I play BattleTech, and I am one of those collectors who loves his old FASA stuff. And one of my friends who has been jonesing hard to get a regular BattleTech game going at his house wanted to game this weekend. So some dice got thrown, and we did some serious brainstorming about the future. So I got home, pulled out my old 3025 Mercenaries Handbook, and went to work building an old school merc unit for long term play. A company of mechs including a Locust, a couple Phoenix Hawks, a Warhammer, a Marauder, a Crusader, and several others. Add in six mixed infantry platoons, and a reinforced light armor company and I have everything from infantry transports to choppers to a nice light cavalry lance of Drillsons and Pegasuss. All flying in on an Invader, a Union escorted by a pair of Corsairs, and two Furies to hold all the support fun. And yes, if you aren’t into BattleTech, you now know how we geek feels when people talk about their fantasy football teams. Hehehe. So anyways, I think I’ve got a plan for future games, and that is awful nice. Now to throw it past the Big Guy and see what he thinks. 🙂
