Emplion Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Hi guys, thought I would start a topic to find like minded players. I'm getting back into battletech after being away from the game for almost 30 years. I've already found 2 other like minded players amongst (hopefully) a budding community here in Canberra. To restart my collection I already have 2 of the new starter boxes, 12 tanks (of 5 different designs). By the end of the week I should have another 4 mechs and 2 aerospace fighters. And I'm in the kickstarter in a big way - I have spent about $700 on it. Are you still playing or getting back into the game? Let us all know.

Krefey Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Always loved the BattleTech universe, but never got into the actual tabletop game much. I'm also in Canberra, so might be fun to try and find some time to play occasionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emplion Posted February 23, 2020 Author Share Posted February 23, 2020 Word on the street is that there will be a once a month thing happening at Jolt - the Tuesday night thing has stopped since the organiser retired and moved back to Batemans Bay. The first one still needs a date to be set. There is a Canberra BTech facebook group that gets a bit of traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krefey Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Tuesday won't work for me unfortunately. I have CIT on Monday and Wednesday evenings. Leaving my wife 3 nights in a row to look after our 4yo seems like a sure fire way to get into trouble :P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Do you have a link to the Battletech kickstarter? (Too lazy to search....) Always loved the models and the universe, only ever played the computer games, but absolutely loved Mech Commander, always fancied at the very least painting a lance or two.....

Kn'Thrak Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I went in on the clan kickstarter, and have a GOAC box set almost painted. Eager for some games in Melbourne if anyone's free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I can not leave Campbelltown NSW until things get the all clear. I am also probably only going to Canberra for CnCon when/if it occurs this year. I have a small collection of Battletech minis and some scenery including 3D foam terrain boards that I used a while back to host Battletech at MOAB. I might be able to do something once this CV19 is finished in about 3 or 4 years. My Battletech miniature Collection.docx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kn'Thrak Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I got my 'last chance to confirm your address before we post your stuff' email from kickstarter today. v. excited. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as bad as some of the photos, but not great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loaded Dice Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Hi, I'm a Battletech addict. Thankfully the Kickstarter is over and we now have our goods and new products are slowly making it onto shelves. Bit due who is buying it all though. I was getting a bit too spend happy while the pledge manager was open. Only played the odd random game in recent years, but would like to get into regular gaming again. I want to do some linked campaigns, missions with objectives, etc. I'm from Sydney. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moody Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I'd be happy to play at some point if you can't find anyone else. Only really played twice a very long time ago. Have the mid 90's compendium, technical readout 3026 and a handful of mechs. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
