    I'd kill for a Battletech series done in the style of Battlestar Galactica (2003). Set it during the Amaris Coup, beginning with the invasion of the Periphery, and ending with the SLDF's exodus into deep space.

      Hey I'm planning on making my own filmmaking studio soon so who knows maybe in 10 years times I'll be able to get the film license rights for Battletech and make a kick ass series with it. This universe has so much potential in it that I'm sure it could become the next Band of Brothers or Game of Thrones later down the road.

    For a school project this is actually really good!! And it has everything we want in it!!! So much of Hollywood wants to put everything in the movie But the main plot device, whenever they make a game inspired movie. Like the new Doom has no Doom guy. Made the same mistakes as the previous one!
    Anyway good job guys! Would love to see more of this. In case any the original team sees this comment.

    I gotta admit, if there was a Battletech live-action series based on the Dark Age Era, I'd probably watch it. Though, I would rather see a series that focuses on the Succession Wars and later on Clan Invasion with each season focusing on a different faction.

    The best cutscene I've ever seen is the initial video of Mechwarrior 4 Vengeance. Sure it's a little cheesy but it is so immersive too, and I cared more about those characters in a few minutes than I did of anyone in Mechwarrior 5 which I played I don't know how many hours of...
    It'd be cool AF if they returned to that style in the next game.

    Ugg the worst atlas, atlas 3. Definitely seen better production from folks with mor vision. Such as the old mechwarior 4 cutscene, as well as the battlepod cutscene.
    These folks rush through thier lines or have a bad director.
    CGI, was good.
    But I’m here for the history
    Yes Thunderfox, no idea what the tall clan mechs are ment to be.

      Jackalopes are the smaller ones, double gun one the Battlemaster does in is a Mangonel, and Anastasia was in a Mad Cat Mk IV, which is a return to the old 75 ton Heavy of its ancestor, with much the same loadout, though upgraded with newer tech.

    • @mikebrandon8962

      even the acting can be excused, but the engagement itself, the tactical battle is so bad. Nobody would do that thing with 2 lines approaching each other.
      That is like ww2 at best, if not ww1 poor tactics.

      @@mikebrandon8962 - I agree that it could have been done a lot better, but to your second point about WWII:
      Battletech / Mechwarrior is pretty much designed to be WWII with Mechs and some Cold War era designs for vehicles.
      In today's modern age with drone strikes and Tomahawk cruise missiles and so forth, the very idea of the Battlemech, and even assault tanks, is outdated. With the push of some buttons, they can be taken out from distance by weapons platforms significantly cheaper than what they are blowing up.
      Instead, Battletech wants to be closer to WWII and the battle of Kursk - but with Mechs.

    Your effort is appreciated but the basic engagement is, lets say, poorly thought out.
    Just look at any of the MechWarrior online streamers (in the present, but back then there were enough MechWarrior living legends videos as well) and see how real engagements would be.
    Forces would not have these lines that approach each other and barely shoot.
    Indeed, this is the way of the 1980s, when they thought out the tabletop game, but the people behind the table top game, at that time were smucks in terms of tactics, knowledge and planning, so using anything pre 2000s as a base to create something in the BattleTech universe is severely punished with the outdated mentality of those early days.
    Long range units would fill the enemy lines with barrages of bullets or beams or rockets while fast movers would flank...and definitely there would not be such a long flat stretch of desert used for the engagement with those load outs. The defenders at least would have ppcs lrms and L lasers constantly firing from vehind defense positions if they had such a flat area from where red would come, and by no means directly engaging.
    If you do another one of these videos, please take into account the tactical aspects mentioned and it will be great.
    Once again, praises for your effort to create this video.
