That's a pretty good testimonial. Thank you for taking the time to share it with me.

They do make communication more efficient, as long as everyone understands the definition. If they don't, then acronyms and initials quickly make the communication inefficient, or worse, make the person that isn't in the know feel excluded. In my professional life, I spend a lot of my time translating acronyms and trying to help people navigate the confusion of not knowing what things mean and wondering if they're in over their head, all due to the constant use of jargon. My suggestion is to definite your acronyms the first time you use them or, if it's a short message, spell the whole thing out and don't mention the abbreviation at all.

I don't know what the implied demographic is, but I assume I am not in it. I suppose that vibe is part of why I don't feel the desire to venture further into the fediverse.

I would have assumed the audience for this post is TTRPG nerds.

What is a pigeon totem? It sounds made up.

For anybody else that hates needless acronyms, FOSS apparently stands for Free and Open Source Software.

Yes, original Battletech was simulating large scale mech warfare with collectible minis (let's face it though, most people just liked to paint and have them). The Battletech RPG (to my understanding) is that flavor adapted to a TTRPG. If you like mechs and video gaming, I encourage you to check out the MechWarrior series. It is the video game adaptation of Battletech.

The site appears to be back up now. And yes, at the very basic level, all these settings involve mechs. Lancer would probably be closer in theme to Evangelion, if you wanted to run it that way. Battletech would be a crunchy cousin, due to its roots as a war game.

I would like an excuse to buy Battletech, but just can't do it when I could play Lancer instead. Can anyone convince me I'm wrong?

I think I'll try this. Thanks for sharing!

You are welcome. I think the awareness of potential deals outweighs the risk of being spammy.

One of the player characters is a clone that was grown in a mindflayer laboratory.
