We meet 'neath the sounding rafters,
The walls all around us are bare;
They echo the peals of laughter;
It seems that the dead are there.

So stand by your glasses steady,
This world is a world of lies.
Here's a toast to the dead already;
Hurrah for the next man who dies.

Cut off from the land that bore us,
Betrayed by the land that we find,
The good men have gone before us,
And only the dull left behind.

So, stand by your glasses steady,
This world is a web of lies,
Then here's to the dead already;
And hurrah for the next man who dies.

I'm not convinced (new) FASA has the IP anymore

(looks like it's with Budgie Smuggler Games who are doing a kickstarter 'soon' focused on Centurion, but I don't know if they own the IP or have licenced it from somewhere else)

Yep... THAT's the one.

For the uninitiated, to get you caught up on the Gakshow that Battletech became...

Speaks volumes on the continued gakshow indeed....
