Mech Factory offers a searchable, categorized database of Classic BT units with relevant stats and record sheets. It provides information about components and their board game rules, and contains brief descriptions about the CBT powers, fractions, clans, worlds and history.
Beside the library the app features Mech, Combat and Support Vehicle, Aerospace, Battle Armor and Infantry Editors, a Roster Creator, a Virtual Record Sheet system and a simplified combat trial simulation to test out new or existing designs.
Simple graphics help cards and a more detailed video tutorial will guide your first steps.
Because this app uses the database of the Mech Factory (https://battletech.rpg.hu), it requires internet access to download larger texts or pictures. After you downloaded a design, it will remain on your device, and it will be accessible offline. To enable content downloading you have to register your free account on the Mech Factory (if you don't have it already). With a valid Mech Factory user name you can use both the web page and the mobile app.
NOTE: Registration is needed to use all the features. That policy we cannot change - it is mostly due security reasons. Read our privacy policy about that, if you are worried about your data. If you have technical problems with registration, please send us your report.
(As a quick fix, please try to uninstall/install, and then register. It might help. Be sure that you are online during the registration process.)
