And if their whole team worked on the BattleTech expansions, well then they’re either much smaller than I thought or took it very chill.

It’s pretty disappointing that Lamplighters’ League doesn’t give me the ability to blow parts off my enemies to build my own new troops so they can go out and blow up more enemies.
