Hey all! I like probably most of the people introducing theirselves today am detaching myself from bsky, and I don't think I ever actually even made an intro post there, (whoops!) so here is one!
I'm an asexual trans woman in my thirties, my hobbies are mostly a rotating hyper fixation wheel of TTRPGs, gunpla, miniature wargaming, 3D modeling, and occasionally a non-tabletop RPG. Also my husband runs a rabbit rescue so I do a lot of stuff with bunnies too! We live on a farm with many animals we rescued from being food and a few more we adopted who were always companions.
Currently I'm trying to do research to write a book about Posadas aliens coming to Earth in the 18th century and bringing mechs because "what if Jane Austen had a Gundam?" is a very fun question to me, (and also I forgot Gundam Wing existed for like two weeks when I first started thinking about it,) but it's kind of turned into "what if Gundams fought in the Napoleonic wars?" so now I'm also working on a wargame
Hello! Welcome to our pro-trans, pro-commie, pro-anarchist corner of the internet! Hope you enjoy yourself. Ask questions if you have any.
A Napoleonic Wars game with mechs sounds amazing btw! Can't wait to see how it goes if you decide to share any progress on here. Maybe this will be the motivation I need to finish my own tabletop game. It's a card game with cults (and also aliens!). No mechs, though lol
I definitely will! I was gonna base it on Blood & Bayonets when that comes out, but when I tried to make mecha rules for Blood & Plunder (assuming it's the same basic rules as Bayonets) I realized it made more sense to just add infantry and sea ships to Mobile Suit Skirmish
I still have a hex-based d6 wargame system floating around looking for a setting (I wrote my own one called "World War Punk", wherein the British Empire finds ancient Sumerian gods and the whole thing is about debt, agrarian civilisation, and the Middle East, but with airships and tanks)
