last one I played mech3 , im an old mech2 gbl expansion guy.
I came to have a look at mwo after difficulty finding ways to get mech2 running in windows7 ×64, so far as I can tell even in dosbox the old disket versions won't run on my hardware and the windows patch for the pentium edition is useless also.
im cool with the fact that this is not the same game, its online skirmish not a full blown sim. id still like to get mech2 with gbl but may have to scab up some retro hardware to do it ( a 486dx would suffice ) as a bonus I could run my comanche diskettes and maximum overkill expansions
I have those tucked away for a rainy day also lol.

I played it in a Windows 98 environment originally, so you could try it with late 90s or early 2000s hardware too.
