OK my thoughts on the cartoon.
Bad voice acting
Boring story-lines
The unit in the show (1st Somerset Strikers) was less then interesting.
The main villain and his lackeys where poorly written.
Poor CG for even the time.
It was a repository for bad ideas later added to battletech(EI, Infiltrator, Sloth, Banshee ASF, Tactical operations center)
Overall the show was and is cringe-worth to watch then and now.
Finally IMHO the show should have been set in 3025 or around the 4th successor wars.
Lets face it this is where most players that get into battletech are going to come in.
As has been said elsewhere in this thread, the Grey death legion, Wolf's Dragoons, Kell Hounds would have been much better units to head this cartoon.
