Look, dude, when you are a real mechwarrior you don't need to get all dressed up in cooling suits and cool helmets to work on your mech. You just strip down to your 1980s panties and crop top vest and start wrenchin' it.

I'm guessing the people at the Republic Institute for Strategic Combat would know what it stands for, but they're not talking.

On a different note, How's people liking the HTP: REVIVAL Trails.  I've found Hellion Fury's campaign pretty good challenge, i love the Unit Sheet in back of the book. Something I always wanted to be using, instead of using a spread sheet.

It's good. I haven't played the tracks yet, but the fiction and historical information about the bidding and such is great.

I'm with Mbear on this. Haven't actually played any tracks yet(and it'll likely be a very long time before I do), but I love the insight we get into  the pre-REVIVAL Clans, especially those that no longer exist.

Also, the whole  thing is justified by the 90th Striker Irregulars, especially the first sentence of their notes. :D

I'm a big fan of HTP:Revival... can't imagine why

The unit sections in the back are cool.  I was kind of sad because the Adder unit is my favorite (5th Assault) and there's not really new info.  Same old, big mobile mechs with lots of guns, they fight smart, blah blah. (Sometimes even the staunchest Adder fan finds our clan boring). Your welcome CHH, that was a heck of a parting gift for your trip to the Inner Sphere.

Haven't read in depth on many other units yet but some of them are cool so far.

The opening fiction is awesome.  We are the Star Adders and we love all out warrior clan brothers, let's unite and go invade and kic... oh forget it you little brats.  <begin evil plans>

I will admit that when reading it through, I thought that the tournament system needs a play through with my group.
Imagine having the winners as different Clans at the end of it all.  >:D

I was happy to see RATs personally. I'll be using them for an Alpha Strike campaign in the near future.
