Personally, I think the future of BattleTech is whatever you want it to be. FASA I feel like Marvel let certain things like the video game get away from it along while ago. Creative control even before its demise was a shaky proposition que the Somerset Strikers. Before Bradshaw starts going on about everything that the original game ripped off (much like Pacific Rim) I want to say how much fun it all is to me still but I really don't have anything invested in the ilClan storyline. Will I see what happens? Sure but it won't be like my emotional investment back in the day when say Focht said Terra isn't that important or Victor fights an entire Civil War only to let his sister go, yikes... Look I loved the job that Herb and others did with the Jihad, I mean they picked up a storyline which was all kinds of blurted up and did a fantastic job with it. I mean they almost made the Word of Blake plausible, not easy to do. BattleTech Shattered Dawn was the first of my alternate settings which attempted to go its own way before the Year of the Star League sat on it. Now with Salient Horizons I am trying to do the same. Go off in another direction while canon is doing the kickstarter in what is the Golden Age of my BattleTech playing. I know that probably sounds old to many younger fans of the universe who want to see the next chapter written but I like it right here.
