Alpha Strike is definitely more my speed. The rules are more streamlined letting you get more minis on the table or have quicker games and while they do kind of remove some of the uniqueness of Mechs they also make a bunch of Mechs that would never be viable absolutely playable.

Even without the ship upgrade, the flamethrower is in a decent place. Just hope your teammates are too, hehe

Seems more Rennpunk, but I'm not 100% when handgonnes were largely used.

You are correct, it's had its magazines hold 3 less rounds and it's recoil was increased.

I wonder if the armor pen on the Diligence CS will make up for the glacial ADS movement.

Also if its from the developers of the system you also, hopefully, can assume that they are keeping with their own visions and intentions which should be healthy for the system. Even if its just "Story" content, it'd be really weird to see a room full of random sci-fi crap in what has up until that point been mostly a gritty fantasy dungeon. Also, people can rail against this all they want, but people tend towards authority. The developers and publishers saying X feat or edge or whatever is useable in X setting, it doesn't leave a lot of room for inter-group bickering about it, but even then its opt-in.

Yea this is 100% the issue here. If I wanted to make content, I would, if I purchase a book with content for a specific setting or scenario, then there had better be that content in it.

Oh I'm not. I don't even play 5e anymore unless someone else is running it. I moved my setting and campaigns to Savage Worlds.

I did so because I don't like that WotC sells me books that are half baked and claims it's up to GM to write the content they paid for.

Also the entire debacle the other year with the OGL.

Every time we land somewhere "clear" lately, the democracy officer immediately says "you're in range of enemy artillery" and then the dropships start lmfao

Idk. I kinda of expect that when I buy something that all the information I would need would be present. But, I guess if you like having some of the information only, then it makes sense there's no rules for sailing space ships in the space sailing book. Especially since they charge you the same for modules with half the information in them as modules that have all the information in them.

Really d&d 5e is a mid system from an increasingly mid company.

FF14 has another expac coming out soon, so that's gonna blow up. ESO was doing pretty well last I checked, too.
