    Battletech An SI in the Concordat - GhostRider's Revenants (Battletech CYOA)Rev.2

    I assume that the rest of the Aurigan Province is following Coromodir's example, if a few years behind. If with less active support for those policies. With most systems having either a repair yard or plans for one, along with small hospital stations near the jump points. Granted, their...

    Battletech An SI in the Concordat - GhostRider's Revenants (Battletech CYOA)Rev.2

    That I can understand, I was expecting most of the House Lords to try and buy one for their heirs, but not for anyone else. It is likely way to expensive for even limited by the House armies use (flagship dropship for special units). Even for the The Revenants its more of a status thing ("see...

    I have the feeling that the Block 2 is going to stay in small scale production due to orders by various groups. Chandrasekhar is likely to get one as a gift from the MC as a combination of "thank you good business partner" and advertising as he re-gifts it to a family member who will get more...

    Reposting from BattleTech since you posted the above there as well. With others refuting your comment. Thing is that with BT level of tech, its easy to mine in space. Sure you'll have to provide habitation, but you would have to do that on a planet. We just call those buildings (and all...

    It looks to be an issue of out of pocket payments. Likely something like going to a mechanic that will try to get you to fix things that aren't broken, so they will earn more. Since they're pay is so low, they try to get the patient to take additional treatments to increase the amount they...

    Yeah... C* getting back their HPGs from the Tarians? "Well, we never wanted to be part of the SL and since you are the 'remainder' of the SL. How about, no? Yes, no, sounds about right. It has been effectively dead for around 200 years." Along with, "Hey Ambassidor, you are sloppy, but...

    Battletech interstellar shipping isn't that expensive, during the SL they were shipping bulk ore from the periphery. The thing that gets you currently in BT is the scarcity of shipping capacity. Which is heavily mitigated by the fact that VMI has a shipyard and repair facility in system, which...

    Hmm.. we haven't heard much about the civilian side of things. Let me play around with somethings behind the scenes. Lorie Fournier looked at the report, 20 years ago those numbers would have been insane. Every month at least one regiment's worth of each type of civilian mechs were leaving...

    He is busy trying to setup an alternate Battletech franchise publication , from 1970, with them advancing BT's timeline in sync with RL. So each year they would advance the franchise one year with a new book. One of the suggestions that he is going to go with is to add a book for Melissa to...

    I wonder if you will take some notes from what Drakensis is doing and have Melissa visit the Taurians. As it is from Hansen's view a low risk area and a chance to see how she handles diplomacy. With the MC perhaps giving her a small refit kit for her mother and aunt to bring their mechs more...

    I'm assuming Edward was trembling in excitement. While they are 'buying' the first two years of production, I doubt that all those mechs are actually going to be purchased by them. At least if they are half-way smart about it, the political power they can gain by simply 'gifting' those...
