Bonus points for guessing if the Soviet rockets explode. And, as always, the points mean nothing. Taking on this challenging game, playing as both sides in this campaign to show off both the US and USSR's hardware and 'nauts. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6woV3lP_f2Y

"4 points of armor? That's ridiculous." I have been longing to do this one for a long time, I know I already did a straight playthrough but this will be a lot of fun. This is literally the first PC game I ever played and the game that introduced me to the BattleTech world. We're going to go really deep in here and explore what makes MechWarrior 2 such a classic. https://www.patreon.com/L1011Widebody ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRt0Td5a6qM

The often-overlooked, sadly underrated Hardball 5 by Accolade has such an awesome soundtrack. Here is part of it. This one plays when you're in the menu for batting practice or home run derbies or such. It sort of melds themes 1 and 2.

"That's misogynist! You shouldn't shoot a woman in the face, even if she is piloting a 75-ton war machine!" With Operation Bulldog a success and the Clan Smoke Jaguar Occupation Zone liberated, you and your Davion Guards comrades are expecting a hero's welcome back home. Unfortunately, this is not to be. Yankee and Zulu Companies have been called back into the fray once again, to eliminate the 'renegade' Smoke Jaguar Star Colonel Marcus Kotare on the barren periphery world of Cermak. Although once a Star League outpost, hundreds of years of warfare and neglect have left Cermak nothing more than a desolate wasteland of decrepit abandoned bases, wind-stripped trees, and cracked landscape. But is Kotare planning to make this his last stand, or does he have something more sinister up his sleeve? Desperate Measures was released in August 1999 by Microrprose and published by Microsoft, and together with the Mechwarrior 3 expansion pack 'Pirate's Moon' constitute the end of the all-too-short 'Microrprose Era' of Battletech video games. Thouogh technically the expansion campaign is named Desperate Measures, for simplicity's sake it's become synonymous with MechCommander Gold, as it was never released separately. Along with the Desperate Measures expansion campaign, MechCommander Gold also added new features like improved waypoints, energy-weapon-only firing orders, difficulty settings, and a mission editor. MechCommander Gold (as well as MechCommander 2) is freely available online, as the game was released as freeware several years ago. As the websites change often, just google 'Mechcommander download' and you should find it. As usual, I am playing with my original game disc. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-Z1fXlZXo8
