85/100
A deep tactical wargame with strong fundamentals supporting a broadly successful campaign system.

A compelling fusion of tabletop manoeuvring and characterful campaign progression

7.5/10
Lumbering and flustering at times with a dry narrative, BattleTech still provides a solid strategy experience true to its roots

Great game
If you're a BattleTech fan, or want a more tactical version of MechWarrior, or even just like tactics games, check this out. It's great!

Poor game design
Game could be fun if FOV and physics were respoected. Tactic has almost no value and AI will always burst one of your mech. Some objectives are so clear that you don't know what to do. And overall balance is garbage, since you can shoot with a 80€ succes chance to hit but you'll fail, multiple times.

Overall a great game after many years
I played this game back on gamepass a few years ago. Picked up the entire mercenary collection on steep sale on Gog. Its great! Overall managing your merc company, positioning on the battlefield, heat management and popping enemy mechs with a well placed shot feels great! Overall seems to run pretty smoothly on SSD / Decent hardware. Probably my favourite intro video of any video game. Got me interested in Battletech Lore.

2500 hours played
Honestly, it's my favorite game. I played the table top game for years, and this is the first game I've played that genuinely scratches that itch to play.
