G'day guys,

A mate of mine here would like to know if any of you know if its possible to
get the Battletech TV series on video (think he wants inspiration wrt paint
schemes etc).

Thanks

Beth

If he really wants inspiration on color schemes, I don't think that series is
the way to go unless he
wants to paint everything in green/red "camouflage"
pattern. The best thing for that would be to hunt down an old copy of the
Battletech Camo Specs book (which isn't cheap, I sold mine on Ebay for over
$60 US) or a 1st Edition copy of the Mechwarrior RPG. That one had some VERY
nice color plates in the center of the book showing battlemechs from different
factions, and it's considerably cheaper. It can
usually be found for $5-$10 US.  If you would like,
I've got a copy of it and would be willing to scan the color pages and send
them to you.

$60 for that tiny booklet?? I'm sittin' on a GOLD MINE! heh (Been
playing that game since the "Combots/Battledroids" days.

I have that Camo Spec book and am willing to scan it in. Beth, I have
your email but anyone else can contact me off-list...  (Don't forget
to take the TAKETHISOUT out of my email address... <ducks>)
