[BT][HOOCH] The BattleTech Bartender's Guide
Camille Klein
Here's the BTech Bartender's Guide, as posted to RGM ages ago. Please
note that this covers such classic drinks as the PPC (the "Official"
version as written into the Warrior Trilogy by Mike Stackpole, as well as
another version that is decidedly less powerful), and a recipe designed
by yours truly for the Fusionnaire. I've also tacked a couple of new
drinks onto the end, and made an edit to the entry for the Gauss Rifle
(something that was added to the recipe at my suggestion shortly after it
was posted in 93-ish).
NOTE: I will happily add to this. HOWEVER--please make sure that all
drinks that you submit have something to do with the BTech universe (the
only reason I'm leaving the Pelican Shooter on this list is because
somebody once called the Jade Falcons "Chartreuse Pelicans"--I kid you
not). ANY drink names that are obscene will be edited--the idea is to
be imaginative, not rude. I have also edited these entries for spelling,
punctuation, etc--this is so that they are clearer and easier to
understand. :)
This will be posted to MoB Online as soon as I get Homesite up.

3 shots Stoli (it HAS to be Stoli or some other high-quality vodka)
1 shot Goldschlager
[this recipe came from an attempt to order a Steiner PPC one night when
Genghis and I took the Golfball out for dinner on his birthday. They
didn't have everclear, and they didn't have peppermint schnapps. So we
came up with this--and it was pronounced good.]
Pour into an old-fashioned or rocks glass and add ice.
==================
ER Large Laser
3 shots Stoli
1 shot Goldschlager
Club soda
Pour the hooch over ice into a highball glass. Fill glass the rest of
the way with club soda.
Inferno SRM-2
1 shot Sambuca
1 shot Amaretto
2 shots Goldschlager
2 coffee beans
Combine ingredients in a cordial glass (a wineglass will work if you
don't have one of these). Light 'er up and let 'er burn for six turns (1
minute) before extinguishing. Enjoy. You can also double or triple the
amount if you want an Inferno-4 or Inferno-6. In that case, the burn
time increases as follows:
Inferno-4: 9 turns (minute and a half)
Inferno-6: 12 turns (two minutes)
If you go for the 4 or 6, I suggest a pilsner glass (tall glass that
looks like an inverted cone). In any case, let the drink sit for a few
moments before drinking unless you want scalded tongue.

I'm pretty sure the Grasshopper, Banshee, and Stinger are availible
(they sound pretty familiar...).
Maybe the Flamer, and the Dragon's Breath. The names sound about
right for something a bartender would dream up.
Is JD-Green over 100 proof, though? For the Pelican Shooter to light
properly, doesn't it have to be over 50% alcohol by volume? What *is*
the cutoff percentage for a flaming alcoholic liquid anyways (I don't
set mine on fire, I just drink the damn stuff...)?

Heh. Check out the labels on a bottle of Everclear (190 proof Grain
Alcohol). "Do Not Drink Without A Mixer" "Do Not Expose To Heat" "Do
Not Drink Straight From The Bottle On New Year's Eve With A Lit Cigar

if you do light it, make sure to blow the flame out rather quickly.

shot--scorched the hell out of his mouth.

I dunno. What I /do/ recall is that the stuff is supposed to look really
icky. Maybe add a bit of tomato juice, a bit of stout, and then float
something which /is/ over 100 proof on top of the mixture...

Actually, no.
Saturday is the date of the World Famous Tuba House Halloween Party
(this year we've scaled down *considerably* to only 60 people;
previous years had 200+).

Well then, lets see about the power of blasphemy and desecration,
as pertaining to certain, shall we say, curses. If I desecrate X temples
to the Godmom while systematically wiping out the Mob[1]...Maybe
things will go faster if I can get the Mob #2 man to support me with the
rest of the Com'ies[2] to take her down...
How much will she take? Will the Godmom triumph over the son of
the devil[3]? With neither moderator nor XFAQ in sight, can she hope to
win?
Find out next on: Godmom vs. Vladdus, Part 1![4]
[1]Purposely capitalized that way.
[2]CoMies. Referenced both ways.
[3]Has something to do with Wallachia. Figure the rest.
[4]Knowing the history of some of the Godmom's characters,
they'd probably get res'd on me, perpetuating the cycle into
chapters. Kill the Godmom's mortal body, get overthrown
again. Kill the new avatar, get overthrown again. It's enough
to just want to Magic Jar her!

Ah, I haven't had the pleasure of playing any characters of my own
for awhile. Admittedly I wasn't much of a player in terms of _role_
playing, but I've since created and DM'd some truly detailed NPCs.
I'm best at writing histories and chronicles, so I give even minor
characters scads of background and motivation. It's my own world...

Anyone who whacks Turks would agree that whacking Turks is a good
thing. Greeks whack[ed] Turks, hence. . .
Not that I'm Turcophobic or anything, but whacking Turks is IMHO a
service to civilization. Of course, I'm still pissed off about the
Basileia ton Rhomaion.

Well, I'm still upset about what the Venetians did...even before
the 4th they were busy sending Crusaders after their trading
rivals...My guess is that Byzantium would've fallen anyway,
since few of their leaders were managing to do much more
than stopgap measures. Would have been interesting, though.

Hrmph. If The Bulgaroctonus hadn't left the Empire to his assinine
brother who let the damnable eunuchs run the whole military into the
ground, then the Empire wouldn't have lost Anatolia, and would still
be a going concern today. Would it be that much of a sacrifice to get

Yup.
Eriks Germanis
Bear's Snout Stout
1 pint dark ale
1 shot Stolichnaya
This is a basic boilermaker with ingredients altered to suit harsh Ghost Bear
tastes. In Milwaukee we have the Sprecher Brewery's Black Bavarian (6%) -
wonderful beer for the short dark days' libations. Guiness works well too.
Stow the pint in the freezer until just before the beer's surface ices over.
Freeze the vodka until syrupy.

I have no idea what you're talking about. Are you posting
and e-mailing w/o saying so or something?

Well, I figured I'd better utter the appropriate caveat first. E-maul me
the recipe and the fluff text, and I'll put it in. :)
--Camille. I'll never remember it if it's just posted here.

It was, but I saw no relation whatsoever. Plus my server still
hasn't gotten the parts of the thread this was replying to.

No dear--he posted something that he shoulda e-mauled to me. But it's my
fault anyway--I should have stated that I much prefer e-maul to posts,
because I tend to forget things.

Oh dear, I seem to have made a muck of things. I think it's because
I just got my head shot off by a Razorjack in Unreal (nasty little
brother...beat me in all the kill counts and my super-bots whipped
both of us). Can you put in on for me?
No! No! Don't shoot the other arm off! AAAAUUUHHH!

So earlier, you were Veck, but I still saw 'Vladdus' as the sender of the
message. Now you're Vladdus, but I get 'Veck'. Are you having a laugh?

See, this is what happens when you RP multiple opposite characters on one
NG...

This has something to do with my posting to other ngs and
certain problems I'm having with my email and posting
(namely, Hotmail doesn't work :(). Right now I can't be
bothered to change the "Sender" tag for what isn't a
normal posting outlet.

Well, I have it rather easy. Vladdus' been beating up on Spheroids
for awhile, but think of that guy who had someone in the Heavy
Guards and someone in one of the Clans, with the same name.
