listening to a #battletech podcast and remembering how much I sometimes miss the people I used to play with.
@tuturto recurring theme in our #battletech games was that hiring lance from players to protect some area or installation was risky business. Usually they ended up causing damage to the installation and sometimes even more than those trying to attack there.
@tuturto biggest game in terms of units was battalion vs battalion (I think Word of Blake and Davion), but that wasn't with Total Warfare rules, but Quickstrike, where lance is single unit.
@tuturto ok kids, nostalgy trip over. This old fart has things to do.
@tuturto armoured train escape is still my favourite scenario of all time. Protecting an industrial zone was fun too, with players accidentally causing havoc and starting fires on the area.
