What exactly is the status of the Battletech line nowadays? In days of yore we had FASA who produced Battletech - big clunky robots with frickin' lasers going at each other and Mechwarrior which was the RPG for the game world. Then however they decided to mostly shut down shop and this is where my knowledge is hazy at best.

As I understand it FASA have licensed Fanpro Germany, who have in turn licensed Fanpro LLC in the US to produce the English language Classic Battletech books. These are set following exactly after the old FASA books right? So where does Dark Ages fit in to this, and are there any other currently produced versions floating about out there? Also whatever happened to the MechWarrior RPG part of it, did anyone carry that on or is it dead? Thanks. :)
