@Silverlion @CountZeroOr @LeviKornelsen I recently discovered #TheMechaHack (thanks @darkade ) which is rooted in #BlackSwordHack and looks like it would play pretty fast. Not sure if it has as much customization as armored core, though!

In the biggest upset to my campaign 2 predictionsthe group has decided we will play #Mausritter

I would have been happy with any of the eight options, but this was unexpected, I was sure the group would go for #TheMechaHack, it's all they've been talking about for a couple of weeks

I think the demo we had last well went well, but it probably scratched the itch for a #mecha game so they decided for this one

Tied in the first "voting" round: #dcc and #intotheodd

This is the map that we played #TheMechaHack with last week. It's basically the #Dota2 map (before the recent updates)

I used it for a capture the flag "training" scenario and it really worked

It's exactly my favorite style of map, hexes, first and for most, and as abstract as possible. I find that when I go abstract people ask for stuff and get ideas. When I go for more detailed maps options feel more restricted

Here we have walls, buildings and a river

Played #TheMechaHack as a one shot to test it, I expected to like it, but it was much better than I anticipated

It was the kind of tactics I do like and I wasn't expecting that much tactics tbh. There's few options each turn but all of them are very versatile which makes it feel rapid and dynamic. Compared to "tactical" games where often we get a ton of options with very narrow applications

I really liked it. At this point it is for sure my front runner for our campaign 2

It's looking more and more likely that the next campaign will be running #TheMechaHack

If that's the case it will definitely be much shorter, maybe a year? But over the past weeks as I gathered my references to run the end of the current campaign I realized I know way more about mecha than I had realized

#ttrpg

So. For the next campaign my options are #OSE, #DCC #MorkBorg #ItO #Bitd #TheMechaHack

I'm secretly rooting for the mecha hack. I really loved reading it and got my head running. Before reading it I was rooting for DCC, which, after this mecha-hack-high has passed probably would be back to my no 1 spot for the new game

The two players that have read my games pitch deck (xD) have mostly landed on DCC and ItO, which I find very funny because it's the maximalist and minimalist approaches

Me desperté pensando e los básicos del mundo que usuaría si jugamos #TheMechaHack los miércoles. Originalmente había pensado algo inspirado por #BattleStarGalactica estamos en el planeta Ares en el sistema Helios y descubrimos en algún momento que es marte hace millones de años, porque obviously

Pero se me ocurrió que como hay Kaiju, pues KAIJU es un acrónimo, because I'm a fucking hack who'll rip off anyone :s xD

En todo caso llegué a:

Criaturas Anómalas Incontrolables de J___ Uno

I had #TheBlackHack in my backlog and after reading #TheMechaHack I felt like checking it. I was familiar with 1e but 2e is so damn beautiful. It's great layout design. Mechanically I haven't really found anything I don't like, or anything I haven't seen used elsewhere, but seeing it all together just fits

If you are worried abou the Usage Dice, for ammo and such you just roll at the end of the encounter

I'd like a short campaign of this. Maybe 8 sessions enough to get a couple levels

Me plotting next week's #TheMechaHack game...

Getting into Gamesmaster mode
#TheMechaHack #TTRPG

Had to wrap tonight's #themechahack game earlier than planned, alas, as I'm sufficiently tired that I kept losing my words. But! We've had the mission brief, they have deployed to the staging zone, and we're ready to kick off next week straight into the action. Definitely had less successful sessions, at least

Really struggling to write my #themechahack mission for tonight's game. Got some basic ideas but nothing's really gripping me.

It's mission 5 of an ongoing campaign and hitting the halfway point of the story and I've hit the bloated middle bit that always happens when I run campaigns. I know how I want it to start and end but the bridge is always the hardest part for me.

Been unusually busy gaming time for me recently. Ran #BrindlewoodBay last Saturday, hopefully playing #13thAge this Saturday, recording for the show on Sunday and just wrapped the latest mission for #TheMechaHack on Tuesday. Managed to get in a few games of #BloodOnTheClocktower in the meantime too! Just wish I was awake enough to properly appreciate it all 😁
