Battletech Grinder
The Grinder is a casual event great for all ability levels where players only pilot one ‘Mech at a time. The general idea of the Grinder is that players start with a simple, small ‘Mech that uses basic weapons and rules. When they die they get a bigger, better ‘Mech that has slightly more complicated weapons and rules. This way new players are introduced to the vast rules of tabletop Battletech.
Nick Connor host Classic BattleTech for 8-12 players.
