’Mech Manual: Shockwave SKW-4G
The SKW-4G was the first variant for the Shockwave SKW-2F. Earthwerks-FWL introduced it just one year after the initial production model, but its adoption was slow due to the experimental laser technology that it used. Despite the slower initial adoption, the SKW-4G has proliferated to just as many militaries as the SKW-2F.

’Mech Manual: Shockwave SKW-2F
The Shockwave SKW-2F entered production at Earthwerks-FWL in the Marik-Stewart Commonwealth just a couple of years after the end of the Word of Blake Jihad. While many of the Shockwaves produced bolstered the military of the newly independent Marik-Stewart Commonwealth, it was also offered on the open market in order to bolster the regional economy as militaries across the Inner Sphere rushed to rebuild after the destruction of the previous decade.
Thanks to those exports, the SKW-2F has been available to mercenaries and every Successor State other than the Lyran Commonwealth since its introduction and has continued to see widespread use through the rise of the ilClan.
Read This First
- The Shockwave is a hard-hitting medium ‘Mech thanks to its rotary autocannon
- Be careful about internal damage, you have an XL engine and three tons of unprotected explosives in your torso
- Use your mobility to stay at range against opponent’s with short-range firepower or rush in to punch against those with minimum ranges

Mobility
The Shockwave SKW-2F has fairly average mobility for its tonnage. It has 5 walking MP and 8 running MP, but is not equipped with any jump jets. That gives it the ability to hit a +3 target movement modifier while running even if it loses 1 MP to either terrain or turning. With its longer ranged weapons, that speed can be used to maintain range or to push in to melee to match the battlefield situation.
Durability
With 95% of the armor that a 50-ton chassis can mount, the Shockwave has a reasonably tough outer shell. It does have some limitations under its armor though. The Inner Sphere XL engine means that losing either side torso will take it out of the fight. It also carries three tons of explosive ammunition without any CASE protection. That means that a critical hit to its center torso has a 17% chance of destroying it, and a hit to the left torso an 11% chance. Luckily, the Shockwave has the tools to empty those bins quickly.
Weaponry
The SKW-2F has a trio of weapons with medium-to-long range. The LRM 10 with Artemis IV can begin to target enemies at 21 hexes, then the ER Large laser comes into play at 19 hexes, and finally the RAC/5 brings in the bulk of its firepower at 15 hexes. The minimum range of the LRMs end up conflicting slightly with the RAC. The ideal range for the autocannon starts at 5 hexes where the LRMs will be dealing with a +2 penalty to target numbers.
Maximum and Expected DamageAll of the Shockwave’s weapons are mounted on its torso. That reduces its firing arc, but also means that it doesn’t lose any firepower with the loss of an arm.
Maximum Damage for Firing ArcsThe Shockwave is not built for endurance. Firing at its full rate, it will burn through all of its rotary autocannon ammunition in less than 7 turns. Its LRM launcher can be fired for 12 turns before it is out of missiles. If a MechWarrior is expecting a longer engagement, then they should drop the number of RAC shots against more difficult target numbers in order to save ammunition for easier shots when damage can be maximized.
Heat Management
The SKW-2F has nearly balanced cooling and heat generation. An alpha strike of its weapons can generate 22 points of heat which is matched by its 11 double heat sinks. That means that it will only gain movement heat when alpha striking, and the RAC’s flexibility means that it can tune its heat generation by dropping to 4 or 5 shots in order to both stay heat neutral and conserve ammunition. Then if targets get too close, the LRM can be dropped from the firing pattern since its missiles have little chance of hitting at point-blank ranges anyways.
Heat-Adjusted Maximum and Expected DamageBrawling
The Shockwave is built to box. Both arms have fists with the battlefists quirk and all of its weapons are mounted in its torso. That means that it can fire everything while still delivering two improved punches for 5 damage each. It can also deliver kicks for 10 damage if it wants to focus damage on a target’s legs.
Miniature
A plastic miniature for the Shockwave SKW-2F is included in the 21st Centauri Lancers Command Lance force pack.

Compressing Jupiter’s Magnetosphere
Shaped by its strong internal magnetic field and the incoming solar wind, Jupiter has the largest magnetosphere in the solar system. It also has highly active aurorae at its poles, though they are most visible in ultraviolet wavelengths. A new analysis of Juno’s data shows that on 6-7 December 2022, Jupiter’s magnetosphere got compressed, coinciding with aurorae six times brighter than usual. The compression itself came from a shock wave in the incoming solar wind. (Image credit: NASA/JPL; research credit: R. Giles et al.; via Eos)

[Перевод] Три гуру веб-дизайна 90-х
С ростом популярности в 1997 году технологий Flash и CSS возникло три философии веб-дизайна. Дэвид Сигел продвигал «хаки», Джейкоб Нильсен стремился к простоте, а Джеффри Зельдман комбинировал элегантность с удобством пользования. Как и многие из первой волны веб-дизайнеров, Джеффри Зельдман, которому в начале 1997 года исполнилось 42 года, начинал свою карьеру в совершенно другой профессии. Изначально он был автором художественных книг, недолго поработал журналистом, пробовал себя в качестве разъездного музыканта, а потом десять лет посвятил рекламному бизнесу. «Сочинение текстов билбордов с цепляющей графикой — хорошая практика для веба, потому что в нём нужно доносить информацию мгновенно», — рассказывал он позже в интервью . Творческих людей наподобие Зельдмана привлекло в веб развитие мультимедиа ; сам он создал свой первый веб-сайт в 1995 году. «Благодаря гипертексту появился веб, благодаря графике он стал игровой площадкой для потребителей», — писал он на своём личном веб-сайте в конце 1996 года.

Veil Nebula
These glowing wisps are the visible remains of a star that went supernova about 7,000 years ago. Today the supernova remnant is known as the Veil Nebula and is visible only through telescopes. In the image, red marks hydrogen gas and blue marks oxygen. First carried by shock waves, these remains of a former star now serve as seed material for other stars and planetary systems to form.
