Battletech (PC Strategy Game)

Are we talking mechs or sushi here?

 

That would be Otoro for sushi, and the real stuff aint cheap.

Toro and Talos are reunification war era Taurian Concordat design mechs.

Mackie i think was a general mech used by most factions.

Would be much more fitting to use much more outdated designs since they have been somewhat cut off from everyone else.

but they are using MWO assets for mechs so thats probably not going to happen.

 

Actually they are using a combination of MWO/Catalyst images (the Locust they are using is the new Catalyst one which looks really good.)

Having said that, the Toro/Mackie most likely wont be in the game, seeing as there is probably only one surviving example of the Toro in the Entire Inner Sphere, that being Black Bessie whose the centerpiece of a Taurian monument in the capital, and the last 100 or so Mackie's followed Kerensky into Exile and subsequently were destroyed in the civil war that followed.

 

I only know of one mackie and it is owned by the smoke jags. For some reason i think the wolf dragoons have one as well.


The reason they chose the area is because it is a blank slate. so anything is possible. I could imagine if some faction had a toro or talos they would have a raging boner to get it back into Taurian hands.

They could even sneak in a little clan wolverine goodness since rumors have a broken part of them trading with the canopians at one point.

 

It's probably in my museum

 

Well.... Im glad he didnt shave his beard for no reason. Lol.

 

I just thought I would mention that people are starting to receive their hats and banners. I am much excite!

 

mine wont ship till 1st or 2nd week august because i have the jacket.

 

I'm with you, Holli. That said, first week of August is a week away Still excite.

 

Anyone else get their heraldry sets yet? Mine came yesterday. I was wondering if they're supposed to look like this or if mine has some defect/mold on it?

Edit: Also, seems like it is only the banner with this issue.

 

Looks like mildew.

 

yeah that looks like mildew.

 

Oh good, it's something that can be cleaned then. Will try this tomorrow, thanks.

 

I would also let Harebrained know. 1) they will care and 2) you might get free stuff.

 

Had the same issue with mine - almost doesn't look right for mildew, there's no smell and the sort of poly-satin fabric wouldn't be very conducive for it, anyway. Really makes me wonder if there was a little bit of bleed from the black ink. Not sure why it would be so localized, though.

 

First very rough and fun looking Gameplay.... wrecking House Marik

 

Wow, they finally got light strikers to work in gameplay the way they're supposed to in lore... not bad.
