Looking for some ideas about handling mech combat without miniatures. I’d like to find a system that handles the combat simply enough, so I don’t need to drag my laptop to play megamek at work.

Or do I just need to get off my butt and write this thing?

  1. Todd Zircher Probably the wrong space for this discussion but what are you trying to model fictionally/mechanically that hasn't already been solved by any number of games when it comes to Warframe? I played that game for about a year and on the surface I'm not seeing any unique issues...

  2. Let me open a separate thread on that. While there are similarities, there are also some significant differences.

  3. A super rules-lite system to handle mechs is Tiny Frontiers: Mecha and Monsters. I bought and really like the simplicity of the system, especially when it comes to running solo games.
