Painting a Horde of Exhibition Quality Battletech

This was a fun order. It was a huge number of mechs and we got to go all the way with them. We matched a range of schemes. My favorites are the blue ones.

These were done to Exhibition Quality.

About Battletech:

BattleTech is a tabletop wargame that simulates combat between giant robots called "BattleMechs." The game was first published in the 1980s by FASA Corporation - with, shall we say, GREAT INSPIRATION drawn from Harmony Gold's Macross/Robotech?

All the new, high-detail hotness for Battletech now is coming from Catalyst Game Labs.

In BattleTech, players control a lance of BattleMechs and engage in combat with their opponents' lances. Each player has a certain number of points to spend on their lance, which they can use to purchase different types of BattleMechs, vehicles, and other support units.

BattleTech is known for its complex gameplay, deep lore, and for getting FASA sued by Harmony Gold. The game has a large and dedicated fan base and has inspired a number of spin-off games and other media. I look forward to Battletech for years to come.

Painting Some Battletech

Not too long ago, we showed off quite a bit of Battletech we painted up. Here are a bunch of reinforcements for those same armies / lances.

These were done to Showcase Quality.

We Painted Too Much Battletech!

I have always been intrigued by Battletech. It’s a game that has survived from the era of SSI and FASA, while others like Renegade Legion did not ("what's Renegade Legion?" You ask. Exactly). However, I felt its miniatures let the game down.

The new sculpts however by Catalyst Labs are excellent facelifts. The minis remain about the size of (perhaps generously large) 28mm infantry. However, the level of detail in them exceeds that of a Warmachine Heavy Warjack ("what's Warmachine?" You ask. Exactly). This gives us a great deal of deal to work with. However, it does impact the price quite a bit.

Here is quite a large order of Battletech we painted up. The owner was kind enough to trade some of the miniatures with us! We put them into an opaque bag and each of us drew a figure, one by one. There was some "feeling around for the Madcat" which I declared to be unsporting, but besides that proceedings were civil… We just need to get them painted up and play a game.
