The Hammers of the North

 

 

As Dream Pod 9's Art Director, one of the real pleasures of producing the new series of Field Guides for the factions of the Heavy Gear Universe is revisiting some canonical designs and attempting to further enrich them. Part of this is seeing whether the faction logo or emblem can simply be nuanced, modernized, or whether it can be detailed in a way that touches on some of the faction characteristics in more detail.

We’ve taken all of the current errata posted across our Gear UP e-zines and books, and consolidated them into a single file for easy access. In addition to the errata file which also includes the Post 1940 Upgrades for the North and Peace River, we have also made available the Duelist Rules from Perfect Storm and the Veteran Survivor & League Rules from Terra Nova Gambit as a free download for our fans. Lastly, the Beta Threat Values published in Gear UP 5 are included here for ease of access. Don’t forget that you can download the Heavy Gear Blitz Core Rules Field Manual for free on Drive Thru RPG.

The Pod Chatter

Pod Chatter Interview with Mark Perre

 

This week on the Pod Chatter I sat down with Mark Perre from Pod Squad Las Vegas in our new segment, The Pod Squad Spotlight! The Heavy Gear gaming community in Las Vegas is huge! At any one time they can have up to 60 people playing Heavy Gear! Wow is all I can say. Mark really knows how to bring out the best in the Las Vegas Heavy Gear community. Here is the full interview with Mark Perre:

 

Q: What is your name and where are you from?

Mark Anthony Perre, Las Vegas, NV

 

Q: How long have you been playing Dream Pod 9 Games and what game did you start with?

Oddly enough I saw my first post on this subject on Avatar Forums, I started with Heavy Gear Blitz April 3, 2010. I purchased a Kodiak model and it was so cool I had to build on the army.
