Hi folks, who likes Battletech around here ? I m just now coming back to it from a looong hiatus (actually, the last time I played it I had 15 years old... today im 32 xD ).
Anyway, I have the old 3rd edition box set with its default "unseen" minis, plus the first introductory box set (with the ugly Catapult on the cover) with its bunch of ugly plastic minis. Plus, I managed to get some cool metal minis that I still have here. So, right now I have 2 questions.. 1) For someone who already owns the first intro box set, is it worth to get the new one (when it gets re-printed, of course) ? 2) in the old days I only played 1-on-1 with my friends, never tried a campaign. What campaign systems are available? What do you reccomend? I would prefer one that combines simplicity with flavor, if possible. (I see there is this "warchest" system, that looks really simple, and also an old system from the mercenaries handbook that seems REALLY complex). Thanks! |
