Battletech: Technical Readout: 2750

Rating:
Summary: Worth buying if you can find it
Review: A good book which showed off the advanced 'mechs available to the SLDF and the lostech they mounted. A bit overshadowed now days by the fact that most of the new and rare weapons are standard and that most of the 2750 'mechs which didn't appear in TR 3050 are in the revised 3025, but getting this book and the original TR 3025 is a better deal for the amount of 'mechs. Also features Star League vehicles, Dropships and Warships, though most are vastly different when they appear in TR 3057

Summary: This book was disappointing compared to the 3025 readout
Review: The 2750 readout gave us a number of new vehicles, aerospace fighters, warships and personal equipment to use, but what we really wanted was MECHS!!! This readout gave us a tiny 20 new designs. I was disappointed with the brief descriptions given, the non-existance of varients and the poor choices of design. They should have included some info on Star League spec. 3025 mechs too. The art work was okay and the layout was familiar.

Summary: A GREAT Book
Review: This book was a very good book for reference to the 2750 time era. It gave a good background of what was going on for the intro of the book, and the Mech designs were good. I especially enjoyed the Mechs such as the King Crab and the Highlander. With examples like those, it is easy to comprehend how much technology was lost when Alexander Kerensky left the Inner Sphere.

Summary: One of the better Tech Readouts
Review: This Technical readout covers 'Mechs, vehicles, starships and equipment from an era much vaunted in the story of the game, yet ill-covered by the creators of the game. 2750 was roughly the pinnacle of humanity, a time when man was master of all they could see and at peace. Or at least that's what people of today believed. People like Stefan Amaris and the rock he turned over when he assassinated the First Lord told otherwise. Yet technology-wise, it was a time of great heights. With the development of 'Mechs with technology unrivaled by what could be produced 250 years later by the Inner Sphere and the creation of massive warships capable of unleashing unheard of firepower, this Technical Readout hints at the power the Clans had at their inception and built upon, and the technology that nations fought over for two and a half centuries.
