Hello, i havent ever played any MechWarrior game before as ive never even heard of it, ive read about this game on some other forum and decided to sign up.

In one of the Questionnaire questions: "What mechwarrior games have you played before", i had to lie because there wasnt the option to select : "None".

Anyway, i am new to this series of games and im hoping to get the chance to playtest it and give some feedback and report bugs.

So, i hope that this game is as awesome as ive read it is.

Ive watched some Mecha anime as well as played some Transformers so i have the basic idea of how these fights might be like, but other than that i have no expirience with Mech suits.

Peace out. ;)

It did say "Pilot" so i thought it was some kind of Mech Suit that is controlled by a human.


After reading and seeing some things about this i got the basic idea, not what i thought it would be, but still awesome.

And no, im not trying to get a beta key by posting, im just trying to say hello.

welcome! You'd better swat up on all the different power ups in the game so you can do some cool combos.

Welcome to the grind, check out the board, there are some pretty cool people hanging around, some have some awesome stories. Check out the Table Top section of the forum that is where you get some great 'horrible' moments as well as awesome moments.
