BATTLETECH: The Case for Comstar
1,001Well, the Youtube Members wanted me to do this opinion piece, and here it is. I perhaps share a bit too much of my own personal journey with this, with the disaster that was the #Battletech novel from the Hinterlands series.
But, what can I say? #Comstar, the #BlessedOrder, and the #WordofBlake, and especially their players and enthusiasts, deserve better.
Within, I will be talking about the death of Comstar, why that's bad for the game as a whole, and why the #DarkAge and #Ilclan era are probably never going to manage to encourage any Blakists to follow them.
Comstar was brought up several times, along with the #Celestials, when I watched the #Adepticon live-stream for the #Mercenaries #Kickstarter launch. The members more specifically asked me to do this piece, and bribed me even, to make it happen.
So here it is. I just hope it's not a total trainwreck.
I also recommend supporting the Battletech Kickstarter, which can be found here:

And I'd recommend checking out the last pieces of Comstar's lore in universe, which cover the final iteration of the #ComGuard, and the Blessed Order:
