Hey /btg/, currently in the process of starting up a local BT scene in my small town, and I’m trying to come up with a sort of standardized series of intro games to guide new players into the game, both to teach them the concepts of the game and not totally overwhelm them, and wanted some feedback on how I did. The current pipeline is this:

1st game:
New player: Stock Wolverine 3/4
Me: Stock Shadow Hawk 3/4

Reasoning: In addition to teaching the basics of how mechs move, shoot, heat management, etc., both mechs are at the ideal movement speed of 5/8/5 to allow for teaching good positioning and movement. Both mechs have all the weapon types of ballistic, missile, and energy, allowing for familiarization with the weapon types, as well as bracketing fire and crit fishing. The Wolverine has a decided advantage, which will allow the newbie to win pretty easily with help from the veteran player.
