Our take on MechCorp

Permanent loss defines the campaign: destroyed units do not return, so battle choices, contracts, squad composition, and research decisions carry lasting consequences across the run.

What is MechCorp?

Command a spacefaring mercenary mech squadron in turn-based tactical battles.

Choose which fights to enter and which contracts to accept while organizing the squad’s mechs and crew. A randomized world creates different events and encounters across play-throughs. The game includes 18 mech types across three base classes, with class-specific abilities, weapon and item customization, research, and equipment construction. Crew assignments affect squad performance. Decisions are permanent: destroyed units cannot return, making battle selection and resource management part of the campaign structure. Each run combines combat with squad administration, technology development, production, and exploration.
