Assuming that anyone is still into Battletech here, I've recently downloaded the latest stable version of Megamek (the computerized version of the table-top game) and I've been re-familiarizing myself with the game and how to play it. I've got an irresistible urge to play with no one to play against, sadly. Anyone here that would be up for a game or two?
The latest stable version is available for download here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/megamek ... =directory
If you need to install Java, you can download that here:
http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp
And, in case you're interested, there are some custom camo patterns** to be downloaded here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/megamek ... 0Patterns/
**Once you've downloaded and unzipped the ALL-camos file, go into each sub-folder and copy and paste the image files into the Megamek camo folder (click on the data folder, then the images folder to find it).

Re: Battletech Fans! Megamek Anyone?
I'd be up for a few rounds sometimes. Megamek is really the only way to play BTech. Book keeping in pen and paper is a nightmare.
Re: Battletech Fans! Megamek Anyone?
I agree. The only thing I miss is the dice rolls and people arguing about it:D

Hmmm, I dabbled in the tabletop and enjoyed, really only dropping ti because of the player base. This sounds like a good way to get back in.

Oh! This thread...
I'd given up that anyone had seen it. XD Anyway, I'm still game. I have free days on Thursdays and Fridays and sometimes I have time for a quick game during the evenings, around 1800 CST or so.
I'm a fairly big fan of larger games, though, which tends to be 20k or larger. Please! Feel free to PM me if you're interested.
