ewilen Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 A pointer: it would help if you could be a bit clearer with your inquiries. That said, this link might get you started: http://www.schwag.org/~rocky/btech/Retro/Lost/ Also this: http://brianscache.com/unseen/ Maybe you'd have some more luck asking in a Mechwarrior/Battletech forum (?)

JsARCLIGHT Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Most of the Battletech original units were "swiped" from animes like Dougram, Macross, Crusher Joe and the like. Do a search for those and you'll hit all you need to about the early line art for them. Quote
nathan Posted December 30, 2004 Author Posted December 30, 2004 Info as in history and game stats, line art, etc... Thank you for the sites but they've only confirmed what I already know. I suppose I'll have to try. I just thought I'd try here first. Yes I know that many of the early battlemechs were barrowed from other series but several were not. And there's still thier game history. I'll just have to keep looking I guess. Quote

I realy like the powerhits game manual since it looks like those old readout tech books. Quote
Skull Leader Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 perhaps if you mentioned what mechs you wanted stats on in particular? I've got all of the early (pre-edited) Tech readouts that have all of the "lost" designs. Just tell me what you want to know Quote

promethuem5 Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Hi nathan! Im a Battletech person who can help you out. Brian's Cache is an excelent site for this stuff, btu if you want anything more specific, come on over to www.lordsofthebattlefield.com Its a Battletech forum, and we can answer any more specific BD questions you have. And for clarification, the Battledroids minis wera the early Battletech designs. SOme of them were the unseen mecha designs, but others were orignal designs....none of them ever got stats tho I think, or at least I havent seen any for the original designs. Quote
mondamoto Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 What info are you looking for I own a copy of the original battledroids and 2nd through 4th edition of the battletech boxes? Quote
nathan Posted December 31, 2004 Author Posted December 31, 2004 Thanks everyone. I'm looking for pictures/line art, game stats, mech histories, that kind of thing for the original battledroids. I know a lot of them where in Tech readout 3025 and 3050 but some of them were changed from the original. Several others have also made a come back but I'd like to know more about the originals.
