[LFP] BattleTech & MechWarrior Sundays 4:30-10:00pm EST weekly

Greetings MechWarriors! I am starting a new game that is BattleTech and MechWarrior both, set in 3025. I have converted MechWarrior to FATE Core because to me the MechWarrior game systems are overly complex compared to the simplicity of BattleTech and FATE allows for more cinematic action, it's also much faster to get stuff done. I have converted traits to stunts, added qualities to purchase for mech types, and put in a list of ready made stunts though by no means are those stunts the limit. The Campaign itself will be decided in FATE fashion except for the caveat of the year. Whether or not the players are pirates, mercenaries, house regulars, a garrison force on a throne world, what House or Periphery they are a part of, that's all up to the group consensus. Alright I am revamping this posting. The date is set for Sundays at 4:30 PM EST until 10:00 PM EST every week. The listing is&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/44376/battletec" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/44376/battletec</a>... where I have posted up a FAQ and Application. I am not in a rush to start so take some time to read through the posting and the FAQ and fill out the App. Looking forwards to seeing people who can make the new date/time scheduled.

Please add me to Skype. Gideon.frost. My background is a knight with a white background.&nbsp; I've played all of the games from MW2 through even MechAssault and MWO. I've played Megamek Tabletop which was pretty awesome. &nbsp;I've own and have read all of the in print Battletech and Mechwarrior books. I own alot of the technical readouts as well. I've only ever seen Battletech played in person once sadly.&nbsp; I would love to play Wednesday after work like 6:00 &nbsp;Central or Sunday evening. I'm also sure that if the system works well there is probably a huge BTech crowd who would love to give this a shot if one knows where to look for them at.&nbsp;

I don't use Skype, I plan to use the roll20 app for communications and gameplay. If still interested (I know some people demand Skype, but I don't like trying to coordinate separate communications), then please make a post on the LFG listing. At the moment the time is set for 8 EST, which would be 7 Central on Wednesday and if that works for people, that's what we'll go with. Thank you for your interest.

That's perfect for me time wise. I don't demand Skype I actually prefer Discord. Roll 20 is fine as well. I'm just used to everyone having Skype. It's always nice to be able to communicate while outside or roll 20 but not necessarily needed.&nbsp;

I'd be interested as well, though I am unfamiliar with the FATE system.&nbsp;

Alright RL has evened out, new game waiting for players. Looking forwards to meeting people. Edited the initial post so please re-read to see what is current information.&nbsp; Wish I could edit the title.

Hex said: Wish I could edit the title. Wish granted! ^_^&nbsp; Good luck and happy gaming!

Thanks!

UPDATE: Still need 2 more players for this campaign, can take up to 4 more players total. We'll be using custom hex maps inside roll20 for the BattleTech part (I have Icons for every mech available in the time period for use) and I have fully converted A Time of War/MechWarrior to Fate.&nbsp;Everyone starts with 20 skill points using a standard ladder and I have created extra's for purchase as well as a list of already pre-approved stunts. So far players are leaning towards a Mercenary group or a House Steiner Military unit but that is still up for discussion and nothing is set in stone until world and character creation on our first day. I would really like to see 3 more dedicated players commit to the game, then we'd have a reinforced lance and if someone has to miss a game, still have a lance available for those in 'Mech situations.
