PART 3

Drawing Your Own Mechs

One way to escape into this world is drawing your own mechs. Or you can trace some mechs out of the guide book and put additions on them.

Escaping into the future

The Battletech future world is actually a fascinating vision of the future. There are no aliens like in Warhammer. Humanity is constantly at war with itself. For science fiction escapes, Battletech is one of the most popular franchises around.

Tip

Just about every Battletech novel can be purchase on Amazon.com. If you want to buy whole lots to enjoy this series, you can on Ebay (as I have).

Many major stores like Barnes & Noble carry dozens of Battletech novels.

Warning

Some Battletech novels are good, others fail to entertain. Read up on reviews.

The prices of the very old stories can be quite high, sometimes reaching over a hundred dollars. You can find better deals at your local used book store, or even major outlets.
