I think I just found the only kickstarter I'll ever contribute to )did so for one other game, but it didn't fly so they gave the money back). Any other BT/MW nerds have a nerdgasm about this?

Got slapped by wife because I should not act like a 5 -year old boy screaming around and running in circles Oops .

MW meets turnbased strategy. Shocked. Sounds very promising.

@Jenn: Just one question out of curiosity regarding your name. Is it an allusion to genocide or genaside or neither nor Question

--
gen·o·cide
ˈjenəˌsīd/
noun
noun: genocide; plural noun: genocides

the deliberate killing of a large group of people, especially those of a particular ethnic group or nation.

In my case, the particular ethnic group or nation is the Angel Cartel (this time around) Big smile. But if that BT game sees the light of day, that will change to House Kurita . Hate those katana waving idjots!! lol.

Thanks for the clarification Jenn.

Back to topic:

Wouldn't EVE and MW fit perfectly together? Playing on ground with different kinds of robots which you can fit. Building up corps or clans and fighting for resources.


Oh wait, that's Perpetuum, forget about that one.

If only I could post an image of Philip J. Fry holding a bunch of dollars screaming "shut up and take my money", I would.

Was hoping for a proper MW game (not the crap that MWO became). Dissappointed once more....

Seems like the last proper Mech game is and will remain MW4M :/

If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all...

Grew up playing battletech games, I'll be sure to do justice to House Steiner and the Lyran Commonwealth.

And by justice I mean filling my heat syncs with champagne and dropping a company of assault mechs heavy enough to shift a planet out of alignment, as is the Steiner way.

Aint no party like a Lyran scout part, cuz a Lyran scout party don't scout. Blink

Excelling in all things terrible.
