But it's still fun as heck, so I'm not complaining. The game has an astoundingly detailed background, as well as rules that, as anyone with half a brain can see, are utterly unrealistic. Things like the AT-ST's and AT-AT's from Star Wars count, too.īattletech is a board/strategy/tactical/rpg/whatever game created by FASA, where you control giant, 20+ ton armored robots (or Battlemechs) as they fight each other, stomp crunchies (infantry), etc. Powered Armor, or even the loader-suit that Ripley uses in Aliens could be classified as 'mecha'. Characters like the Transformers would be considered 'mecha', as would the Veritechs/Valkyrie fighters or the Destroids from Robotech.

A 'mech' is, in essence, a Giant Humanoid Robot(tm). What is 'Mecha'?, you may exclaim in a confused voice. Generally, this lists what the main features of the particular page/set of pages are, so that if you're looking for something specific it's easier to find. Also, when available, I've added short 'reviews' of the page. I'm putting links to everything mecha-related that I can turn up on the net here. You can go directly to an item by clicking on the list of stuff below, or you can simply wander through the entire form.

This document is divided into sections, each one dealing with a different anime or role-playing game (or both). Tell your friends! Tell your family! Tell everyone! Just remember, even with the voluminous text, the low graphics load and lack of tables and javascript and frames means this page'll still load faster over your slow modem line. But even as we speak, I'm working to trim out bad links, do much-needed checks and updates, and other such maintenance. Wow! I haven't updated this page in way too long.
