Part 6: Sega Genesis Battletech Part 5

Bonus Update 5

Since I have some RL stuff (job interview) and my update has been delayed (back to back shifts at work), enjoy the 5th and final mission of Battletech for the Sega Genesis! It's a really short game.

Battletech: Mission 5 (no commentary necessary)!




Video Contest!
Play through mission five with a PPC, Large Laser, and Missiles... and immediately blow your arm off by overcharging the PPC. Beat the mission with only lasers and missiles.

or!

Fanfiction Contest!
Justify why recovering one dude's (ten) giftake samples was so important that you immediately jumped from Star Commander (with Bloodname) to Khan. Use at least 1000 words.

or!

Fanart Contest!
Draw a picture of the Wolf Spider. It's a Timberwolf-derivative with a more streamlined torso and a Marauder-esque autocannon replacing the right-shoulder missile rack.

GA) Your vote counts for 5 votes next time
GB) Reinforcements! On turn 10, you enter the map as a 2nd Donegal Guards Locust! You do not count towards survival, and you will most likely die a horribly messy death, but you may distract the Clanners for a turn or two.
GC) Name a Clan Omnimech, any one of your choice (even if it doesn't appear in this battle). If you'd specifically like to name one of the designs in this battle, we can work something out.





Other, Unrelated Contest:
Entertains us with the Battletech Book 'Far Country' in some way (Let's Read it, explain how a Scout-class Jumpship can carry a Leopard dropship and draw diagrams, Film yourself lighting a copy on fire or destroying it with fireworks, reenact a scene from the book using your old G.I. Joe Snake Eyes action figures to represent the DEST troopers, do a dynamic reading, create an itemized list of terrible thing you'd rather do than read Far Country and then take pictures of yourself doing some of them, I don't care)! It may be available in PDF format, I honestly haven't looked.

FCP1) Help me plan the next scenario!
FCP2) Name five Clan Omnis!
FCP3) Help me write fluff that makes 'Far Country' a canon story in my timeline!
FCP4) Choose whether one Great House or Clan suffers either a windfall or a setback of some kind.
FCP5) Poptarts, I'm not doing this for the prize, I'm doing this to inflict Far Country on everyone!
