Has anyone played Attack! and Attack! Deluxe? Did you like it? What did you think of it? It appears to be like Axis & Allies but less complicated, but not as simple as Risk.

Catalyst Game Labs are set to take a few detours from the "Prime" BattleTech timeline, via a series of "Comtinuum" products - perhaps akin to how a number of "lost empire" and/or "Stellar Shadows" branches have been expanded upon here in the Star Fleet Universe.

First up is a product called BattleTech: Gothic; there's a preview PDF at this link offering an overview of the setting.

Personally, I hope that CGL one day use this product line to double back to the Empires Aflame setting, as first presented back in 2014.

I know its a long shot, the completsionist in me wants to know, does anyone have a copy of the original Lyran Space mail out. Yes I found some info in Nexus #6 but I can't find the counters info anywhere. Yeah, I know curiosity killed the cat. 8^p

And yeah using F&E counters might be better balanced but I am curious.

I got to play a game today, one I never heard of before: "Leviathans: The Great War" by Catalyst Game Labs. It's set about 1920, and in this alternate universe they figured out how to make battleships fly. Quite fun, but given that it's a miniatures game, I really do not need to buy into it, considering how many minis I have for other games (SFB, X-Wing, etc.)

I think my eldest played that at a local Wargames Show back in September- he enjoyed it alot (played it 3 times I think).

Catalyst was promoting it as it wasn't yet out (looks like it has been delayed).

Not sure if this is a re-release/re-print as there was Leviathians minatures game about 6 years ago??


Edit - Yes - just found it on Kickstarter - original game was releaed in 2012!

A new set of "core" products for "classic" BattleTech is being lined up by Catalyst Game Labs for release in 2026.

This includes a new Starter Box, with two IlClan-era BattleMechs to try out; a Core Box, with eight more BattleMech miniatures to make use of; and a new Core Rulebook, aimed at succeeding Total Warfare as the foundation stone for "classic" BT going forward.

If it helps any, there is a PDF which includes the changes one might expect to see in the new Core Rulebook once it arrives later this year.

It’s very smart of CGL to make the new core products set in the current ilClan era, and in so doing provide plastic minis of a bunch of “new” iconic designs - especially ones drawing from the MechWarrior video games.
