"Personally MW3 RPG is a load bunk...I don't use it nor does my group."
It's also the current RPG ruleset. It'll be the one supported.
"The House books had errors sure, WHAT PRODUCT of FASA's didn't?"
A continuity editor would have been extremely useful, espically early on.

MW3 RPG is another case of FASA not listening to the majority of the fans...whether or not it's the offical one doesn't matter to me since I won't be using it or any of it's products.

I agree with you here...so maybe like NOW would be a good time to get one...

I actually like the MW3 RPG book, it's kind of complicated to read at first but then...learning Btech was pretty intricate at first too....
Did you really give it a shot?

MechWarrior 3rd Edition? Oh, I love it. Frankly, 1st and 2nd editions were just pilot factories. 3rd moves away from straight BTech integration, towards more of a stand-alone game.

>>>Frankly, 1st and 2nd editions were just pilot factories.<<<
1st and 2nd editions were ROLEPLAYING GAMES, every bit as much as 3rd edition is.
They had better Battletech integration, 'tis true, but I hardly see where that is a bad thing in The Battletech Roleplaying Game.
But that's your opinion, and, as wrong as it is, you're still entitled to it.

I agree with you Bob.
Why call something "mechwarrior" if it deals with everything but? Mechwarrior 1 and 2 were true to the name, I hardly see why #3 deserves the same right as the other two obviously closer to the name versions.

Sorry Bob to disagree with you. As I have been Role-Playing now for over 25 years and I have found both MW1 and MW2 lacking in detail. MW3 has far more detail in my personal opinion to satisfy my needs as a Role-Player and as a GM. I find MW3 as a Role-Playing system as good as 'Twilght 2000', 'Traveller', Gamma World, Mercenary, Spies & Private Eyes' just to mention a few.
But that's your opinion, and, as wrong as it is, you're still entitled to it.
Correct its his opinion, just like you are expressing your opinion. Pray tell how do you prove to him and I our opinions are wrong? Just because you say so? I would then counter with, "Get some time in life in Role-Playing before you tell me my opinion is wrong!"   Anyway, we all have our opinions. They are neither write or wrong because they are based on our personal preferences. And I believe when MechWarrior 3 Companion comes out we'll have a better gaming system too.

Bleh.
I hate to be put in the position of agreeing with Warner on anything.
But MW3 is better, and MW2 and MW1 were severely lacking in flavor or substance. (And that's 24 years of RPG talking.)
Now, if you will excuse, me I need to go rinse my mouth out. Feels like someone took a swing through it with a manure rake.

The game still includes MechWarriors. They're just no longer the focus of the RPG.

So was this said in a mature and respectful manner?????

Nope it wasn't. He pissed me off. I didn't catch myself in time. I screwed up and let my emotions get the better of me. No excuses. I am man enough to own up to my mistakes. For stating that to him I do apologize. No matter what I should never had spouted off like that. I was wrong.
