Welcome to the game of armored combat set in the 31 st century! One of the longest running military sci-fi games (since 1984), BattleTech puts you in the cockpit of a humanoid "walking tank". Ranging from 20 to 100 tons and standing from 10 to 17 meters, BattleMechs are the premier unit of warfare, piloted by you, a MechWarrior. Set in 3025, mankind has spread to the stars after the discovery of faster than light travel, but conflict was never far behind. The once great Star League that united all of humanity has long since fallen. The League fractured into five major houses along with numerous smaller factions. In this region of the galaxy, known as the Inner Sphere, practically every planet has seen some conflict while others have known nothing but a constant state of warfare with BattleMechs leading the charge. Will you fight in the armed forces of a great house, become a mercenary working for the highest bidder, or join the bands of pirates that prey on the fringes of known space?

Players will choose their BattleMech from a selection of predetermined units to battle it out with their opponents in a full 3D terrain environment. For players that are familiar with BattleTech the tech level will be Introductory using common units found in the year 3025 (Succession Wars era). Players will be able to drop-in or drop-out over the course of the demo, with replacement mechs available as players are destroyed, to get right back in the action! Each player that participates in the demo will also receive one random miniature to keep. The mini will be unpainted, however painting the miniature is half the fun of BattleTech!

So jump in your mech and get out there MechWarrior! No guts, no galaxy!
