I thought this developer simplified their Shadowrun mechanics too much.  But those RPGs still ended up being enjoyable. 

Fortunately this Battletech game is closer to the tabletop mechanics.  O0

Will try not to get my hopes up too much, but will still keep my eyes on this one.  Have been a Battletech fan since I was introduced to the game at 16.

If this was WEGO like combat mission I would be very interested.

The original tabletop game isn't WEGO.
Whether the rules are simplified or not, it looks like it got the general feel of the tabletop game based on the vids.

Jomni like I said. If it was WEGO it would be interesting to me. Because it would be more real.
If it is simply a copy of an ancient tabletop rule set that in it's day had to take into account the fact that people were moving figures around i.e. it needed to be turn based (UGOIGO) then I am not.

We've been asking for a fancy 3D turn-based digital version of Battletech for ages.  I, for one, am glad someone finally got around to producing one.  :clap:

I think it looks ace and that is all i have to say about that.
