MechForce VG.
Hey Samvanratt,
Thank you for your work on the MechForce (Video Game) as it is a subject none of our regular contributors seem to know much about. BUT I do have to ask if you could please attempt to make the article a bit more "Sarna the BattleTech wiki" as it currently reads as something from a straight up video game wiki. Also as part of the process do you have any references you could add credability to the article?--Dmon (talk) 13:20, 3 October 2018 (EDT)
Hi Dmon
I was asked by Nic to do a wiki entry instead of what I'd easier do: a game review... I find wiki for games not the right medium, but he contact Sean and see if wiki+review will link together and amplify itself.
I do know this game (and MechCombat the successor) very well from 29 years of playing. The contact to Nic came from my distribution of about 1000 mech files for MechCombat, and so the mails started.
When you look into the edit page you see how often I corected small errors or the format at all. Citation/links is difficult after such a long time being abandoned; even most usenets entries have been cleared after such a long time. I'm sure I've the ascii readouts from then (I forget very easy where I read something so I store is since 1990 so I'd simply search for it when the need arises).
I already have screenshots and more BT like infos available (what weapons, incorrect BT/MF adaption), but I wait for Nic to review the article (well it's my first wiki article...) and correct the grammar AND get some real formating into the article) and tell me how to get pictures into it. He was the one who asked for the How to get it working today so others might try it. I reported about MF/MC in the old-school forum but as no reply came I was pretty sure I'm the last one alive, so I started the article to see if it works out to readable article.
