The newest DLC for Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries has arrived. The Dragon's Gambit is upon us. Join us for a complete unmodded playthrough of the DLC that continues the storyline of the base game and previous DLCs. The Davion/Steiner Alliance is trying to build on their successes against the Capellan Confederation with an invasion of the Draconis Combine. Our protagonist's past actions are called to account when the Combine gives us an offer we can't refuse, join the defense of the Dragon and clear the slate or lives our live in fear, constantly looking over our shoulder for the reckoning. The DLC includes new missions, a new chassis, and new variants for existing mechs as well as changes to the instant action mode. Let's jump in and see what the DLC has to offer.

I am Mellowseven and I'd like to welcome you to a Shadowrun Returns Let's Play! Hairbrained Scheme's Shadowrun Returns is a great RPG set in the Shadowrun universe. It uses the XCom turn based combat system and is infinitely moddable. This first story will be played primarily as a vanilla play through but we will be adding some mods as we continue and ultimately we will be playing player created adventures!

The Trondheim 9 are comprised of myself, Ryana, and our channel members. The goal of this series is to play through the Kestrel Lancers DLC campaign and then head up north to start the Rise of Rasalhague DLC when it drops towards the end of the month. We are running a mostly vanilla save as I expect that the mods will all be broken when the new DLC arrives. The mods we are running can be found below as well as the list of our channel members, their pilot call signs, and their personal mechs for the series. This series was suggested by our members.

MechWarrior 5: Mercencaries is a real-time combat, battlemech simulator with rpg elements based on the Battletech tabletop franchise. At the time of writing this (9 aug 2020) the game is still an epic exclusive although a steam launch is in the near future.
The game itself supports modding with the developers making the entire Unreal Engine tool kit available for modders. The Epic store now also supports modding and while most MechWarrior mods are still on NexusMods.com there are a handfull available on the Epic store. We are playing with Merc Tech game overhaul which is availble on Epic and NexusMods.
Merc Tech includes a Mechlab that allows changing engines, cooling, internal structure, armor, and gyros. It has a full crit system, different ammo and firing mods, as well as additional weapon variation. One of my favorite additions from the mod is heat effects including slowing the mech down, shutdowns, and ammo explosions for you and the AI alike.
I plan on this being a longish term playthrough of the game (more than one month) released Mon-Fri. I will be avoiding story missions and skipping through story dialogue while treating the game as a sandbox career mode.

We run what I think is going to be a small easy battlefield mission in a Quickdraw and then hop into a twin Coffin Rifle equiped Jagermech to run the "Uprising Quelled" high value contract despite the fact that we are still a little bit light to run it.

Football Manager 2019 | 1FC Kaiserslautern : From the Ashes - Episode 12 | Mellowseven Let's Play
1FC Kaiserslautern is on the brink of dissolving. Rising expenses incurred with a stadium renovation for the World Cup have made it increasingly difficult for the team to compete. According to Forbes magazine if the team misses out on promotion to the 2nd league of German football this year they might fold. We managed to achieve that promotion and are now in Fussball Liga 2. The money is better and dissolution is not imminent but for the teams immediate future to be assured we need to work our way back up to the Bundesliga.

Partisans 1941 is the newest game from the developer Alter Games and publisher Daedalic Entertainment. It was released on Steam on Oct 14, 2020. This videos were recorded on Launch day and as of writing this on Oct 16th, it has received "Very Positive" reviews on Steam.
The events of Partisans 1941 take place behind the German lines on the Eastern Front during WW2. The game utilizes a real time combat system with a "bullet time" slow down rather than a full pause. The developers call this a "tatical pause." Partisans is a small unit tactics game with heavy stealth elements. It also includes some base building and resource management and crafting in between the combat missions. Partisans 1941 uses a top down, 3/4 view with a free moving camera.
But is it any good? Let's find out and dive in with our First Look at Partisans 1941!
