BattleTech Beginner Tips
For the first five hours or so, the game is going to throw a lot of low level enemies at you. These are often fast-moving tanks that stack up a ton of Evasion bonuses, making it difficult to hit them with weapons. Luckily, the melee attack on most of the starting mechs is extremely effective against low-level fodder. Don’t be afraid to take risks and be aggressive early on, as long as you save often. Stamping on a tank feels and looks great and is a good way to build up your team morale for those special attacks. It may seem like a cheap tactic but it will get you through the first few missions in the game.
