So I've recently fallen back in love with the Battletech Franchise after rediscovering it again, and wanted to see if anyone was interested in a game set in the Battletech universe. For those of you unfamiliar with the setting but interested in checking it out, it's essentially the most popular and well-made western addition to the mecha genre, and the grittiest and most realistic addition of them all. Some helpful videos are this one for the lore (which perfectly cuts at exactly the point in the timeline I want to begin the game), and this one (warninng: lots swearing, not safe for kids/work) for a little background of the games/system itself. The game will be a hybrid of roll20 and another system called MegaMek, with on-foot engagements and roleplay done over roll20, and mech combat done over MegaMek. Newbies are welcome, no purchasing of rulebooks and whatnot necessary.
