Catalyst

Sometimes being a catalyst sucks. Other times, I seem to come out of it unscathed, only to have someone else catalyze my life.
Oh well. I guess it's easy to be a catalyst when the opposing forces are lined up, or at least when there is an army hidden in the trees, waiting for someone from the town to slap the commanding officer or start shooting.

Anyway. I have spent some time today modeling the Obsidian Drake Squadron Coin. Squadron coins have a long history, but the current usage, at least when alcohol is involved, is to call out a member of your squadron. he then has 60 seconds to produce his coin, or he owes you a drink. If, say Chelsea challenges the whole squad, and all but Wes produce said coin, Wes owes the squadron a round. If everyone produces the coin, Chelsea owes the squad a round.
I like this particular custom.....
Bop!
It's a silver coin with gold inlay, The front is the squadron symbol and saying, Pluvia Ignis, or Rain Fire, the back is the Quasar insignia.
