ORIGNAL POST: This is a "Calling Message" for BATTLETECH's Friday Night Fights (FNF.) While I will be Emceeing the event from
here in our Multi-player Section of the forum, this thread will be posted to the Main Forum, in accordance with my discussion with
@Havamal, to inform Main Forum viewers of the FNF event and any specifics of this particular Friday's Event. And then over the weekend, I'll provide a wrap up of each week's Event.
If you have questions about any of this, please join me
here to post and discuss it.
First off! You are each cordially invited to our Third BATTLETECH Friday Night Fights (FNF) starting tonight at midnight (EDT.). Feel free to drop by and join us on the
FNF Channel on the BATTLETECH Unofficial Discord Server.
And since it is now past 6:00pm Friday Night on Christmas Island, just West of the International Dateline and in the famous words of Mitch's Lord Commander...
"MechWarriors, MOUNT UP!"

Friday Night first settles into place for our fellow Oceanic BATTLETECH gamers, so I suggest beginning 6:00pm (GMT+10 or thereabouts) so Friday Night our Oceanic Gamers kick off some BATTLETECH gaming that will roll across the globe bringing Big and Stompy goodness to one and ALL. I'll be dropping into our BATTLETECH Game Lobby through out the day on Friday 31 August, starting with Oceanic's "Friday Night," then making it a point to come back during the Asian, Euro and Americas "Friday Nights" as well.
Tonight I will be running our
BATTLETECH Lance Commander Academy. The Academy curriculum will again include the following:
BATTLETECH 101 Lance Composition ~ explore tailoring a Lance to a desired play style
BATTLETECH 201 The BATTLETECH Stability System and YOU ~ mitigate against being Knocked Down, and explore tactics to Knock Down your opponent
BATTLETECH 301 Jump Cavalry: Fire and Mobility ~ BATTLETECH's TacSIM breaths Big and Stompy Life into Cavalry Tactics. Explore whether "Jump and Gun" is for you.
BATTLETECH 401 FULL UP COMPETITIVE GAME but with Talk-Through ~ we play an actual 20m Stock Match, but I'll freely provide an in-game running commentary and discussion of my Intentions, Tactics, Schemes of Maneuver and Combat Choices.
Tonight we will release an update version of the
Unofficial HBS BATTLETECH Tournament Leaderboard. This Leaderboard will be joined by a "Top 50" Leaderboard for the Inner Sphere Wars BATTLETECH League. As well as a "Top 100" BATTLETECH Multiplayer Leaderboard that is a combination of both the Tournament and League Leaderboards.
Earlier this week we saw the
conclusion of Valhalla's Tournament of Champions. A
physical prize will be awarded to the Tournament Champion.
