It doesn't look like Crimson Skies.

... what's Crimson Skies?
 
I know it exists and it was one of the few games during the time I had a nice Friendly Local Gaming Store about three blocks from my house. (Yeah, my wallet hated me so much.) That's about *IT*.

GW "borrowing" ideas from other IP is not exactly new news...I'm just glad they are finally coming back to more than just warhammer....they *used* to be so good with such a broad range of IPs and products!
 
After Ebba and Alex spoke so highly of HBS during the recently completed Paradox 4Q 2019 Report to Shareholders (https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/battletech-and-paradox’s-4q-interim-report-to-shareholders.1332636/#post-26267256)

Just now I could help but think I’m another 5, 10 years, THIS could be the HBS in-Studio cafeteria! : )

Yep. Bushwacker.
 
Thanks very much @stjobe & @Havamal !

As a relatively new fan of the franchise, I'd never have identified such a Mech without your help, as most of my BATTLETECH knowledge comes from HBS's fantastic videogame as well as the Grey Death trilogy and Wolf's Dragoon old paperback novels... :)

Oh, such a thread exists? Great!

So, when does the next bug fixing-patch come?
I know, it's Corona-Time and all that, but this game has now been two years out and the circumstance that there are still contract-breaking bugs, isn't a sign of quality.

I find HBS has produced few noticeable bugs. Granted, if you're one of the people who experienced a crash to windows at launch, that would be very noticeable, but overall the quality has been pretty high at HBS.
And since this is the bickering thread, I will complain that the Stellaris game we got sits at the opposite site of the spectrum.
Good thing Mitch keeps calling the shots at HBS.
