    Relax to the retro sounds and nostalgic beats of this Synthwave mix, created specifically for the enjoyment of Battletech and Mechwarrior fans. The retro '80s aesthetic of Battletech matches perfectly with this retro-inspired music.
    These retro-futuristic sounds make the ideal background music to a Battletech or Alpha Strike game, or indeed ideal listening in a seedy backstreet bar on Canopus IV while you enjoy some well-deserved R&R.

I certainly don't hear that many people outside of the fandom talk about it, though that might also because more strategic, turn based games like these especially coming from a relatively small indie studio are a bit of a niche thing.
      But who knows, I'm sure HBS would jump at the opportunity of making another turn based BT game, whether they'll get the chance to make one is another thing, fingers crossed!

    Can you imagine how epic it would be to have a Battletech game with the WarThunder system? like, seeing shots penetrate armor and hit vital machinery, Watching as armor gets melted away with each hit, aiming for enemies ammunition’s to cause ammo destruction and immediately disable limbs?
    Seeing the trajectory of a round that penetrates the cockpit, narrowly missing the pilot, only to explode behind him and send lethal shrapnel cascading through the back of the pilot seat?

    As a Mechwarrior let me just say my Giant Mechs are loving these tunes. Right now I’m in my 10 miles deep giant mech hangar and it might as well be a discotek in here. These giant mechs are swinging their energy blades & shields like glow sticks, some are gyrating on the armory cranes while shooting their thrusters to the amusement of the giant mech crowd, their tossing shells and artillery rounds like dollar bills, I’ve even seen a few sneak off to the maintenance/repair wing for some heavy action if you know what I mean 😉. After so much continent crushing, asteroid smashing, interstellar defending missions these giant mechs really needed this,

You would acquire and manage different mechs and customize the loadouts; you do all the moving and shooting too. It was pretty slow and clunky, especially by today's gaming standards, but it was good fun.

    Let's set the scene. 4 Mercenary MechWarriors, hired as "security consultants" by ComStar are off duty in a seedy night club in Crimson, Canopus, Magistracy of Canopus. Two ex-FedRat pilots looking for a quick C-Bill (One from the Outback and a through the ranks promotion, the other an upper middle class academy grad from New Avalon), a Steiner minor noble running from trouble, and a Kuritan who keeps saying stuff about being Rasalhaguian and independent who is trying to gain experience before fighting the oppressor.
    The music is thumping away in the background and this is where they all first meet, having been hired individually by ComStar and sent seperately to Canopus.
    They must now work together to help ComStar and Canopus find out the source of these periphery pirates that show up in Canopian space to land on worlds near the settled edge of the realm to abduct people and take them to places beyond.
    Welcome to Canopus, the year is 3025.

    The year is 3057. A struggle for power fuels a society of warring clans. Bitter infighting perpetuates a universe of unrest. War is constant, victory is temporary, and cease-fire is nonexistent. A pause in a stream of salvos is only a signal to re-calibrate crosshairs and redirect missiles. Time is scarce before the next unrelenting mission begins. For a MechWarrior, war is life and death is the only true peace.

    Ah, dear connoisseur of musical brilliance, your rhapsodic acclaim for the Magistracy of Canopus masterful artistry in this synth wave resounds like the celestial harmony of a symphonic serenade. Your fervent pursuit to unveil every precious gem of his compositions is akin to an ardent quest for hidden treasures within a melodic labyrinth. Indeed, this maestro's virtuosity surpasses the confines of mere mortal expectation, akin to a celestial emissary gracing us with harmonious ambrosia.

    The Magistracy is such an underrated gem of a state. Oh sure, they say it’s space Vegas, run by mommy dommies
 but it’s a lot deeper than that. The Magistracy has a top notch intelligence agency that actually works for its people, it manages to keep itself out of disastrous wars (for the most part), and always manages to get its opponents to underestimate it. The lost planets within Magistracy space hold lost treasures like Dictator dropships, lost research facilities, and all sorts of interesting oddities. Cybernetic doctors, pleasure circuses, and their unique ‘Penny’ heavy mech.
    You can have it all in the Magistracy! What’s not to love?

    Lightning crackles in the heart of the storm,
    This steel colossus, my battle form.
    An iron titan, against threats sworn,
    By dawn's first light, a legend is born.
    Echoes of thunder rumble in the sky,
    As I stomp through the battlefield, where foes lie.
    Missiles blaze, leaving trails on high,
    Their futile challenge, a mere outcry.
    Shields ablaze with an ethereal glow,
    Reflecting the moonlight on the fallen below.
    Through the dark night, shadows grow,
    But in this steel cage, fear I forego.
    Steel meets steel in a resounding clash,
    As I engage foes with a devastating smash.
    From my cannon's mouth, the bullets flash,
    Turning opposition into nothing but ash.
    Through smoke and fire, this battle rages,
    Each act of courage, history's pages.
    With iron resolve that never ages,
    Victory the song that my heart engages.
    Rising above the clamor and the din,
    With each hard-fought and precious win.
    In the echoes of battle, a chilling hymn,
    An orchestra of valor, playing from within.
    The sun will rise on a battlefield quiet,
    Bearing witness to the overnight fight.
    In the heart of the mech, the warrior's delight,
    Victory's song echoing in the first light.

    ANA-1E Annihlatior. Quad Large Pulse Lasers, Twin ER Large Lasers (The ones the mod allows) and Quad Medium Pulse Lasers and as many double heat sinks as well fit that can be found.
