It's been a week so I figured I'd have a Work in Progress post for my own player character for Lancer. Here's my take on a Chomolumga, the tech savvy variant of the Everest. We're kitted out with two assault rifles for that lovely Reliable, and finishing it with a light Nexus for the matching range. I've also given it manipulator arms to type away on keyboards and other nerdy things without compromising pilot safety.
Basically I took a ton of 3d assets and mashed and posed them in a terrible 3d modeler program. Some of the pieces I remember are Battletech Black Knight torso and Assassin legs, Armored core heads someone made for Tau suits, parts from the free mech package Filamentio made (great stuff), and bits from the Modular Mech campaign on myminifactory. Since not all the parts are free, I wouldn't be able to distribute this one if people wanted it, sadly.
This guys role will mainly be to play support, speccing into Swallowtail to support my partners rip and tear Blackbeard build. I've essentially just laid down the basecoat to get an idea of color placement

In this episode of Lancer Custom Werks, Chomolungma, a GMS Pattern I variant made to hack faster than anything else, what can do you do with this frame?

I got into Lancer and i'm using a mech that doesn't have memes, so I made my own based on my experiences.

May 29, 1953 ... 2023
70 years ago, Mount Everest/Chomolungma conquered.
Indeed it was a British-made 33 mm Smiths A409 wrist watch which was worn ON the top of Everest but Rolex 6098 watches were worn/carried TO the top of Everest.
Since 1933, Rolex had been sponsoring Himalayan expeditions and secured a patent for the “Explorer” in January 1953. Remember it could have been Rolex first ON top of Mount Everest if British climbers Charles Evans and Thomas Bourdillon made it on May 26, 1953 but had to return after being very close to the summit. Three days later Edmund Hillary & Tenzing Norgay made it to the top!
The 200+ years old Pen-Y-Grwyd hotel in Snowdonia - Wales was the birthplace & homebase of British Mountaineering. The place where training and testing of oxygen equipment for those Himalayan expeditions took place. A wonderful setting which was revisited by the 1953 expedition members during anniversaries!

Mapped: The deadly geography of Mount Everest
Some bodies are known landmarks, as Green Boots used to be: “The German” on the second step of the north face route, the “Saluting Man” near the south summit, the “Icefall Body”, in the Khumbu glacier field, and “Sleeping Beauty” on the southeast ridge, until she too was removed from view in 2007.
Zooming out from individual casualties to the overall death toll, the dead of Everest start to form a morbid geography of sorts, which does more than simply horrify. As these maps show, patterns emerge, and lessons can be learned.
The most obvious one is from the sheer number of dead: to be highly motivated is not enough. To climb Everest and make it down alive, you must also come highly trained and prepared, be of sound mind and judgment, and have an appreciable dose of good luck.
