This just goes to show the thirst for a real and honest BattleTech title ever since the MechCommander games were released on the PC platform. Hence, to see a turn-based strategy game that is set in the universe of this classic sci-fi franchise, there was no turning back. Without the crowdfunding support, Harebrained Schemes felt confident that they could come up with a “base” simulation experience, as players worked on building up a team of four customizable Mechs, going up against other AI opponents in turn-based skirmishes. As for the game’s rules, it will be based on the rulesets for the tabletop role-playing and wargames. Hopefully it will not end up delayed like Mighty No. 9, another crowdfunded title.
