Pledge? Well I need to do more work on this lot:

Q1: Proxies?
Funny old thing but as I’ve realised I’m probably never going to play in Games Workshop store or at one of their events, I’ve become a lot more willing to use proxies & 3P parts in my projects. And I say this as someone with 4 distinct Imperial Guard Imperial Guard armies on the go.

But I also can;t resist if a Proxy can cover for a unit that’s either difficult to get or non-existent…..

Q2: Do Lets Plays influence you?
On occasion, yes.

Q3: Alpha Strike or Battletech?
Both? Both. Both is good.
More seriously I love that there are so many ways to get into the Battletech tabletop experience nowadays, and the 2 systems let you experience it in distinctly different ways. I do though think that, for all the strengths of the 2 Player Starter, A Game of Armoured Combat and Clan Invasion boxes, the Alpha Strike starter box might be one of the best introductory products you can buy today.
