So which of these items would I need to run a narrative GM-based game where the players all run a small mercenary company (12 mechs) I would use ATOW or the upcoming MW: Destiny for the RPG component, and probably Alpha Strike for mech combat (as its faster than standard BT).īut where would I find rules about repairs, supply, making payroll, getting contracts etc.Ĭontinue this thread level 1 3 points 1 year ago This is literally just them splitting a 400 page book into two 200 page books.
