The rumors you may have heard are true: Former FASA subsidiary and
current Kalamazoo business Virtual World Entertainment will be bringing
four BattleTech cockpits to Marmalade Dog 14!
For those unfamiliar with the pods this description sums them up pretty
well:
"The Tesla II cockpits, featuring the BattleTech: Firestorm software, are
fully enclosed military style simulators that feature 7 screens, over 90
control systems, and a 12 speaker surround sound system. When seated in
the cockpit or 'pod', the player will pilot his or her own walking tank
known as a BattleMech onto the virtual landscape to compete with those
seated in the other cockpits for battlefield superiority."
As always, more info on the web site: http://www.marmaladedog.org/
In other Marmalade Dog 14 news: Our charity this year is Take My Paw, a
non-profit no kill rescue.
MD14 is just one week away, we hope to see you there!
