-- That alone isn't very interesting though. It would be FARRRRRRRR easier to just use BattleTech and then drape some THS trappings around that (it's in a simulated massive multiplayer online game, or they are real robots with the BattleTech wierdness imposed by outside agencies).
-- That is, I think it's a waste of time and effort to port the BattleTech concept if you are not going to tweak it for a different setting. If you want BattleTech just use BattleTech and swap out of that "minigame" back to THS on the fly.
