Yes, I'm afraid an awful lot of work went into creating something for the game (Classic Battletech) that almost no one has the slightest bit of interest in. Maybe I should ask my buddies with the MechWarrior click-tech collections to show me how they work out there.
Well this has given me some ideas for building the forestry mech I have on my workbench. Obviously, I must be one of the few that buy the oddball civilian mechs, mostly because I'm intrigued by the idea of "technicals" i.e: adhoc conversion of cars to fighting vehicles.
I have the secret (well, it WAS a secret) ambition of running a Battletech scenario set in an open pit mine. One of the hazards would be 150 ton haul trucks carrying 250 tons of ore and cruising around at 30 mph; just the thing to flatten unwary assault mechs!
Wow, that is kinda cool.
ReplyDeleteI still don't like Forestry 'Mechs any more though...
