Publication history[edit]

The game has had three editions and many expansions and adventures, the first of which was published in 1986 by FASA Corporation. In addition, numerous novels by such authors as Michael A. Stackpole flesh out the game's fictional world. There is also an animated series.

Editions[edit]

All of the three editions have been created by FASA Corporation authors. A second printing of the third edition of the game was published by FanPro, LLC (on November 2006). To reduce confusion between WizKids' MechWarrior: Dark Age games and the MechWarrior roleplaying game, FanPro renamed this reprint as Classic BattleTech RPG. The newest edition released by Catalyst Game Labs in the line of Total Warfare is A Time of War:

• MechWarrior: The BattleTech Role Playing Game (first edition: 1986)^[1]
• MechWarrior: The BattleTech Role Playing Game (second edition: 1991)^[2]
• MechWarrior: Third Edition (third edition: 1999)^[3]
• Classic BattleTech RPG (second printing of MechWarrior's third edition: 2007)^[4]
• A Time of War (released in Dec 2010)^[5]

Translations[edit]

French[edit]

The first edition of MechWarrior was translated into French by Michel Serrat for the French publishing house Hexagonal. Serrat's translation was published in 1989 under the title of Technoguerriers, which loosely translates the original English title.^[6]

Reception[edit]

Scott Tanner reviewed Mechwarrior in Space Gamer/Fantasy Gamer No. 78.^[9] Tanner commented that 'I found this supplement very useful, for not only did it provide a roleplaying side to the game, but the background material was useful in setting up scenarios and the like.'^[9]

MechWarrior was ranked 49th in the 1996 reader poll of Arcane magazine to determine the 50 most popular roleplaying games of all time. The UK magazine's editor Paul Pettengale commented: 'Over the years since its original release, FASA has developed every aspect of the background and history of the Battle Tech setting. The result is a detailed universe overflowing with potential for adventure.'^[10]
