These designers and engineers did such an amazing job with this game. Any difference between this game and the original tabletop game I played in the 80s and early 90s is unnoticeable to me as an adult. No other Battletech title ever captured the spirit of that game in the way that this one did; sometimes because of a lack of technology, as in CHR, sometimes because of market pressure. This one as far as I can tell was both a commercial success and achieves a certain fidelity with regards to the original military strategy game.
