It does sound interesting though - unique campaigns based on the class of mech you pilot, instead of relegating light and medium mechs to starter kits until you can afford a Battlemaster. Also: <i>Battlemasters!</i> The original awesome looking-mechs from the halcyon days finally get a digitally interactive venue that doesn't require them to look like lumps of shit. <img src=http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/8581/mw1shd.gif/img> That teal thing is supposed to be a Shadow Hawk: <img src="http://www.battletech-movie.com/images/forum_pics/shd-2d_shadowhawk/shadowhawk_01.jpg"/img> I also like the little touches, like seeing your dude flipping switches and turning knobs in the cockpit. I hope they include animations of him angrily pounding the console when one of your lancemates FABIOes the mission.[/quote]
