This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The woke infiltration of Battletech.

Quote from: BoxCrayonTales on October 24, 2024, 01:47:48 PMSo when are we gonna get a new mech game that isn't Battletech? I have some ideas for original mech games and settings. I think it would make the most sense to start with generic rules that can support multiple settings, then make a plethora of settings rather than limiting yourself to just one. E.g. the war of earthly aggression, the bug war, mech sports, mechs vs the cthulhu mythos...
There's an alt-universe BattleTech product (BattleTech Gothic boxed set) that's being produced with a new setting and it will have kaiju-like monsters to fight with your mechs.
I'm not giving money or exposure to bigots

They're taking a step towards giving you what you asked for but that's not enough for you. Suit yourself. I'll take a look at it and judge it on its own merit (or lack of such).
