I played way to many hours on MPBT:EGA where was known as Lt.Gen Reaper*GK*. Ghostrider was the house leader back then and we used to try and find all the little tricks, like putting tape on your monitor to mark where you could actually hit with an alpha strike with a marauder and if you got yours off first, you would crit the other marauders AC10 and take it out. We also loved that you could lose a leg on the Rifleman and still be able to use the AC's and LL's in the arms by using the look down view.
I'm can hardly wait for access to this game...

Been playing Battletech since the 80's something, mustve been 86 or so that I got my hands on the first tabletop box during a big roleplaying/tabletop convention in sweden, played the first 2 computer games as well as all Mechwarrior-Mech commander games. I love all of them, bigass metal things controlled by humans is a thing I enjoy too much

It took me at least a dozen joysticks before I learned to control my frustration when a certain pilot who will remain nameless would rock my fully armored Daishi into a pile of scrap without me ever getting off a shot. He was a master of chain firing LRM20's from the cockpit of a well designed Vulture. He would position himself behind cover so the only thing exposed to me was his cockpit but the missile impacts kept me from getting the reticle on such a small target(he was good). This wouldn't have bothered me so much if it weren't happening in my own FFP Vengeance servers. On any map where I couldn't immediately get to cover this little pee ant would own my fat but and as a result I guess I was a little rough on my joysticks .
Wonder if any of you can guess who this Vulture pilot was because I'm sure I'm not the only pilot to fall prey to him, though I do think I was his favorite target
any ways it has always been fun and I can't wait to play Mechwarrior- Online
sorry for rambling, it's the old age

Now, I have 2 kids that both play mech in some form or another, they are only 4 and 6. I can only hope they get as much enjoyment out of this franchise as I have.

Geezers eh? step on out in the street punk!
I got your back Harusee, hows about we start an old Geezers clan, we can help to Educate the young whipper snappers on how to pilot a mech without training wheels. . We would have to require all members show there AARP cards to join...lol
