Will BattleTech Appeal To More Players Because Of The Rule Changes?

#battletech #strategy #tabletopgaming In this video CWDI GAMES shares love of BattleTech and asks will changing BattleTech's rules make the game appeal to more players? CWDI GAMES has created Theta Tek, a new science fiction strategy game which has similarities to BattleTech. In this video the skill rolls of BattleTech and Theta Tek are compared. In the rule changes Catalyst Game Labs made to BattleTech some piloting skill rolls have been made easier. By contrast Theta Tek rewards players who succeed at tough skill rolls. Is it better to have some hard/complex game mechanics and reward players for going through them or to make things simple? BattleTech is an awesome game. However, I feel the better choice instead of changing BattleTech's rules would have been to focus on introducing more people to the game.
