Chicagoland Battletech Feburary
« on: 12 January 2020, 17:22:27 »
Hello Everyone,

The February Chicagoland Battletech game will be at Games Plus in Mount Prospect on February 29 (leap day). We will start at 10am ish but We will take a break for lunch around 11:15 so we can get people coming in from the train brought in.

As is customary with my games there will be unique rules as the game will be Valentine/Leap day themed. Stay posted here for what you need to bring etc. I just wanted to get it on everyone's calendars.

I'll probably try to show up myself though I will need to leave around 1:30pm-2pm at the latest so I can get home and sleep for my overnight.

So it will be leap day. Therefore jumping is the theme.

You can bring any unit there is an official record sheet for but units must be jump capable (so yes, you can bring the crazy jumping tank thing if you can find it).

It will be a king of the hill scenario.

You get 1 unit at a time, when it dies you can bring in another (same or different as long as it jumps).

We will BV balance to some mystery number (to you) when you get there so choose wisely... you know I have no issue with worse than standard pilot/gunner (someone has to finish last in the class after all)  >:D

That is all you get to know.

See you on Saturday for the mayhem.  :D

I might or not might be there.
I definitely don't have time to pick a unit.
Patrick, could you pick and bring a mech for me please?
If I'm not there when the store opens, I won't be there; and I apologize for wasting your time by asking for this.
