Even though I posted a couple of times this month, let me do a personal summary.
I started playing AtB 2-3 years ago, and it was a wonderful experience. Then HBS got released and short of drifted away. But now, because of the kickstarter, I returned to MekHQ and it's wonderful learning AtB all over again. No really, I love setting up the initial campaigns! But there are some lingering thoughts I need to write down.
1. This thread seems to have died down. I guess it's a combination of HBS BattleTech and the fact that most talking is being done in the slack channel? It's a petty, because slack is limited as far as 'backlog' reading is concerned, unless you are a paying customer of slack
2. I have been thinking about the shares system (which I love) and the death of a mechwarrior. Would it make sense if instead of 'deducting' his share, a relative that inherited the mech could join the Unit (and random roll him, 1d6, rolling 1=no mech driving heirs)? Would this mess the economy of side of AtB?
