Херб брякнул, что Аресские конвенции недействительны вот уже столетия (хм, мне казалось, что наемники при поддержке КомСтара выкрутили остальным руки еще после 1 НВ, и все согласились, что придерживаться их положений все равно стоит)

Вопрос Корпарти - каково это когда твой рассказ публикуют?
ответ - Танцевал по дому серьезно Восторг и ужас

Валлпаперы из 76 и страт опса скоро будут, но приоритет для них низок

Эревон: ожидаю большую кучу конвертов для бкорпса...

совет корпарти для начинающих -помимо пиши, шли, повторяй.
Мой опублиткованный - шестой или седьмой. Пиши много, что-то да пролезет.
Процент отвергания для меня - шесть к одному. Выше если слишком страшно, или связность страдает.

Какие приближающиеся продукты вы ждете с нетерпением?
Ром: все.

как вы выбираете мехи для рассказов? По внешнему виду, по способностям, или по Ну, куритяне всегда пользуют "драконы"?

Ром: если честно, то как лучше для истории, или чтоб круто выглядели, или я картинку на CSO увидал. Мои рассказы о людях а не о мехах.
Корпарти: Для Цитат мне был нужен Блэкджек. остальные должны были иметь ту же скорость, и муж должен был мочь прыгать.
Рэндал: по фракции, затем самый малоизвестный
Мохан, Рэндаллу приходилось бить меня газетой по носу, чтоб я перестал везде пихать "Атласы"

Ленивый зад Киллэни (типа был занят другими проектами) все еще не дописал Лекса Атреуса - 30% А обещал к концу года. Еше в планах два рассказа по пехоте и танкам (отдельные) и еще Иррегуляров Хаоса (планы на полгода 2009)

По иррегулярам, - парочка идей без особых суперсобытий между на чем брошено и Ангел Реквиемом, но любой кто читал Ride of Chimera знает где они осядут. Пока неясно лишится ли Реема Мангуста, но ее внучка Алетея в ДА пилотирует "Танатос"

Парду работает над рассказом Recruitment, два рассказа по Джихаду в редактуре, и никаких Росомах пока начальство не потребует.
Хочет покрыть историю Ягуаров Фиделисов. У него есть идея, что читатьели полюбят. История через что прошли ягуары, чтоб стать фиделисами это круто.

Хисторикалсы все еще в планах.

Вопрос Эревону, увидим ли мы продолжение "Снайпера"
Возможно, у меня набросан план на другой рассказ, но перед ним по графику столько всего.

Любимый мех?
Биас: Требучет ненавижу ЛАМы
Эревон? Все
Саммервиль: Баньши
Ром: Архангел ненавижу Бандерснатч
Киллэни: Дайр баг мой серьезно любимый мех Мангуст
Рндалл:есть приязнm с бfньши 3S
Харди: Скарабус
Оустейн: Катапульта С1
парду - старый Арчер


Что будет после Джихада пока висит в воздухе, но пост джихад/до ДА обдумывается.

HABEAS2> Sacrifice of the job, I suppose
Erewhon> Wait, there's a GAME!?
Sagittaire: To all the writters: What are you most excited to cover/write about beyond the jihad?
bpardoe870> I really would like to cover the history of the Smoke Jaguars / Fidelis. I have the story idea and it's something I think the fans would love. The story of what the survivors of the Jaguars go through to become the Fidelis is very cool.

Euphonium: How often do you guys get to play CBT? For fun,rather than rules testing?
Precentor_Martial> Actually I consider myself very lucky. I went far, far too long without actually playing the game at all beyond little playtest sessions here and there. But my son and his best friend over the last year have blossomed into huge CBT fans and they've 'forced' me to start running a campaign. So at least twice a month I'm playing the game. In fact listening to my son and his friend going through the new Salvage and Repair rules from SO following the end of a scenario made this geek dad proud. ahahha...

Erewhon> Ten minutes left, folks... get your questions in now!
Sagittaire: To all the writters: What are you most excited to cover/write about beyond the jihad?
kit_Hartford> I'll echo what Blaine said earlier about the historical eras - writing Fall From Grace, set in the early Star League, was a blast and something I'd like to do more of.

