BungleTech: A BattleTech Podcast

In our 46th deployment of BungleTech my spheroid co‑host Michael and I are joined by BattleTech designer Keith Hann as we dive into the brand‑new BattleTech Core Rule Book. We break down how the updated rules impacted our previous BungleTest Core Revision, explore Keith’s experience navigating the design process, and chart the future trajectory of the book.

In our forty‑fifth deployment of BungleTech my spheriod co‑host Michael and I recount our most recent descent into BattleCheckers madness (that's Classic BattleTech with BSPs only). Armed with the new mission generator from the updated BattleTech Core Rule Book, we set out to play a simple and disciplined match… and naturally ended up bungling half a dozen rules anyway.

In our fortieth deployment of BungleTech, Michael and I take a trip to Japan as we dive into a brian cache of Japanese BattleTech releases recently unearthed by members of the community in our primary topic segment and ask ourselves the question: is this even BattleTech or have we wandered into some Tetatae adjacent alternative BattleTech timeline? Strap in as we tour a place where familiar ’Mechs sport unfamiliar silhouettes. Just like a Marauder II crashing its way through a densely packed residential block, It’s a journey of equal parts discovery and destruction.
