Reply To: BattleTech: Mercenaries – CGL does a shipping booboo? Internet rages!

It seems that they have the rights, but zero sign off an the board game. So backers are expected to pay £40 for this sight unseen, and trust CGL to produce something good.

Looking at how they half-arsed the Leviathans minis and the ‘special’ Shadowrun packaging (a tatty cardboard box) I would not put too much trust in CGL to come up with anything worth the money.

Looking at them right now they are spreading themselves very thin with multiple projects and product lines. Battletech seems to be the cash cow keeping everything else afloat (for now) but the way they have alienated a lot of fans with recent actions and the kickstart debacle that may not hold true for much longer. Time will tell.
