Battletech is a much better game than Warhammer. FASA made a truly genius game system there. Their lore is better as well. The novels by Michael Stackpole are the best game world novels I’ve read. FASA was first with the 360 approach to a game world with strategy game, tactical game, RPG, novels and computer games. The international gamer community was great as well. I remember the first time I was at the Battletech center at south pier in Chicago. That place was way ahead of it’s time. We were FASAs Scandinavian distributer so we were treated to an exclusive session when we visited. Good times.DBTrek wrote:I could only afford the Dawn of War PC games in my youth, but I loved those Warhammer games. Never had the table space or resources to sink into the miniatures tho. Did a little Battletexh instead ... since one or two mech miniatures is infinitely more affordable than seventy bajillion space elves.
I have loads of stuff in the cellar. Should bring it up and show the kids some day.
The mech miniatures from Ral Parthia wasn’t as well made as the stuff from Citadel though.
