Unofficial FFG/EDGE Fiction Anthology

Hi,

In light of Fantasy Flight Games changing their site and nuking easy access to the 5th edition fictions, I thought I'd repost the link to the big PDF fiction collection I put together starting during Covid.

This contains all of the FFG/EDGE fictions in publication order (I had originally tried to put them in chronological order, but as more stuff was out of timeline, or set in the past, it wasn't feasible). The stories are as close to "as published" as they can be. I made some slight edits here and there, mostly formatting, italicizing, or capitalization for consistency. The largest "change" I made in any story was the order of Vassal Family names. The only thing that I have missed completely is the art used in the original releases, since there was no good way to transfer that into the PDF.

This also contains the Aconyte fictions up until "Tales of the Unicorn." I am intending to add the Halloween fiction and "Coiled Fates" when I can. The actual link will not change when I update the document, and is the same it's always been, so if you have previously bookmarked it, then you don't have to worry. It also contains two unofficial Halloween stories, which are not canon to the FFG or Aconyte Canons.

The only other issue is that "The Impossible Task" the choose your own adventure storyline thing that was done instead of a story tournament during lockdown, has also been nuked. So that link leads nowhere. The results are in the document, but there is no way to play through the story or check the results yourself anymore.

Hope this makes it easier to find the fictions for anyone looking for them. Please let me know if anyone has any feedback.

Closest to Target Time yet.

I was at my local convention this past weekend, and entered the speed build contest at the "Gunpla Hangar" (a conference room in the hotel attached to the convention center with tables and lights set up for gunpla building). They do this using 30 ML kits they provide. I built the Tecprot here, and managed to get the entire body together within the 30 minute timer. The only thing I was missing was the weapon and the shield.

Interesting, and not helpful for this, was that the tecprot's pieces were largely spread across two sets of runners (A1, A2, C1, C2), so I ended up doing a fairly large amount of picking up runners and putting them back down, which likely slowed me down. Otherwise, I have a lot of cleanup to do in him, and probably in need of paint, since I know I have some stress marks on him.

How does everyone else do at the "30 minute timer" for building these guys? This is my farthest kit, last time I got arms and most of one leg on a Verdenova, and yhe year before I only got upper body finished on an Alto flight type.

Hi r/Mecha

I recently bought the Mecha Mania bundle on Humble, but already owned a copy of M.A.S.S. Builder, so I have a spare Steam code available if anyone is interested. I wanted to make sure it got to someone who would appreciate it. Code is gone, so now just a MASS Builder thread.

If anyone doesn't know, M.A.S.S. Builder is a third-person arena battler where you customize and build your own mecha, gathering resources to tune your stats to be able to work through a pretty good story. It is heavily inspired by Armored Core, but has a very robust customization system.

So aside, from the Code, I guess this is just a general thread about the game?
