| The Strider's Strikers are based in both America and Japan. Our team has spread out over the years so we cover a bigger geographic area. I would like to thank all my friends for playing in our BattleTech games. Those folks are honored on the below page link. Many people have contributed something here or there, and that's been so helpful in the evolution of our BattleTech story. Hanging out together and expressing creativity are the best parts about this game, but you must admit the Mechs and main BT storyline are pretty darn cool. Anyhoos, here are the current active players and contributors in our BattleTech storyline. Please visit the link below to check out the original Battletech Players page and all that old school stuff. |
