    Question Re: Battletech nerds rejoice? Mechwarrior 5 being worked on?

    The Warhammers can be seen in some ports of Japanese Mecha to American... sometimes with rather interesting joining of different series into the same universe/arc.

    From memory they are in the same series as the LAMs. And are kind of a ship defense unit that stays put (doesn't fly off) and do a fair amount of damage just walking on the surface.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    Huzzah! MekTek finally gets the legal go-ahead from Microsoft for the free MechWarrior 4 release. Took M$ long enough, rumor has it they almost ruined MekTek by just sitting on this.

    Not sure. I think all the work is done, they were just trying to clear legal hurdles. I would imagine it would be out in a couple of months. I'll definitely post when it is released.

    Or, at least I think so. MekTek's servers are getting hammered, so you might want to wait a few days.
