Dammit. What about corporal Simmons? He is having an affair with major Thule's wife and the son he has been raising is by private Stroganoff. How will you deal with that ? Hey? Which manual is THAT in?

Which manual is THAT in? On a scale of four to badgers, how close are you to Christening, Bar Mitzvahing, guiding through puberty, painting, assembling and coaching your intrepid group to playing a game?

Waaaa Waaaa waaaa
That is the sound of another new face for the Vash corp.
I could play immediately but I'm lacking my infantry and need to "fix" my drop ship choices.
I'm an evening of scribbling off really

Tbh we've been proxying and converting the bejuses out of stuff (have you SEEN Matt's pirates?). As long as it look the part then no one is fussed - me and Tony are using Scorpions ( as are you) and just picked very basic looking tanks to reflect the lightweight and cheap build.

You may not have guessed, but.....I'M BAAAACK!
Oh, sweet fiddly battletech. It's been too long.
MATT - we need to figure out where our forces are for campaign/timeline purposes. Also, can't remember your faction's name.

If inner sphere, 3039 covers most of the stuff from before and up to the clan invasion. If you're clan, then 3052 is a good place to start. Tbh, most of it can be copied for free from other players. I've bought massive tech sheets online. I can print off whatever you want, so can Matt

Did everyone else know there was a battletech cartoon? I just watched the first episode and it matches the fluff.

Infantry costs give me a headache. I thought the monetary value was fairly straight forward - 2000 per trooper, plus whatever weapons you get them. On that basis, the cost comes in at around 100,000-200,000 cbills for a platoon of 28 men. However - a very comprehensive list HERE puts the cost in the millions - which also ties in with the rough costings given in examples in Interstellar Ops - Force Creation. Anyone got any more info?

Mine were in millions and were tech manual p145 Choose size Choose motive type Choose primary weapon. Choose support weapon That formula is techmsnual p283 1 trooper = 2000 X square root of weapon cost X motive type modifier X anti mech training (if applic)
