Escorting some B-29s here, or something. Hey, you guys like my Let's Plays, Longplays, Writing, and other random things I do, right? Maybe you'd consider sponsoring me on Patreon? All I ask is a $1 a month contribution. It doesn't sound like a lot, but if enough of you guys help out it will go a long way.

Operation Gorgon. Targets of opportunity! With Operation Bulldog a success and the Clan Smoke Jaguar Occupation Zone liberated, you and your Davion Guards comrades are expecting a hero's welcome back home. Unfortunately, this is not to be. Yankee and Zulu Companies have been called back into the fray once again, to eliminate the 'renegade' Smoke Jaguar Star Colonel Marcus Kotare on the barren periphery world of Cermak. Although once a Star League outpost, hundreds of years of warfare and neglect have left Cermak nothing more than a desolate wasteland of decrepit abandoned bases, wind-stripped trees, and cracked landscape. But is Kotare planning to make this his last stand, or does he have something more sinister up his sleeve? Desperate Measures was released in August 1999 by Microrprose and published by Microsoft, and together with the Mechwarrior 3 expansion pack 'Pirate's Moon' constitute the end of the all-too-short 'Microrprose Era' of Battletech video games. Thouogh technically the expansion campaign is named Desperate Measures, for simplicity's sake it's become synonymous with MechCommander Gold, as it was never released separately. Along with the Desperate Measures expansion campaign, MechCommander Gold also added new features like improved waypoints, energy-weapon-only firing orders, difficulty settings, and a mission editor. MechCommander Gold (as well as MechCommander 2) is freely available online, as the game was released as freeware several years ago. As the websites change often, just google 'Mechcommander download' and you should find it. As usual, I am playing with my original game disc. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTwUCrHaDoQ
