Went to Planet Comicon downtown
It was pretty neato
The COG soldier I never got the character's name and the announcer just kept calling him 'The Bear'. He got second place I believe overall. Ornstein got first for video games. ODST guy never joined up, just there to hang out with COG guy and the Mandalorians were in the Star Wars area taking pictures.
This has that really nice upbeat tempo Hong Kong Streets does along with some traditional instruments. I loved how no matter what you did in Hong Kong, the music would stay fast and upbeat, even if you were just looking around in an alley or something.
I also feel this would make some really nice map music for a Bamboo forest multiplayer map. Spring time, giant bamboo shoots throughout the map and near midway there could be a big pond with large sight lines in an otherwise low visibility map. It would have to have bright lighting, even in the forest, maybe noon or just after, a few large trails and several smaller ones cutting through the forest. Probably have a creek waterfall that flows into the pond as well with good ambient sounds, the water and local wildlife. A small or medium size map, limited or no vehicles allowed.
I didn't touch Kantai until I got that drawing done and I got a battlesnail
I started thinking of how I could reimplement mechs into my setting. Currently I'm thinking they would break down into two types, 'Walkers' and 'Mobile Suits'. Walkers would be semi-squishy nukers, more like the 2142 mechs, 2-3 stories high and generally pretty manuverable, but can be killed by tanks rather easily, destroyable with infantry. The 'Mobile Suits' would be much larger and durable, designed more for prolonged engagements and soaking up damage, able to easily kill vehicles but have a harder time targeting infantry and have little to no air defenses making aircraft their hardest counter. Neither would be super common as the common dropships can't carry even a walker meaning it will need a larger or dedicated transport and would then likely only be fielded by the Army.
The alternative I thought before that is that the suits are rather rare, perhaps only one of each variant, very expensive and hard to produce but very powerful and hard to kill, making almost like a Hero unit for vehicle types. Best ways to deal with them would be to field your own or write off the battlefield and nuke it or bombard it from orbit until the target is gone.
I forget Erika I supposed to be a catgirl whenever I draw her it seems and I have to go back and add the ears and tail. Especially the tail.
After finally having trained my ships in preparation for 2-4 and having fit them with a more effective loadout, I finally beat 2-4, but I didn't manage to kill the last two Ru-class Battleships. My fleet did amazing damage all the way up until the boss, where there were no double attacks and scratch damage all around and my reward was yet another Kongou. I blew all my resources getting Mutsu leveled to Kai and everyone repaired. Also found out Kitakami was actually ready to Kai as well.

An attempt at a first person animation, that I noticed doesn't have any recoil and I can't easily fix that now so I'll probably never finish it.
