Neuerscheinungen diese Woche
Zuletzt aktualisiert am 31. Juli 2020 von DarkISI
Am Freitag gab es gleich drei Neuerscheinungen: Recognition Guide: IlClan Vol.3, Gray Markets und Slack Tide.
Am Mittwoch hat Ulisses noch ein Hörbuch auf Deutsch veröffentlicht: Augensturm: Eine Mission der Colby’s Commandos 2. Damit hatte ich nun so gar nicht gerechnet und freue mich, dass Ulisses offenbar doch noch (wenn auch nur sporadisch) BattleTech produziert.
Recognition Guide: IlClan 3
The march of technology across BattleTech’s eras is relentless—but some BattleMech designs never die. Each installment of this PDF-only series not only includes a brand new BattleMech or OmniMech, but also details Classic ‘Mech designs from both the Inner Sphere and the Clans, now fully rebuilt with Dark Age technology (3085 and beyond).
Allowing beloved units redesigned for the BattleTech: Clan Invasion Kickstarter to be competitive on “modern” battlefields, this series also includes in-universe development notes, battle histories, notable pilots, and record sheets for each ‘Mech.

COMBAT IS THEIR BUSINESS…
And business is good in the 31st century as the Third Succession War rages on battlefields ruled by the almighty BattleMech: ten-meter-tall humanoid machines of pure destruction. Continuous warfare between the five Great Houses of the Inner Sphere has led to a steep technological decline, forcing the nobility of these vast interstellar empires to rely on mercenaries to augment their standing armies and gain crucial advantages against their enemies. However, that House nobleman may be paying your unit’s bills one day, but sending you straight into a trap tomorrow. BattleMechs may be the kings of the battlefield, but money, power, and machinations are just as important in victory as an autocannon barrage.
This anthology of hard-hitting BattleTech action includes six short stories that demonstrate how Machiavellian nobles, greedy pirates, and desperate mercenary units can change the course of Inner Sphere history. Take up the cause and charge your way through war-torn tales by veteran BattleTech authors such as Chris Hussey, Philip A. Lee, and Craig A. Reed, Jr.

PEACE MAY SELL…BUT WHAT IF NO ONE’S BUYING?
On 21 May 3052, the seemingly unstoppable military juggernaut of the invading Clans was defeated in a pitched campaign on the quiet world of Tukayyid. This astonishing victory bought the weary armies of the Inner Sphere a fifteen-year stay before the invasion can resume. But despite the truce, the fire driving the Clans’ centuries-long quest to conquer Terra, the birthplace of humankind, and rebuild Inner Sphere civilization in their warmongering image has not been extinguished. Conflict still rages above the truce line, and the Clans are biding their time until the tide of war can surge up and flood the Inner Sphere once more.
Slack Tide collects nine stories that chronicle the life-and-death struggles still being waged in the wake of Tukayyid’s so-called peace. Fan-favorite authors such as Jason Hansa, Philip A. Lee, and Craig A. Reed, Jr. spin tales of undercover operatives seeking to gain the secrets of Clan BattleMech technology, Inner Sphere MechWarriors attempting dangerous escapes from Clan-controlled planets, and mercenaries fighting to protect the only things that truly matter to them—themselves and their loved ones.
The Clans’ invasion may have been temporarily halted, but the true battles for the future of the Inner Sphere have only just begun…

Augensturm: Eine Mission der Colby’s Commandos 2
Ein Sturm tost… Und Durant Carlyle steckt mittendrin fest. Seine Söldnertruppe, Colbys Commandos, hat bei dem Versuch, einen brutalen Kriegsherrn auf dem eisigen Planeten Golandrinas auszuschalten, mehr gefunden als erwartet. Die Freude über das Vermögen in Gold währt jedoch nicht lange, denn der Feind wird alles tun, um es sich zurückzuholen. Genau darauf setzen Durant und die Commandos. Mit dem erbeuteten Gold als Köder wollen sie die gegnerischen Söldner in eine Falle locken und ein für alle Mal erledigen. Aber in dem gewaltigen Sturm, der ihnen eigentlich als perfekter Hinterhalt dienen sollte, halten sich auch noch andere Dinge verborgen. Eine feindliche Mech-Streitmacht, die groß genug ist, um sie alle zu zerstören…
