I think I first played battle tech when I was 12. I've loved it my whole life. This game got like everything right. Even the art style reminded me of the Technical Readout books.
Again: Buy this game, look for „BTA“ and a guy namend bloodydoves, and play that mod for free. In a giant and still expanding expanded battletech universe. Much (!) better than the original game.
I love that damned ship so so much.
HBS really got it right, by having our own Home ship to fix up.
There's a bunch of beautiful renders on Victoria Passariellos Artstation, plus a lot of the vehicles, dropships and Jumpships
