Are these the 'old' type rules, circa 1990's, where the armor is represented by tiny circles, PPCs do 10 points of damage and heat sinks are important?

This is the current version of the classic Battletech rules. Hex maps, damage locations, armor pips, and all. The box set is focused mainly on mechs, but the various rulebooks add in campaigns, combined arms and all the other details.

Check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyI0Ge9cnqI The Slim Armor performs pretty well in this test, but will probably hold up far better in real-world scenarios.

It came with instruction on how to play. There is no writing on it. We just play that if you wrap it on the bottom it's 5 pts, middle is 10 pts and too is 15 pts. Games go to 100 pts. That gives you a good 10 min game usually.

These components looked just like my components in the base set. It does not have the cool components that come in the upgrade pack. I have had the base set for a long time; it is probably a first edition. I was not aware the 4th edition had upgraded components.

It does. There is a great video by Ricky Royal that will eliminate most of that, because while there are a ton of rules to this game, they all make sense in the grand scheme of things, so that once you have the rules down, there's very little "re-remembering" - the rules kind of stick, once you have them down. Here is the link to that video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_zW9zDxeYUGood luck!

the symbol gs and 18/10, is what is stamped on each piece in teensy tiny, but I don't remember the maker from the box that I threw out. If the little symbol means something to you, you're ahead of the game because I don't know any more than that. My guess is that Gourmet Settings is a company, but I don't know that

The Library Risk game set uses little colored blocks. Modern Risk sets use infantry, cavalry and artillery figures for game pieces.

Similar in idea as you have limited actions based on a character sheet. Mostly determined by dice rolls of specific symbols. More story based though

Yes. I wondered why you asked that so I looked up the listing. No idea why the one image shows those plain playing pieces. Must have been an older version. It's a very fun game. Good for learning strategy.

I've never played D & D but I've played some other games where figure sizes are comparable. My opinion is that if it's close to the size of whatever game you're playing, why not use them? I think that goes for any RPG game if you want to use figures for a visual effect or simply to keep track of character numbers/hit points.

That game, in the case of Haswell is CPU dependent. Sad but true. Maybe in the total war forums you could get a more explicit answer.

There was a basic set and a higher level set if I remember correctly. Been a while. Best you read the specs carefully.

The box says "Over 90." The kit is rated for 10 yrs + and a level 2 (whatever that is).

The graphics are slightly different than I remember. For instance, the ghost looked more like a torso attached to a giant foot in the version I had a long time ago. Also, I don't remember if the original had things on the back of some of the tiles, but in this one there are symbols that can be used for more complex game play. And the player pieces are more detailed. If memory serves, they were a lot like 'Sorry!' pieces, but in this one they are wizards/sorcerers and a sorceress. And of course, this version comes in a nice tin box as opposed to a cardboard one.

Unk. This is not what was issued to me. But I was in the military in the 1980,sIt maybe what's being issued today but I can not verify that, I can tell you that I am very happy with my purchase of it. I use it when camping and take it for hiking.

I guess its better graghics, I think the old version was DOS based and the new version is windows based, unless I am showing my age and there was another version between the DOS based and Windows based games.
