The server was upgraded by the host to PHP 7.2. The original site was built on version 3 or 4 and 7.2 did away with a lot of code that I used. It has been a really long time since I'm done anything with PHP so I'm not only having to figure out what I did in the first place but also learn PHP 7.2. I'm making some progress. It is only about 1000 lines of code that I will need to alter. I'm working on it. I however do have limited time to do so.

This is how I
painted my Word of Blake Shadow
Divisions. To date, I only did these on
Celestials. They take to this scheme and
approach well because of the detailing
that are on the legs. The trim colors
are the only difference between most of
my Shadow Divisions.

It has been a
while since I've had a chance to sit and
write a painting article. Hopefully I
can rectify that. I've done a couple of
Star Adder mechs lately so I'll do a
couple articles on them and I'll start
with a pair of minis I painted in 2013.

It has been a while since I've been able to continue this project. A
week in Denver for business and then getting sick that wiped me out for
another week will do that. It had me backlogged on some other CGL
projects so this had to sit on the back burner. I should be back on
track for another update or two.

I’m almost done with the mechs for my army. I
should have the Summoner painted in the next week or two. That will
leave me with only the battle armor to finish. This week we have the
iconic Timber Wolf.

It has almost
been a month since I could show off some
proper minis. Sorry for the delay. I
hope last week’s Clan Coyote Lambda
article was helpful. I’ve managed to
finish the Executioner E along with
having the Timber Wolf Z mostly done and
most of the battle armor at least
cleaned up with some paint on them. I
forgot how annoying painting those
little beasts could be.

While I’m waiting for the humidity to drop so I can prime miniatures to
continue with my A Call To War: Clan Coyote Epsilon Galaxy project, I
thought I would write up an article for another miniature I recently
completed. I am real pleased with how the paint scheme came together for me
even if I goofed on assembling the miniature.

Here's a short
article on
Alpha Strike. Some of you might
enjoy it for ease of play or length of
the game. It isn't all that different
from MW:DA in general concepts.

| The eight month
old is winning this week. I haven’t
managed to get a lot done. At all. [In
full disclosure I did have a free
weekend while my fabulous wife took both
kids to a church retreat. I stayed home
and did a lot of work around the house
that couldn’t be done with kids around
plus I got an afternoon of gaming which
hasn’t happened in months. Did I mention
my wife is fabulous?]

I’ve been trying to get some minis assembled. I think I bit off more
than I can chew on that. I just finished a Fire Falcon, Adder Prime, Adder A, Adder H, Lancelot, Naga, Executioner E, and Gurteltier.

Last week we
finished up the long and winding road
that was the army building. This week we
will start on the units and minis. As I
appointed out last week, the Septicemia
was already done. Before I talk about
the Septicemia and its role, I want to
talk about the mini.

Last time I
discussed the failed army that was my
Clan Coyote Zeta Galaxy / Society force.
I just didn’t feel like I did Zeta
justice. Looking at my shelf, I see a
couple protomechs, a Cephalus, and a
Septicemia painted in Clan Coyote
Epsilon Galaxy colors that could use
some company. I see an Osteon Prime that
needs painted. I still want to keep the
nova concept. Instead of making too much
of an overt Society force, I want to
just hide a simple Trey in the Star.

I wish I had time for regular battletech games. Those days are behind
me for the next couple of years. I preferred MechWarrior: Dark Age due
to the simpler rule set and faster game play. Don’t get me wrong. A
classic slug fest is always welcome but I actually enjoy games that you
can complete in an hour or two. Being able to set up several games in an
evening with friends is icing on the cake. Alpha Strike seems to bring
back that type of game for me provided you aren’t trying to play cluster
on cluster or regiment against regiment.

I'm doing some very heavy house cleaning.
Removing some old unneeded pages and in general
tidying things up. Hopefully I
will have a project to reveal soon.
Most of
the old MW:DA stuff is under the
Mechwarrior section.

I hope I didn't lose anything in the process.
The old photo gallery is gone except the goats.
For some reason they show up on a google search
for mountain goat and West Virginia. No clue
why. Best to leave them.

On my way down to OTR, I saw some goats
hanging out on one of the cliff faces.

So why warrenborn? When I humbly asked my khan to allow me to serve the great Clan Fuzzy
Bunny, I was graciously awarded a Warren Born
to pilot. To quote the ilKhan:
Huzzah!!!
*does the bunny dance of joy*
That'll be one Warren Born, stacked to
the ears with double heat sinks and HALs for caverjan! This . . . is a
good day.
