CarrionCrow: Yeah, it is. Just have to suffer to make that happen.

There's no way in hell they won't be making sequels with this one already being a success, and the revenue's only going to climb after its official release. This is the exact same process as with Shadowrun. They're starting with the basics, then they'll up the complexity and variety as it goes along.

That's one thing that makes Battletech superior to Shadowrun to me. They can't keep gradually building on like they have with Shadowrun. The game's set in 3025. 25 years after that, a huge faction of invaders known as the Clans show up to take over the galaxy. The Clans have their own Mechs, their own weapons, and it's all vastly superior to what the game world will have in 3025. Players will want that next. I know I do. And so, the company will keep having to build on what they have more heavily than they have with the Shadowrun series, because the lore, the canon, the 30 plus years of tabletop games and books have to be adhered to. If they try to stray from that, they'll make every single long-time player angry as all hell.

akhliber: I'm willing to bet if you sold the shirt, you could get you a coffee. ;)
Good morning!

AgentBirdnest: n__o I'd rather sell it for more peanut butter than coffee :-p
Good morning :-)

akhliber: I've never played a Battletech game and know nothing of the universe. But knowing who is making it has me tempted to back it, as much as I've loved the Shadowrun games.

ElTerprise: Me neither but i read a bit about the setting - which slightly reminds me of Dune (Great Houses and sci-fi feudal society etc.) and knowing who is the developer made me back it. Really looking forward to that one. Second Kickstarter for me after Bard's Tale IV :)

akhliber: Perfectly understandable. I'd just be afraid I'd fall asleep before getting to eat it all. Seemed like a good compromise. ;)

Empress_Owl: Lol :D

It's been ages since I last saw you in there...

AgentBirdnest: How about this new compromise... Apparently this was just made available in the last few days :-|

pimpmonkey2382.313: Doing pretty well other than being sick, had to take some time off from the place but feels good to be back. :) *hugs and pets owl*

l0rdtr3k: The time for hugs is now!

akhliber: Ooh.
-Harebrained Schemes
-Turn-based
-Even a little like Dune

Okay, yeah, I think I'll probably give in and back this one today. :)

j0ekerr: Wasn't there a lot of lost technology in the battletech universe? With Comstar having a monopoly on communications due to most everyone not having the technology for supraluminal communication, which they keep with an almost religious-zeal that bears more than a passing resemblance to adeptus mechanicus?

l0rdtr3k: Outside of having a drunkard of a brother who can't stop thinking about getting drunk and threatens physical harm(and even death) on anyone who wants to help him recover,I'm totaly fine.

akhliber: Enjoy your lunch! :)
