yea but whats consistent with b-tech games? the model accuracy (which is why i didnt like mw4)
if it doesnt look like an atlas its not an atlas, MW2 tried the hardest to make everything accurate and that's why i love mw2:mercs

it is true that not everything translates properly but if the base designs don't look right then its not btech, its whatever the person who made it wants it to be...with a btech style.

even Megamek, b tech on the computer, dosent translate out exactly. there are things in megamek that you can't do in btech, as well as vice versa.

there was that game that Fasa Interactive sorta made, only put it in Alpha or Beta.
It was the board game, but I cannot remember what it was called. There was a thread that npsbre and I were talking about it

and i think limitations of Megamek is mostly because of the limitations of the people who program and the people who play megamek. Java isnt an easy language to program :?
