I played a Tukayyid game with Flechs automations on last night and I found that yes, while were not rolling dice, it did greatly speed up the game as well as prevent mistakes and oversites. If there were some dice rolling animations, and some mech weapon sound FX it would really make the automation a lot more enjoyable I think.
I absolutely love Flech's! I use them frequently, even when I just need to see a graphical representation of a Battlemech Record Sheet to assess the capabilities of a unit in question.
I reckon once you are well versed in how to use the automation, it makes it go by much faster. But to me, it removes about 98% of the excitement. Cool feature if you're trying to test something really fast, but not something I'd choose if I were sitting down for a game night with friends.
@@BattleBound Definitely prefer dice and sheets myself, but sometimes your gaming time is pretty limited, and the automation has helped us to get in at least a few games. Any Battletech is better than no Battletech.
I believe there will also be the option to play ACES w/Classic Battletech, at least this is what I have picked up so far from what I've seen. It was mentioned during the livestream the other day with Six Sides of Gaming.
Very cool upload. Glad your friend and daughter are well. It's all about silver linings brother. Cars are replaceable... happy they walked away from it.
@@BattleBound I'll third the suggestion that you reach out to tex. He seems to like helping people connect with good causes. Hell, the legion was helping save a corgi the other day. If it helps your friend, it doesn't hurt to ask.
Yeah, but that's okay. The game was going badly for my opponent, and it only took another 2 turns for it to become apparent that a win was next to impossible. I shut it down before those 2 turns because there was no one viewing and the fundraiser wasn't really moving. So I called it a night.
@@theblackpantslegion I'm gonna work on some other videos and hopefully have one or so up by the end of the week to help boost the signal. Maybe a painting vid.
Also... my bad, I thought this was a comment on the live stream lol. You didn't miss anything here, this is my tutorial for how to use Flech's Sheets digital record sheets. 😅
I didn't, because as I recall there wasn't much of an interest for it. But I made this so long ago that I could totally just be misremembering that. It's honestly been so long since I used automation that I'd have to kinda Forrest Gump my way through it again to re-learn like riding a bike lol. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed and there's lots of other fun tutorials if you have the time. 😁
Best wishes to your friend - sorry to hear about the accident and super relieved to hear no one was hurt! Heads up / FWIW : Many (but not all) automations have a setting for accepting manual rolls: th-cam.com/video/VQ-peQjWv3c/w-d-xo.html Also interesting to see "Flechs" made possessive (here and elsewhere) - wondering if it's related at all to the same US regional dialect-quirk responsible for things like Kroger's, Aldi's, Krystal's, etc. 🤔 Regardless, glad to hear it's been useful and thanks for the bump!

Agree about the automation & animations/sound FX as long as we could toggle those off.
Even though I couldn't donate this time, I still came to show moral support. Well, as moral as a lifelong Merc can be...
Great tutorial man. I play in a campaign with about 8 other players and they will get a kick out of this software. Thanks again.
I'm glad to hear. Please do stop by and tell me how it goes!
Very cool! What an awesome resource! Thanks!

Now this is cool! I had never even heard of this website. Thank you very much.
Tuck thanks this made it much easier to figure out!
Flechs is awesome, using the automation makes for one hell of a fast game.

@@andrewelk23 That's a fair point.
Would love to see them add Alpha Strike as this would be especially handy for Aces.

They will be homeless very soon if the car situation is not remedied. They are okay, but financially, they are not.
@@BattleBound you should get tex on it. They raised enough money for this guy to fix his flooded house in like one stream.
@@doublebassman123 I've considered it. I just feel bad asking.
@@BattleBound ask him privately, you don't have to publicize it if he turns you down.
@@BattleBound I'll third the suggestion that you reach out to tex. He seems to like helping people connect with good causes. Hell, the legion was helping save a corgi the other day. If it helps your friend, it doesn't hurt to ask.
I'll have to try this out. I have been looking for a one stop mech data sheet website. This might cover most of what I'm after.
I tell ya, it does darn near everything.
Did I miss this?

@@BattleBound ah man, that sucks. Well, hit it again later my man. See what you can do

Great and handy video. I like the automated stuff because it saves so much time! Did you ever put out the automation feature video ?
