I love this! Crescent Hawks Inception was my introduction to the Battletech universe, and I'm thrilled to see new IP and new thinking emerging from the original Battletech computer game. Stepping away from the shackles of 40 years of weird game design choices is a great move. I can't wait to see where this goes. I just wish there was a macOS port. :)

Oh boy, I can't wait to play...
*checks notes*
...Mercs Mercs!

[clauvyuga]

Glad to see this growing into its own thing! Can't wait for the demo.

[xyonblade]

very cool! congrats on your hard work and success! I love seeing people making things come together.

Ooh, neat!
As much as I love BattleTech (and I do love BattleTech) and enjoyed BattleMercs as an experience, I'm interested to see where this goes. Especially as the art assets, story, lore, and mechanics develop into their own thing.
I think this one I'm getting in ground floor. $15 isn't that much money.

I loved playing through the different versions of this game, can't wait for the demo!

[konradstrachan]

This looks so much fun! Mechwarrior + C&C combined :-D looking forward to the livestream and getting my hands on a demo. Love the art style too

[eddienope]

I'm excited for this! Love the old battletech games! I'm glad you stuck with the retro graphics.

[chefdeathvods]

Been following this on your discord. Very excited to see where it goes, a new universe and lore means new ways to play!

[Technochaos]

I love Battletech as much as the next guy, but it's really exciting to see this project develop into it's own thing. Can't wait to see the new factions and mechs!

[Sportsvee]

Best way to describe it, ITs AWESOME!!!!

[harvestblades]

Tex sent me! This looks great as I'm a father & can barely justify the time to play MW5 or BT let alone spend the money to upgrade my PC to play HBS BT which I have really wanted to play.
Im hoping this will be a bit more at my tech level, plus it's a nice middlefinger at Microsoft. I won't be able to make the livestream so I hope you post the video afterwards & Im looking forward to trying the demo.

[JimBobJoeBb]

This game deserves all the attention and love!

[alyssinwilliams]

Just subscribed to the Patreon and looking forward to seeing how this progresses!

[paypercutts]

Yes! Looking forward to giving it a good go and making the connections with slight changes in names and design to BTech

[ScottRKrol]

Wow, what awesome news! I first found out about the old project a couple of months ago from Splattercat so it's great to see this is still alive and kicking. Looking forward to the demo and seeing the ultimate form!

[CenturionMax]

Absolutely nuts for this. Coo coo for coco puffs. I'll be there wednesday.

[peterfromaustria]

For one I'm sad you had to ditch the Battletech Setting (I 100'% understand why - those copyright legal S*** is just nasty) - on the other side I'm very curious about the new setting/lore and everything else ... definitely will watch the stream and will give support, because I already liked the BattleMercs game!

[MOrab]

I hope we don't need high power computer to play. Love it.

[comchia]

This looks super cool! I'm definitely interested in getting a copy, and early demos.

Funny enough, Dune II somehow popped up as a comparison in the description. Was that an influence, by chance? The gameplay certainly seems to remind me of that game!