UTSU: I was to ask about the foreign languages translations and about the "official" pages related (like the Spanish). There are possibilities of changes? The Spanish is outdated (like 8 months...).
Precentor_Martial> Unfortunately all those 'official' pages are fan run. So we've no real way to hold them to task for updating their material. I've also been so busy with other things that I've not had the time to go and try and take them to task and then 'remove' their official status if I don't hear anything.

Euphonium: KevinK, Where would I find To Ride the Chimera
KeVinK> I had to get my copies on e-Bay. Roc dropped the MechWarrior line of novels right after mine came out (they wanted to drop it when they saw Jason's, but I had a contract....) and as nearly as I can tell it's not in print. Never got an author's copy and the Books-A-Million and B&N here in Wilmington each got -- and sold -- four copies and are not ordering any more Roc MechWarrior books

JM_Hardy> Nice try, Killiany. You still get to be the writer who almost ended MWDA . . .
trboturtle: When are the new submission gudlines for BC going to be posted?
Erewhon> They were modified as needed a month or two ago. "New" means simply modified from the previous. Nothing major was changed--I'm just a bit more of a stickler about format than other people. ;) Also, the Style Guide got one or two updates and I brought some of the other static pages more in line with a current website.

JM_Hardy> While only the power of Steve can bring it back . . .
AER: Any big plans for the "Historicals" or the "Starterbook" series? Or they both have been put on the back burner for a while?
HABEAS2> As I mentioned just a short while ago, the Historicals are still in our future plans. Not so sure about the Starterbooks at this time.

raven: Any of you Fallout 3 love it/hate it (I figured a different than CBT question)?

HABEAS2> I don't play it, sorry
GhostBear> Fallout 3? Not played it. Now, if someone wanted to buy me a Xbox 360...
wolfhound_88: erewhon: are we gogin to see any more of "Sniper"?
Erewhon> It's possible... I do have an outline sketched for another story... but it's got a LOT of stuff in front of it.

Øystein> I've loved Fallout ever since the 'spirital ancestor' Wasteland came out long long long time ago. (and I love Dr Who).
starfleet: A weird one, for any one there: if some how a Mechwarrior 5 or Mechcommander 3 Computer game was made, as writers which part of the universe would you like to see done?
GhostBear> Doesn't really matter to me. Blowing 'Mechs up is fun regardless of era. :)

Sagittaire: To all TPTB: Favorite mech? Only get one pick!
HABEAS2> Trebuchet

trboturtle: What other games is CGL working on that would intrest us?
Erewhon> All of them, of course.

Kit_deSummersVille> Banshee.
five_corparty> hunchback. way too versatile not to use in a story.
Sagittaire: To all TPTB: Favorite mech? Only get one pick!
GhostBear> Archangel.

KeVinK> Dire Bug
Sagittaire: To all TPTB: Favorite mech? Only get one pick!
Precentor_Martial> mmm...that's hard. So, so many. But I've got a soft spot a mile wide for the BNC-3S. So, so many great memories from back when I could play CBT every day for hours on end. ;-)

JM_Hardy> Scarbarus. Thanks to the DHMC.
Euphonium: How many Historicals were being kicked around, and what eras?
HABEAS2> Yes. (You didn't really expect a solid answer to this, did you?)

kit_Hartford> Cliched, but I'd have to say Warhammer
KeVinK> or the Warhammer 40k
Øystein> Favorite Mech: CPLT-C1.
glitterboy2098: once the jihad is done, will CBT be jumping straight to the MWDA period, or will there be gradual coverage of the interveining period?
HABEAS2> That is actually up in the air at the moment, although post-Jihad/pre-MWDA projects have been considered

Wasp_1: I am not sure if it has been asked in an earlier blog, but are there plans for R.Charrette to write any new battletech?
Erewhon> We hope so, but that's up to him, of course.

wolfhound_88: to all TPTB: wht mech do you hate the most?
HABEAS2> LAMs

bpardoe870: Old school Archer

trboturtle: What other games is CGL working on that would intrest us?
Precentor_Martial> Well we've got a lot of things in the mix, but most of them are not far enough to announce in any shape. That leaves Leviathans as one of the games we've announced that many a CBTer might enjoy.

