The themes of BATTLETECH are politics, treachery and loyalty, power, lost technology, scrounging for survival and the romance of feudal knights and royalty. Military power is now in the form of the most advanced weapons platforms of two hundred years ago - The Battlemech - a walking, running, and sometimes jumping tank filled with high energy weapons and advanced systems - many of which are now failing with spare parts in constant short supply. War has been raging for hundreds of years and people's ability to manufacture even basic electronics has declined as factories are systematically blown up, scientists and engineers killed or kidnapped and leaders assassinated. Mankind has colonised thousands of planets around Earth, but previously centralised political control from Earth (initially the Terran Hegemony, then The Star League) has failed and groups of planets are now ruled by great and minor Houses, each dominated by a few powerful families and lineages, all vying for power and resources. This guide assumes that you have completed the tutorial and have a basic grasp of the UI, conducting battles, and weapons available, and are starting to explore some of the depth of the skill system, 'Mech building, lance composition and tactical nuances that exist within the game - either to find ways to improve your game - or to simply explore different tricks and strategies for fun and (virtual) profit (in C-Bills)! It is a thoughtful tactical turn-based mission-based game that allows quick access, but takes time to master and offers scope for experimentation on different levels. Battletech has a deep and long history and has a large base of fans, myself included, that love the lore and are desperate to like everything ever made about the Battletech Universe.īATTLETECH is a recent (2018) adaption of the game. The franchise started as a tabletop wargame in the 1980s and has since spawned numerous books, games, role-playing systems and other things. The AI moved very bad, I had only one counter attack on one of my mechs and only one building lost.Welcome to Battletech - a game about giant robots at war in the 31st century. My mech loadout was 180t in total, but I had all 8+ pilots and some nice upgrades installed. The battle against 2/3rds of them (8 mechs) was like a walk in the sunshine. Some personal impression: the Black Widow company is the most infamous mech unit in the Inner Sphere. OpFor: a lance of the black widow company (3 medium, 1 heavy mech, 205t total)Ī 2nd lance shows up after 3rd round (or 50% losses on enemy side?), containing 4 mediums with 180t total weightĪfter completing this flashpoint, you get a crate of random rare items, fix is the 95t Bull Shark.
It is unknown whether this is a 3rd lance drop, or referencing the 2nd mission. If you don't secure the base fast enough, or when you get the 2nd lance to 25% left, Baumann does mention sending a kill team with an assault mech. OpFor: a lance (standard difficulty, day 400) of 4 medium mechs, some with 25% armor off)Īfter capturing base, a 2nd lance shows up (northeast of the base), containing a mech of each weight class (half of them, luckily the heavy ones with 25% armor off, depending on difficulty). (you may unlock this flashpoint after completing hunting season)
