I have found a few problems with the age of war technical readouts. The first problem is you don't gain access to the building system used for the vehicles, aero, or mechs, and any battletech fan knows that is half the fun of battletech. The second issue is these books are tiny, roughly 1/5 of a Fasa sized tech readout. Spending 25-30 dollars for all of them for a digital copy is just not worth it. I bought the 1st and 2nd and will not bother with any of the others.

A highly detailed and fascinating view of what - to the contemporary Battletech pilot - may be primitive mecha, even if they look pretty advanced to us.

Each comes with a full page of technical detail, illustration and background notes, written in an academic style suitable to the 'technical manual' that this work purports to be. You could easily imagine this work gracing the shelves (or digital storage) of some future afficionado much as a gun nut or petrolhead pores over detailed manuals about the object of his obsession. Indeed, these pages could easily become an in-game resource for those who enjoy the role-playing elements of the Battletech universe.

And of course, if you want to try them out, each one also has a full record sheet so that you can fight with them in an arena or combat scenario.

The range is good, from fixed wing support vehicles and troop carriers to out-and-out fighting machines, so pick what you want and set to... whether you prefer a straight brawl or want them to feature in a role-playing adventure where combat is, as ever, a possibility.
