    If any of you have a hunger for some Battletech action, try out MegaMek. It's the board game, only you're able to play online with people. Folks from Clan Smoke Jaguar are apparently itching for new competition, and would like to play some matches with us. :D

    Download link - we are currently using version 35.29!

    Snazzy, looks like I'm set up to play with some SJs tonight at 8:30 eastern! Join me if you'd like!

    Waiting to find out if they have Vent/TS/Mumble/whatever.

    They may have a MegaMek campaign conflict at that time, so it might get reworked, I'll keep this thread updated. Let me know if you're interested in playing with us though, the more the merrier and it would get us working as a unit earlier. :)

    Yeah, but... you can play stuff at 4am? :D

    Any chance of that changing, getting shifted shifts?

    I've updated the first post with a link to download version 35.19 of MegaMek. It is the one the Jags are using. :)

    Only got one Solaris match in, but had a good time getting to know some of the Jaguars. They are our kind of people. ;)

    Anyone want to set up some matches, either internally or with the Jags, for this weekend? Saturday or Sunday afternoon/night?

    Internally I might add. It has been almost 15 years since I have played Battletech and I need to ease into it

    lol, you and me both. I'm getting raped by the BOTS, and they are apparently as smart as a rock. The Jags are freaking good.

    Crud, It sucks being deployed. I'm going to try and download it and learn off of the bots. I won't be able to play with you guys until I get back tho.

    A couple months. Guess I should mention it now, before it might become a problem in matches. A few times a year I'll be deployed or go TDY to random places that have no or bad internet. I'll make sure you get a heads up, so that way I don't just suddenly drop off the face of the earth. Hopefully it won't cause any troubles to the unit I'm in in the future. But atleast it'll give me time to learn how to play a game like MegaMek.
