[QUOTE="Mongoose_Matt, post: 470069, member: 239"] Cheers for the comments guys. Emiricol - I have to admit, I thought long and hard about posting the WTC part of the background on an open forum, as I know some people are still (it has only been a year) sensitive over it. On the other hand, recent events that have stemmed from it are no longer the province of just one country and that, in part, is one thing we wanted to address with the background of the game. I am pushing our writers to find the 'extreme' in books such as this, as that is where good games and good fiction lie. But if just one person considers events in the world today in relation to this setting, we may have done more than just cobbled together another sci-fi RPG. But that is in the future. Trancejeremy - I have been using a large whip over this setting, making sure our writers do their research, not just into the technology (which is understandably a major factor in the game) but also world politics, of the present and the past so. I am hoping we will cater for those who just want to jump into a Mech and start blasting (and why not? :)), as well as those looking for a deeper setting that can be expanded way beyond the front line. We are also preparing a range of novels to support WarMech, and it is in this latter area we will be concentrating plot lines. Though no doubt there will be huge explosions too :) Wikidogre - Give us a few more days, and I'll see if we cannot get another preview going! Playtesting is reaching completion, and the book itself is having its I's dotted and T's crossed. This is purely my own opinion, but I think WarMech is going to be a cracker, perhaps even knocking Slaine off our top spot. But then how do we intend to top WarMech.
