A couple weeks after the launch of episode 1, I am overwhelmed by the positive response it's received from the community. Thank you to everyone following! Ep. 1 was a fantastic proof-of-concept, and I'm hard at work producing the next several videos. I hope to have them release monthy.

Here's a sneak peak of the damage tracker that will appear starting in Episode 2!
So stoked to be providing music for this series! An engaging way to enjoy classic battletech skirmishes with many more to come.

Episode 1: The Battle for New Guldra is live!!

So excited for this - and hey, the sultry voice of that Aurigan liaison officer sounds familiar, I bet she's super hot and tall and stacked*
(* she's me, of course she is)
I'm pleased to announce the trailer for Episode 1 of Flames of Panzyr is now live! #battletech #mechwarrior #alphastrike #miniatures
As Transgender day of Visibility dawns here in Australia, I'm getting in early to remind you all that from the core to the periphery, trans rights are human rights, and we'll keep fighting for our trans siblings in Battletech, and in the world at large.

A miniature Phoenix Hawk opens fire on an enemy Starslayer
Been having a lot of fun working on the fx for this! Every laser needs to be hand done, which is a lot of work, but I think it's worth it for the result!
A pair of aerospace fighters swoops in for a kill
And do the pirates have aerospace support? Why yes, yes they do.
A miniature Falconer emerges from the ruins of a building.
Getting some more editing in today. Hero shot of my boi! Someone pointed out to me recently that I run a Falconer every time they play me. This wasn't on purpose but I may have found a preference.

Sgt. Ludmila Karpov lost her spouse when the Wolves invaded Arcadia in 3145. She told the Rangers "give me a 'Mech, and I'll give you a mountain of Wolf pelts." After heavy training during the Rangers garrison duty with the FWL, she's ready to deliver on that promise. #battletech #mechwarrior
A Hoplite Battlemech pictured next to its Alpha Strike stats, atop a glacial background
Next up is Sgt. Jack Dawson's Hoplite. The former heir to a Canopian business conglomerate, Dawson turned down the role traditionally held by the women of his family to embrace his true self. #battletech #mechwarrior #miniatures
A modified Blackjack mini painted in the colors of the Red Death, pictured next to its alpha strike stats
A Classic BattleTech sheet for the modified Blackjack
Really excited to use this kitbashed Blackjack I put together a while back. What had been SRM tubes are now bristling with small lasers, and a repurposed Ebon Jag omnipod now houses a plasma rifle. This kind of ad-hoc engineering is what makes the Periphery such a fun sandbox to play in!

Playing around with some of Davinci's options has been a lot of fun. Thinking about doing up my own HUD later, but this stock one isn't too shabby.
A band of pirate BattleMechs deploy on the outskirts of a city.
Editing editing editing!
Thanks to our wonderful Patreon backers, we have acquired lights! Shooting for episode 1 will begin in earnest tomorrow! So excited!
A miniature Gladiator BattleMech, pictured next to its Alpha Strike stats, atop a glacial background
Sgt. Dragomir Lambert's Gladiator. A cheerful man with a booming laugh, Lambert is one of the most talkative MechWarriors in the Arcadian Rangers. He likes spicy food and redlining his 'Mech's heat gauge, earning him quite the fiery reputation.

Be a MechWarrior, they said.
It'll come with prestige, they said.
A noble title, even, they said.
Here I am, still driving a ForestryMech -_-
A crosscut industrialmech pictured next to its alpha strike stats, atop a glacial background
Next up is one of the opfor 'Mechs, a Crosscut industrial mod! Is it fast? No! Well armed? No! Does it have armor? Also no! Tune in to find out what happens!

Working on the stat cards for each mini featured in episode 1! Learned about chromakeying and I'm excited to add a new tool to the toolbox.
Let's start things off with the Arcadian Rangers' commander: Col. MacKenzie Griffin
#battletech #mechwarrior
Just wrapped up the first combat of the campaign!
Next up is scripting, recording, storyboarding, and then going back and getting any extra footage and pics I need before jumping into editing.
They are indeed!

Eyes up MechWarriors!
v1.1 of the Map Campaign Rules makes changes to the method of hex capture, adds additional features to FOBs and airbases, and introduces Mission Templates, which reflect the different ways a force can interact with Resource Points to reflect the priorities of its mission.
Oh Squadron Strike looks really cool! I already have a bunch of ideas for how I'd use that on the channel. And the minis look fun to paint too!
Making a note of this, it'd be something really neat to integrate after campaign 1.
Awesome work!
I would like to expand at some point and do content for Lancer and perhaps some of the Battletech RPGs, like MechWarrior: Destiny. I've even batted around the idea of running a Star Trek Adventures campaign. But production for TTRPGs is a whole extra layer, and I think it's best to start small.
Hello #battletech Bluesky!
Just started production on season 1 of Periphery Wargaming, where I (coffeelock) will be showcasing an emergent map campaign using Alpha Strike. The house rules for the map campaign are available for free download on my Patreon!