Euphonium: Was hopeing for a less vague answer, but knew I wouldn't get a specific.

KeVinK> is there a reason no quetions are being sent my way?
wolfhound_88: to all TPTB: wht mech do you hate the most?
GhostBear> Bandersnatch. I mean, really.

Euphonium: And what about the 'Mech makes it your favourite?
HABEAS2> It was the first Mech I played when I was introduced to BattleTech

Euphonium: And what about the 'Mech makes it your favourite?
GhostBear> Because it won't die. At least, not when I run one. :)

starfleet: given the whole robotech live action movie (just gotta ask) Will we -ever- see mechs on the big screen? and hypothetically which story do you think would be best told on the big screen (Clan, Civil war, Succession, Jihad... ) ?
HABEAS2> I leave that kind of discussion to others. Fact is, I personally don't care if we see a BT movie or not. If we did, though, I would hope they'd be smart and start with the Warrior Trilogy

Aahz: for Hardy, when will we see more DHMC?
JM_Hardy> Erm--soon. I gotta figure out my schedule for the first few months, then squeeze them in. Hopefully, this Helfers fella will help me get some things figured out . . .

Euphonium: And what about the 'Mech makes it your favourite?
Precentor_Martial> Well...first of all, for the 3025 era it's one of the best of the assault 'Mechs. Second, I got a 'letter to the editor' published in BattleTechnology back in like 88 or 89 where I talked about 'my' merc group grabbing a BNC-3S...that pretty much cemented it in my mind as one of the coolest 'Mechs ever. ;-)

HABEAS2> Quick! Someone talk to Kevin! He's getting lonely!
UTSU: In every chat do you drop some previews (images, a page...) from future products. I've been late, so... any previews ::wink ?
Precentor_Martial> Um...usually we do. Unfortunately I totally forgot the chat was today and didn't get a sign off from Dave for such a preview...'really' wanted to preview the RPG cover...but gonna have to wait on that one.

HABEAS2> I sent several reminders, Randall, and your wife organizes these chats... How did you forget!? :-P
starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
HABEAS2> Cameron St. Jamais. Perfect foil for Apollyon.

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
Kit_deSummersVille> Well, Randall put Kit deSummersVille in the universe. :) I guess Phelan Kell, talk about adapting to changing circumstances all the time.

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
five_corparty> Well, I like VSD, because so many things happen when he's around ("and then things get worse...")

wolfhound_88: for Kev: is reema ever short of it being blown up giving up her mongoose?
KeVinK> Well, her grandaughter Alethea pilots a Thanatos -- don't know where the Mongoose is. I'll have to give that some thought. Oh, and favorite "real" 'Mech of mine is Mongoose.

Erewhon> All right, friends, last call! Time's up, and people will start leaving soon.
starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
Øystein> I'd have to say Ragnar Magnusson.

Kit_deSummersVille: Kevin-Is it hard being the least popular writer? :-D
KeVinK> Not at all. Nobody snipes at the least target

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
bpardoe870> Jamie Wolf -- from the old days. Bob did a great job with those earlier Dragoon's stories.

JM_Hardy> There's something I like about the fake Thomas Marik--he got power the wrong way, but then did a fine job with it. He has a kind of misguided dignity that I like.
Euphonium: Which CHR do you feel sorriest for?

JM_Hardy: Kevin: What makes you so awesome? Is it your beard?
KeVinK> That and my complete lack of humor

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
five_corparty> Didn't mean to hit return... But I think my next favorites are isis and Galen: they're the "wedge antilles" of this universe- not front line, but always there, you know??

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
GhostBear> Don't have a favorite, really - it's the universe that's attractive, which makes all of the characters fun to enjoy. And no, I don't dislike any of them, despite my 'hate' of a particular unit.

