Description

CGL's first PDF exclusive mini-Technical Readout or TROlet, Experimental Tech Readout: Mercs (shorted as XTRO:Mercs) provides full fluff, stats and records sheets on experimental variant prototypes and one-off refits utilizing Experimental Technology developed on Arc-Royal of five BattleMechs, four Combat Vehicles, three AeroSpace Fighters and one Conventional Fighter from previously released Technical Readouts.

From the back cover

As the Inner Sphere reels from the devastating Jihad, factories have been shattered and supply lines strained. As the collective might of the Inner Sphere’s military industries rally to the cause, technicians plying the wreckage of a thousand battles across the war-ravaged realms scramble to piece together new weapons for the fight against the Word of Blake. Armed with prototype weapons and equipment rushed to the front lines, a new age of experimental BattleMechs, vehicles, and fighters dawns.

Experimental Tech Readout: Mercs highlights a sample of the prototype designs that have begun testing in the BattleTech universe during the Jihad. Each design featured in this book incorporates some of the latest technologies to debut in the war against the Word of Blake, as first described in Tactical Operations. Statistics and Record Sheets are included for 13 new experimental BattleMechs, vehicles, and fighters, ready for play in advanced BattleTech games.

Notes

  • Apparently under development for some time, the title was apparently killed off on various grounds. With some arm twisting, Herb was convinced to revive the title, [1] and using the bare bones of the original was able to re-write and release it within a mere 12 days just in time for Christmas. [2]
  • After Technical Readout: 3055 Upgrade, this is only the second official product to include designs utilizing Experimental equipment.
