I enjoy the occasional well thought out written review but if this means more reviews this is a great approach and feels very giantbomb esque. It's too hard to track down game discussions on a given game way after the fact and like many said I love the goty discussions so this feels like more of that.
Battletech the tabletop is the original thing that spawned all the Mechwarrior, mech assault, TV show and what not stuff and was developed in parallel with the novel line.
I've been playing the tabletop since the early 90s and this is finally a turn based video game version that - even though they changed a ton of rules - keeps the spirit and feeling of the boardgame and at the same time is faster to play.
If anyone wants to dive into the lore I would recommend the warrior trilogy novels by Michael Stackpole.