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
Precentor_Martial> Actually I've always had a love-hate relationship with Theodore. Heir to the Dragon is one of my all time favorite CBT novels (even now) and the growth of his character across the years (from the fan perspective in me) is one of the coolest and best in the universe. The developer in me hates him, though, as he was too nice and started turning BattleTech to PeaceTech with all his "new thinking". ;-)

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
kit_Hartford> A tie between MItchi Noketsuna and Thomas Marik (either incarnation)

starfleet: any: who is your favorate 'core' character other then one you've created yourself and why?
KeVinK> Martha Zuritas

Sagittaire: To all the writers: Any character you would love to kill off? Why?
GhostBear> Yes, and because it would bring about a very cool twist to things.

Euphonium: That just makes Theodore more neccesary, surely? AS a contrast to all the schemers and back-stabbers?

Erewhon> And that it! Please hold you questions, and we'll let our guest clear out their queues and we'll cut moderation and be off!
Sagittaire: To all the writers: Any character you would love to kill off? Why?
bpardoe870> Kai Allard.

Sagittaire: To all the writers: Any character you would love to kill off? Why?
HABEAS2> All of them, sooner or later, MUST die. In writing some of the more recent sourcebooks, it became apparent that neglecting to weed out even the minor names had produced centegenarians all over the place. And then there's the characters that just NEED to go (Victor Steiner-Davion, I'm liooking at YOU). I'm really a butcher when it comes to main characters....

starfleet: 5c: I agree with Isis and Galen.. the people who in their own way are often forgotten and yet change the course of wars... even when everything is against what they are trying. Plus with Kat in glaens story it gets intresting/er.

starfleet: galen )

wolfhound_88: for kev: alethan's thanks, woudl taht be Jake's tantos orignally?
KeVinK> No idea. I had a crush ont the Thanatos for a while. SHould have gone with the readers' choice and given Jake a Galoglas

Erewhon> Now if someone would just nuke Kaumberg and be done with it.... *sigh* ;)
trboturtle: What other games is CGL developing?
Precentor_Martial> We've announced the following games: Eclipse Phase is a new post-apocalyptic RPG of transhumanism, horror and conspiracy (see www.eclipsephase.com for more information). Leviathans is a boardgame/miniatures game of an alternate 1910 history as dreadnaughts of the sea take to the sky in might battles. We're also launching a series of casual games, the first of which is Paparazzi!, where you, your camera and the Bill of Rights allow you to try and expose the worst possible moments in a celebrities life.

Sagittaire: To all the writers: Any character you would love to kill off? Why?
KeVinK> Victor Davian Oh, wait..... Never mind

glitterboy2098: with new novels now possible, will we see more stackpole stories in the future?
Precentor_Martial> Yes.

JM_Hardy> I'm so honored that I actually got to kill VSD off. I feel a little bad that the others didn't get the chance . . .
wolfhound_88: to all TPTB: wht mech do you hate the most?
Precentor_Martial> mmm...again, that's a hard one. I still might have to fall back to the standard 3025 JagerMech. Paper armor, crappy weapons...the number of times I've fielded one can probably be counted ofn one hand in 20+ years.

AER: Any chance to see some of the larger Battlecorps series in the print novels form?
Erewhon> Anything's possible, but that's very unlikely.

Kit_deSummersVille> I hate the Hoplite. Like a Griffen, only slower and less powerful.
Erewhon> And we're clear!
>> munnie has joined room #PublicBattleChat
wolfhound_88> thanks for chatting with us guys

- Клевый был чат.
- Странно, что обошлось без вопросов про домашние кланы.
- Эй, Бен, когда уже там флотилия Татити вторгнется в домашние миры?
- В любой момент, Кенни.
- А чо, Виктор в ДА умер?
- Да. Подскользнулся на куске мыла.
- Он убился об политику.
- А моими любимыми произведениями по ДА были "Волки-Охотники" и "Оседлать Химеру" (с) Кевин Киллиани, их непосредственный автор.
- Да, в "Оседлать Химеру" Кевин проявил разные свои таланты. Возьмите хоть ту лесбийскую сцену...

Собственно, вот и все, что оттуда можно выжать :D
