Is BattleTech dead?

Far from it! FASA sold the rights to WizKids Inc., run by FASA founder Jordan Weisman. WizKids will be continuing the BattleTech universe after a 60 or 70-year leap. FanPro, a German game company, has been licensed to continue producing the game materials for the current BattleTech game. WizKids will also be producing a new form of BattleTech based upon the Combat Dial System used in their Mage Knight game. The game is currently in the early development stages and should be released at GenCon 2002. A bit outdated but you probably heard of MechWarrior Dark Age or Age of Destruction. It’s quite alive as you probably found out and if you didn’t Google it. As an update Catalyst Game Labs has purchased most if not all of the BattleTech rights and they are thriving on it. BattleTech is far from dead, in fact it’s coming back with a bang.
