Black Dogs
« on: 10 July 2021, 12:18:54 »
Thinking of basing a combined arms unit off the NSDF Black Dogs special forces unit from Battlezone 1.

Debating which faction to associate it with and what type of Mechs would be preferable for the unit. Going off Battlezone's story, it would probably make sense to have it connected to the Western Alliance or early Terran Alliance in some form.

While I know nothing at all about Battlezone, I think the best idea would be to look at two things. The first would be the types of units that they use and their roles, then translating that into Battletech equivalents (striker, artillery, troop transport and so on). The other thing would be to look at what era and faction you want to associate them with. Bearing in mind that at this point we basically have no Western Alliance/Terran Alliance designs at all; closest we can get is early Terran Hegemony.
