Neuerscheinungen diese Woche (KW 33 2020) – Novelle und RecGuide

Zuletzt aktualisiert am 15. August 2020 von DarkISI

Diese Woche war insgesamt relativ ruhig, dennoch hält Catalyst den Freitag wieder für Veröffentlichungen frei. Ich bin ja gespannt, wie lange dieser Takt aufrecht erhalten werden kann, freue mich derzeit aber sehr, dass es klappt. BattleTech lebt — und das war lange nicht mehr derart deutlich.

Honor’s Gauntlet (Novelle)

E-Book: 5,08 €, Taschenbuch:  9,75 €

A TEST OF LOYALTY…

Clan Jade Falcon’s war efforts draw closer to Terra, but to conquer this ultimate prize, the Falcons’ vicious Khan, Malvina Hazen, must be able to trust all of her warriors to carry out her commands without hesitation—no matter how much death or collateral damage they will cause. For Malvina, victory is the only thing that matters, and those who stand in her way suffer swift and brutal elimination.

Star Captain Archer Pryde is an unconventional Falcon MechWarrior who chafes at carrying out his Khan’s terror tactics, but he delivers results in combat, so Malvina has turned a blind eye to his beliefs so far. But when civilians on a conquered world revolt against their Clan masters, innocents are caught in the Falcons’ crosshairs. Archer and his fellow MechWarriors must prove their mettle to Star Colonel Nikita Malthus, the Khan’s vindictive advisor, by carrying out their scorched-earth orders to the letter. But are these orders a betrayal of what it means to be a true and honorable Jade Falcon? With both his loyalty and honor in question, Archer must run the gauntlet between duty and principles, or risk his own destruction.

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. Released as a series of 22 PDF-only documents through the end of 2020 and early 2021, many ’Mechs featured in this series will be collected as a single print volume upon its completion.
