GUIDE: ILCLAN VOLUME 07 STAR SUCCESSION CLAN LEAGUE WARS INVASION CIVIL WAR JIHAD DARK AGE ILCLAN SampleCATALYST GAME LABS file INTRODUCTION 3 RECOGNITION GUIDE: ILCLAN VOL. 07 SAFACTOR, Words which once seemed impossible now seem inevitable: the ilClan is nigh. The turbulence of the last two decades has brought several of our fellow Clans to Terra’s doorstep, to say nothing of the Inner Sphere powers which gaze upon humanity’s birthplace with hungry eyes. But we know our people, we know their aggression. One of them will move to take Terra first and claim the mantle of ilClan, however briefly. If they intend to hold it, however, they will need new hardware—and, as ever, we stand ready to deliver. For a price. Contained within these volumes is that hardware. It is an intriguing combination of all-new BattleMech designs and retrofits of existing Inner Sphere and Clan designs with weapons and equipment suitable for modern combat. All are in our inventories or otherwise obtainable, and I have instructed all Merchant Caste personnel under my command above the rank of Point Merchant to familiarize themselves with the contents of these reports and be ready to negotiate terms for any merchandise herein. I hope you will assist me, “old friend,” with their distribution across all Khanates. The wheel of power is poised to spin once more, but we must be the axle on which it revolves. Who winds up atop that wheel, and who is crushed beneath it, matters little as long as we profit from each turn. —Merchant Colonel Reece, aboard CSF Atlantean, Skate Khanate, 14 November 3150 Welcome to Recognition Guide: ilClan, a supplement offering players exciting new ’Mech variants rooted in the closing days of the Dark Age era and the transition to the ilClan era.
