been reading battletech miss the campain we had going the mccoys a redneck family marc unit the leaders where the players the dropship crew and the jumpship crew was all cousins etc. it was fun redneck mechwarriors, little known to them they where decendants of the clans their grand parents where members of a group of clanners (dark cast left over wolverines) that decided 50 years ago to return to the inner sphere, after stealing a dropship a jumpship and every thing they could pack into it stolen mechs, and parts stashing some and using the rest to start a merc company retiring to terra rich and turning the ship and mechs over to the family(clan). mom and dad did the same thing turning over everything to the player characters afterthey retired, but nan and gramps left a hidden computer program in the ships computer that when messages recieved discribing the clans a file containing everything they knew about the clans and the location of the equipment stash would be released to the group. things where going well several battles and then a regiment showed up on the planet they where on and they instead of using running battles to wear a way the bad guys they face off with them and do amazing but then get annoyed when eventually i mass the toughest of the regiment against them and they get their mech shot out from under them. end of campain.
now i figured they would run off through the wood hide and either use some of there back up mechs or steal the enemies mechs and carry on the fight would have made a great story.
