Arms can be shot off, destroying any weapons equipped in them Legs can be damaged or destroyed, leaving a Mech crippled. Component Damage: Mechs will be able to receive damage to various secondary components that may have unfortunate side effects.
Various special features will also make an appearance: This single gigantic spacecraft will serve the function of an entire base in a single unit it will be defensively armed against attack with an assortment of weapons and be where players buy new units and have damaged units repaired. Players will "arrive" on the battlefield via a dropship landing from space. Lastly, there will be very little base building or simcity in BT:L. On top of the income generated by capturing and holding beacons and outposts, you will also gain income by damaging and destroying enemy assets. The second variety of beacon is the "Outpost" these special beacons give you access to otherwise unattainable features, such as the ability to build special units (like Mercenary units or Star League tech), give area-of-effect bonuses (increasing weapon range and accuracy or auto-repairing nearby friendly units) or more simple things (such as having advanced sensors or defensive weapons). Holding these standard beacons will give you a steady income of C-Bills to spend on your units. The first is a standard beacon that marks a strategically or tactically important location (or rather is supposed to). Maps, depending on size, will have anywhere from 3 to 10 or more of these beacons.īeacons themselves come in two varieties.
The primary mode of gameplay will revolve around the capture and control of various strategic locations, or beacons, placed around the map (in a way that has nothing to do with metal or geo but hand-placed by us). Gameplay will of course be multiplier-oriented as Spring lacks viable single-player in-depth campaign play, though of course Skirmish vs. Inner Sphere framework, but in the future may include individual Clans and Inner Sphere states. My drunken ramblings weren't really a proper "IMMA 'NOUNCIN MAH MOD" post so I figured I'd make a proper one.īattletech: Legacy as I've come to call it will, naturally, be a Battletech/Mechwarrior-focused RTS game on the Spring engine.
