9 An Uncivil Civil War.11 News From The Front.13 Simulator Tech: Terrain. GAUSS RIFLES SMART! (Apologies to John Ringo)ĭepartments: Editor’s Corner. There’s a universe at war out there.make your mark on it. Between BattleTech’s copious amount of fluff material and the real-world material out there (not to mention the works of Drake, Ringo, Weber, et al.) ideas are a plenty. If you’re stuck for a scenario, research. And yes, we won, but it was a meat grinder (Makes you glad the NVA didn’t have ‘Mechs). But it’s not just that: Look at Monte Diablo, did you notice any similarity to an engagement in history? Nope? Wrong! It was based on the US assaults on “Hamburger Hill” in 1970 in Vietnam. So much so that half the fun was guessing just what the roots of the LATEST plot twist was in an attempt to outwit the writers. Despite our complaints with FASA, their plot twists had some sort of historical and highbrow base. It’s not unusual for us to be able to speak of Napoleon and Xerses in the same breath and be able with some measure of alacrity to relate it to some aspect of the 31st Century. We’re a well-read bunch I dare say the most well read in the gaming hobby. It’s something I have noticed in just about every BattleTech fan. I’d take a little too well to spurs on my boots and whistling the tune to “Gary Owen” But that comes to the next point of my editorial: A love of History. That’s probably why I am a die hard Davion. They are the cavalry of the 31st Century. And that’s what captivates me about ‘Mechs. He pulled no punches in his stories, and he is every bit the hard nosed Cavalry Sergeant now as he was fifty years ago (And yes, he’s seen EVERY John Ford/Wayne Western there is).
Tanks have a funny family history with us my grandfather regaled me of many tales about his drive across France with Patton’s Third Army. This was in 1985, and at the tender age of ten, my friend bought a copy of BattleTech. I had also discovered that I liked a plucky bunch of folks known as Hammer’s Slammers. I want to say a few things about my background to CBT I started as a doe eyed kid on a steady diet of Robotech and Harold Coyle’s book Team Yankee. Heck, this is my first time editing so I am learning through the OJT School myself. Many of the folks who we’ve published here are writing for the first time for the community and as such, deserve your support and good cheer. We’re doing this as a webzine by the members of the Commando Program for the BattleTech community at large. Editor’s Corner: By Jason Weiser Hello all and welcome to the first issue of the Commando Quarterly.
