Best turn-based tactics game I've ever played! Lots of depth and mechanics to learn, but it's approachable. It really hooked me, and the depth is keeping me interested long-term.

About as close to tabletop battletech as you can get. Definitely recommend getting all the DLC before first playthrough! All of the additional content adds to the game at all stages from start to finish, but not a lot after you complete the campaign... unless you basically start over with a career mode, etc which is totally fun as well.

Fun, good translation of the boardgame, and the computer does all the paperwork.

This is one of the best games out there for Battletech. I backed the KS and bought the DLC for myself, and then I purchased this for a friend so that they could play.
Solid game, well made, great story. Has a few flaws, as all games do, but 95/100

Staff Review
Taking the strategical elements of the popular tabletop version and combining it with the video game form has resulted in an entertaining, engaging gameplay experience. BattleTech is back, and it's looking better than ever.
