January 27, 2025Episode 26 - BattleTech's Most Controversial Opinion
In our first deployment of season 3 of BungleTech, Michael and I throw some shade as we scientifically and irrefutably determine the most controversial BattleTech opinion in our primary topic, we discuss a minor and common rule mistake we see on the table regarding the Minimum Range band in our rule check discovery segment, and we then read the story Ace Darwin and the Battle of the Beer Fridge written by James Bixby. Get those flamers juiced up MechWarriors, its time to burn the world down!

About BungleTech: A BattleTech Podcast

From the publisher's feed

This is a podcast for the unintentional rule breakers, for BattleTech fans old and new, that love the franchise, but like us still struggle to remember the hundreds of pages of rules and smorgasbord of lore.
