I ordered the Battletech 25th Anniversary just last week after shopping around a bit for it. Supposed to arrive on Wednesday and I don't care if none of my friends want to play, I'll play two sides against each other on my own lol. I blame MWO. Can't wait to get into painting them either, been looking up tutorials on youtube, but there's very little. I think it's a great idea to record some tutorials on gameplay and painting. I would absolutely subscribe to a channel like that.
Yea im picking up my box next weekend. Well perhaps I'll give a shot at the whole youtube guide thing. I used to do a commentary channel for the Total War Series because during Shogun 2 I was ranked stupid high on the leader board. At the time however my upload speed was crap so I couldnt really do the youtube thing. Now however I think I could load up a video in minutes.
And yea....Battletech painting videos are for the most part not to be found. The only guy I could find was some Helios guy and after watching 6 videos adding up to an hour I thought his smoke Jaguar mechs looked like ****. I think for my box I'll be doing a lance for each of the major houses to start off with. Pick a well known canon unit that represents the house and I'll paint up 4 mechs that I think are representative of that faction. Starting with Kurita i think
Stay tuned. I'll post a thread when i get the videos rolling.
