BattleTech Game Errata / Re: Master Unit List (MUL) Feedback Thread IV - READ THE FIRST POST
« Last post by danilapal on Today at 12:27:46 »Unit: Annihilator C "Gausszilla"
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/44/annihilator-c-gausszilla
Issue : Wrong (?) Faction Availability (probably "unique")
Historical: Operation Klondike , p173
Notable MechWarriors
Star Colonel Bryan Kabrinski: Sharing the same name as
his biological grandfather, Star Colonel Kabrinski was a legend in
his time—outspoken and innovative, he led his Clan to victory
after victory during the Golden Century, winning for the Ghost Bears several OmniMech designs as well as more than a score of
genetic legacies. Even more legendary, however, was the ’Mech
he supposedly commanded in his most important trials—known
as “Gausszilla,” it was an Annihilator that somehow mounted an
astounding five Gauss rifles. The ’Mech itself was lost to history, but
his exploits at its controls continue to fuel tall tales throughout the
Clan homeworlds and the Ghost Bear Dominion.

Strategic Combat / Re: SBF Aerospace combat phase puzzlement
« Last post by Zematus737 on Today at 11:14:30 »The wording alternate of defense squadron in place of the traditional use of "target" and "attacker" seems like a trifle, or making a mountain out of a mole hill.
You can wait until the proposed ideas of higher scales (as all these schemes are really a smorgasbord of ideas one can freely pick and choose from) or you can figure how they can all play well together. I shared some of my ideas on how to do that in the post on Player Aids. You're most welcome to pick up the ideas there or use some of them to form your own system.
It's clear that Battletech is the Eve Online of table top board games. There are so many players that love to TALK about the game, but most of the hardly understanding or even playing it. Speaking for myself, I see enough information in these guides to formulate some coherent framework that can be fruitful in future battalion or regiment sized confrontations.

Strategic Combat / Re: Spheroid dropships landing damage in SBF
« Last post by Zematus737 on Today at 11:05:01 »A spheroid can drop or land almost anywhere, but if that terrain is not of the recommended type it will lead to damage. It doesn't restrict it from landing, you just prepare the ship to take a hit for an unconventional landing.
