Just seen this: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/webeharebrained/battletech. HBS delivered with the Shadowrun games. I expect this'll be good too.
Battletech Kickstarter.
- Thread starter Lobstris
- Start date
Thanks Lobstris - good find!
I used to play the boardgame back in the dim and distant past & love the Mechwarrior series.
Looks like this has a good team behind it, may have to dust off the old credit card
Cheers for the rep, but I just saw it on Blue's News. Given that HBS seem to be a trustworthy company, with several successful kickstarters, and a lot of old FASA employees (Jordan Weisman), I'd imagine this on will probably meet most of the stretch goals too. Already funded, and just below the first stretch goal after one day. *Edit - It was actually funded after 53 minutes according to the first news update - lol!

Just backed at $50 to get in the beta test - Who needs food anyway (I could do with losing a couple of pounds)
Looks like delivery is expected around May 2017 and I reckon I might be able to pry myself away from Elite by then (unless they do something dastardly by introducing walking on atmospheric planets or the like).

Backed, it sounds very cool. Thanks OP.
Last time I looked yesterday it was half that amount. They're really doing well, wish them the best for it, not that they'll need it.
Going to be a good game by the looks of things.
