![]() That same year, the League's First Free Worlds Guards fielded several Areses when deployed on Marik, twice as many as the Dragoons gave Nikol. The new Dragoons leader, Colonel Henry Kincaid, gave six functional units, along with intel about them, to the Free Worlds League Captain-General Nikol Halas-Hughes Marik, though they still retained some for themselves. Īfter the Trial, Wolf's Dragoons salvaged a number of Areses, disassembling some to study and replicate them. ĭuring Terra's conquest, the Wolves salvaged an unknown number of Areses, managing to rebuild and repair some, using them in their Trial against Clan Jade Falcon most of them, ironically, were crewed by former bondsmen of the RAF. They proved to be a serious threat, stopping and even managing to make the Clanners retreat, but after the Wolves adjusted their tactics to them, all fell, one after another. The Republic made extensive use of the Ares during the Battle of Terra, especially in Operation Four Horsemen, against Clan Wolf. Upon gifting Julian the 'Mech, Devlin Stone warned him that keeping the machine in fighting trim was "a nightmare." Several Ares 'Mechs were deployed to Callison in 3149. Ī single Ares of uncertain configuration saw deployment in 3146 as part of Julian Davion's Dawn Guards. Additional production was planned for Mars, with the facilities on Devil's Rock set to be razed should invasion forces arrive on world. By 3145, the location of the factory had become a frontline world in danger of falling to a potential Clan Wolf invasion. Production of the 'Mech and its sister design, the Poseidon, continued on Devil's Rock at Rhodes Foundry. During the 3140s, the Ares had been deployed to various worlds neighboring the Republic's in covert raids and recon missions as part of the nation's efforts to keep potential invaders off guard. The Ares' origins were virtually unknown during its initial deployment with the Republic's Stone's Brigades and units stationed at its factory world on Devil's Rock. The Ares' appearance is due, in part, to its development cycle, which took place at nearly the same time as that of the Poseidon. ![]() The 'Mech's development began as Poseidon prototypes finished their trial runs in 3135. The 'Mech was conceived as an OmniMech, to allow it to be easier for its maintenance crew to service it and allow it to transport battle armor support elements. Produced in secret as part of the Republic's Rhodes Project, the Ares was based on development of the Poseidon Superheavy Tripod. ![]() The Ares is a Superheavy Class Tripod OmniMech, which was first produced by the Republic of the Sphere. ![]() ![]() ![]() And try to help as much as you can like what Keith did.

This is no easy passport for getting to grips with this relatively complex game.Įxisting fans are likely to have mixed feelings about it. The interface is a direct port from PC, and feels clumsy and unintuitive on touchscreen. There's a tutorial, which drowns you in reams of fake commentary but provides little in the way of useful information. Limited funds mean you start as the underdog, and even experienced players may struggle to maintain momentum over the opening games. In a tournament, by contrast, you'll be playing against all six of the different teams included in the initial release. Plus you can only play Humans against Orcs unless you shell out for the other teams. Once you know the rules, exhibition matches become laughably easy against the feeble AI. If you're playing alone, league play is the best way to go. Hence the appeal of a digital version, whether playing carbon or silicon-based opponents. Here you build a team from scratch, manage your players, and watch like a proud parent as they gain new skills and experience.īut of course a league implies lots of games, and that in turn implies lots of time. While one-off matches are fun, what every Blood Bowl player salivates after is league play. Proritising your moves is thus an essential skill, and every action a snake pit of terror. Fail and your turn ends, passing the initiative to the other team. Doing anything in Blood Bowl - throwing, catching, tackling, dodging - requires a dice roll for success. Much of this derives from the turnover system. And while its slow, deliberate pace feels a bad fit for the zany theme, enough madness remains to just about fill a box of frogs. It strikes an exquisite balance between careful strategy and exciting randomness. ![]() When you play Blood Bowl it's not hard to see why it's gained such a devoted following. And although the computer opposition remains weak, the game has blossomed as a popular way to play against human opponents online. Cyanide patched out most of those problems. Then Cyanide got hold of the licence and put out a widely derided turn-based version that was riddled with bugs and terrible AI.Īnd that's the game we've now got on iPad.

After doing some research I’ve found it’s most likely from too strong of development. The red splotch is weird, it seems to only affect highlights. So there is definitely something happening here.

Lengthening it by about 3 minutes, effectively pushes about 1 stop. 45 minutes is usually the perfect stand time for C-41 development. I also decided to pull the film in the C-41 process by about 1 stop. I was thinking maybe this red splotch is from developer not getting in through the layers, so I needed more developer and stronger mixtures. 63F, 42 minute total, agitate first minute, and then once at 20 minutes Re-expose with iPhone flashlight, for about 4 minutes.agitate first minute, and every 30 seconds after B/W developer heated and temp controlled at 105F.The results are interesting, but also unpredictable. So, I was really curious what would happen when I put it through this process. So many vibrant colors, and such deep blue skies. This is my favorite slide film for normal E-6 processing. That roll of film came out over developed, but otherwise pretty normal with no crazy weird color shifts. ![]() I also had a roll of C-41 film I was testing this process on. Note, my chemicals were completely fine through this process, I developed normal C-41 film afterwards with no bad results. I’m thinking that the film is over developed because CR200 can’t handle as much development as Provia maybe? But really I have no idea. Ok, so something definitely went wrong here. Why does the wall have a sort of glow to it where it meets the dark pavement? The last one is particularly interesting. Here’s some more pictures from hell for your entertainment: This one looks almost like it has color, but there is still a huge lack. It seems my developing tank temporarily became a portal to hell capable of imaging an alternate reality. What!? Yea, I have no idea what happened to the color spectrum either.

Definitely some expected color shifts, but an otherwise very normal looking image.Īnd below is the raw scan without any color correction other than whatever the scanner does automaticallyĪnd this film turned out very transparent, though I thought it could still use another half stop or so of development:Īfter I did this, I was confident that I could just raise the developer time a bit, maybe the temp as well, and hopefully get consistently good images from this process… well, no. Open tank and re-expose for 4 minutes about 6 inches over an iPhone flashlight.30 second agitation initially, with 4 agitations every 30 seconds after B/W developer temp controlled and heated to around 102F.B/W developer mixed 1:6 rather than the normal 1:9 (Arista Premium Liquid).I never made a blog post about this batch, but this was the last strip I processed of my test roll when first figuring this process out.

I get consistent pictures at least, but I can’t determine how to control these strange splotchy color shifts and highlight fogging. After doing my 3rd roll, I’ve found that I have no idea what is really happening in this process. I was really hoping that by the time I had most of the rolls developed, I’d have a fairly predictable and good (even if with wild colors etc) process figured out… Unfortunately, that is incorrect.
