That is very exciting. I enjoy books like this and would love to see a book on the history of BattleTech as well.
Is there any idea of a publication date?

The 25th Anniversary book wasn't enough? ;)

Haha, it's never enough!
But I wanted to see more of a breakdown of what influenced BattleTech. I just read LeGuin's The Dispossesed, which I wouldn't be surprised influenced BattleTech. I know a lot of the original authors esteemed Moebius so I'd like to read about that. Heck, one of the original guys that I met had a Tarkus tank that he sculpted in a display case so I want to read about what music they listened to. The nitty-gritty, you know?

My first thought when I read the thread title was "Awesome!". O0 (I don't talk out loud much, unless I'm talking directly to the cat, as she looks at me funny otherwise. :D )
I've got an old Ral Partha postcard, and I showed it to Mike Noe at GC '12 and he Loved it! ;D He said "I remember those!", but he didn't say how many they produced. I pointed out to him someone listed the Crusader on the front of the card as a Phoenix Hawk! ;D I've never seen any others anywhere, or even heard of any others. I wonder if Mr. Fathbruckner has any, or if he knows of any others. ???
Is it too early to Pre-Order a copy? ??? ;D
I also wonder, will he be able to have pictures of the Unseen in his book? ???
It will also include a collector’s guide, with photos and release dates for the entire product line, including variants and resculpts.

I would send Jacob any question you have. The book is still in the development stages, though he has a lot of it completed so far.

This could be very interesting. O0

I would certainly love to read this book and would love to see other, similar books on 80s gaming companies.
-
Very cool! I would buy it. I have the Grenadier book that someone made on CD, and I continue to wait for David Campbell's book on Heritage Dungeon Dwellers.
-
Have any progress announcements been made on this book?

I will ask. The guy who is creating it has been busy with the Chaos Wars that he helped spearhead.
