Okay, I was wondering if there was a formula or chart for converting old MECHWARRIOR RPG (Original) stuff to the current RPG?

No, A Time of War (MW4) only has a conversion process from MW3. You could try converting from M1 to MW2 to MW3 and then to ATOW, but there'd be a lot of drift in the process.

I never liked the MW3 RPG, felt it was too restrictive. Okay, I will figure out something.

Understood. I definitely prefer MW2 and MW4/ATOW over MW3.

By current RPG you mean A Time of War or Mechwarrior Destiny?
A Time of War Companion has guidelines and conversion tables from all MW1, MW2 and MW3 to AToW. I'm not sure wheter or not MW Destiny has some conversion formulas thought

Current as in what is being pushed this year for the RPG, personally I like MW2 and its setup.

my guess is that would be both CGL's RPGs, AToW and Destiny. AToW has conversions in Companion book, but reading through Destiny book, I don't see any there.
Personally I like MW3, AToW is way too much crunchy for me, especially for character generation, it is insane. On the other side, Destiny doesn't look bad, it's rules light, narrative system for cinematic action

I have only played MW1 and MW3 missing out on MW2. However, out of the two versions I played, I have to agree that MW3 was too much. I came from Classic Traveller (CT), so MW1 seemed as if a life cycle of CT with added items, which I very much enjoyed.
Is MW2 that much different from MW1?
