I first discovered Battletech from the Harebrained Schemes game (loved the Shadorun games) then i found Tex from the black pants legion YT channel and fell in love with the universe, played a little of mech warrior (stopped because it keep crashing my computer) and now i considering reading the books.

The year is 1995, my parents just bought a new IBM. Inside the box there is a sleeve of free games. Math Blaster 2, a cartoon spelling game, Battle Beast. And one with a beautiful robot on the cover... I put it in, and the opening cutscene played: "It's gotta lock on me!"

Battletech has lived in my head rent-free since.
