==Description==
 
==Description==
'''''Classic BattleTech RPG''''' is a role-playing game set in the [[BattleTech]] universe. It is a [[FanPro]] reprint of the 1999 ''[[MechWarrior, Third Edition]]'' with a new cover. This was done to avoid confusion with [[MechWarrior: Dark Age]] and its successors. For all intents and purposes, the contents of the two books are identical (with the exception of updated errata).

'''''Classic BattleTech RPG''''' is the latest role-playing game set in the [[BattleTech]] universe. This version is tied to the BattleTech storyline more than the previous iterations, as a character's home determines many aspects of their stats, not just their background. In addition to providing a comprehensive character creation system that builds backgrounds as well as statistics, ''Classic BattleTech RPG'' contains a plethora of information so that players who may not be familiar with the BattleTech setting can still jump in and play. Also included is a full-color inset that is designed to give players a quick feel for each major faction.
