MechWarrior Tactics

Post by War_Ghoul »

Just read this article about an upcoming free to play MW game. Looks almost like a digital version of Dark Age.

It was good, interesting. Top Down, Isometric game play. Hexagonal board. Mechs are made from "Cards" that you can buy or win. "Turn" based where you plan your attacks first, then plan your moves. After the plans are made and initiated, both sides take action at the same time. Rinse and repeat until all opponent mechs are destroyed or incapacitated.

I'm sure it's a standard NDA for Beta so, not entirely sure what else could be discussed.

Generally, it was not what I was expecting... at all... It's web-based and plays like a board game... kinda...
