Got it about a year or two before i got married - never had time to play it and it has been in a box all the time for the last seven years.

Got the main box
2050 book
2060 book
20XX book
LOADS of mech sheets
LOADS of those little paper mech cutouts

O_o

Mainly bought it for fun for about 30 euro.

I'm confused... You forgot you bought them until now? Did you recently get a divorce?

I had actually forgotten about it. And my wife is cool with gaming - she just thinks i get a TAD obsessive with new things like a new game.

Not that she is obsessed with her 5 EVE accounts and umpteen spy accounts for EVE.

The 3050 Book is the one you need for MWO and the 3025.

Just yesterday I realised that I used to have the boardgame, and it may still be in a box somewhere... I just hope that it hasn't been thrown out!!!

Havent found it yet

Bought my set a long time ago, can't remember when exactly, but it's been probably around 15 years. BT 4th Ed + CityTech + Master Rules. A few years back finally got a couple of Ral Partha miniatures of my favorites (Crab, Atlas, Summoner). But haven't really played the game much, unfortunately. Still, I definitely want more miniatures. The 25th anniversary box would be nice, even though the plastic ones aren't nearly as nice as the metal ones.

I'm getting together with some old college buddies and going to do a table top game of Battletech in next few days. It was a good deal of fun then, hope the same still applies now.

Wonder what the original box set in good condition would sell for?

Fun fact, the 3050 source book has an in universe publication date of 3052,

in the late 80's i owned and played the tabletop grand stragetic game, where you play one of the great houses. the map was the entire galaxy and you fought for control of systems, with a points system for money to buy dropships, and merc companys. i believe its out of print, but it would be cool to play again.
