Actual Play: Heavy Gear Blitz 3.1

Heavy Gear Blitz 3.1

I’m getting to actually play Heavy Gear Blitz via a semi-regular monthly game day scheduled at Gamers Corps in Old Ellicott City (OEC)!

This means several positive things:

Social Interaction
#

Really, it’s good for me. Getting out and talking to people is good. (Online is good, too.)

Motivation to Paint
#

Definite reasoning to paint my pile of Heavy Gear minis and to paint more ‘troops’ and less ‘big tanks and striders’ as the troops are really necessary.

Motivation to Write
#

I’m trying to use this blog in part to have some little essays about the game mechanics. I’ve done work for DP9 in a technical way but not in a rules/lore way, so I am neither official in any of those senses or indicating anything. If I say the Caprice line needs a cheap local ‘engineer’ model that’s just me running my mouth.

Motivation to Improve
#

Someone what contrary to the above, I also hope to spend some time looking at the work I’ve done for DP9 and making it an easier, better experience for users.
