Exactly what you want it to be - a good mobile app to design Battle tech units. Well-made, works great, and easy to use.

A serious effort needs to be made to add proper quirks to all 'techs, and the BV/C-bills calculations can sometimes be off a bit, but it's a dang useful app for list or 'mech building.

Great app for mech research and list building. Record sheets are good, but not the quality of Megamek on PC. No super heavy mech sheets at all.

A lot of cost inaccuracies. Do not rely on this app to provide accurate information. Use an official source over this every time if you are building a list using bv or pv. Edit: Yeah, definitely not changing my review after your comment. I am not jumping through hoops beta testing this for you, it's a "cute" little app, but it is inaccurate. Telling me my review is unconstructive, and im just complaining makes you sound pompous. Problems I found are just lazy development.

It wants real name, city that I live in, and my email, yeah nah m8 seems like a pretty poorly disguised phishing operation to me. There is no reason for them to need any of that info. Edit 8/8/22: In response to the dev doing exactly what I was hoping for and replying trying to make me look like the fool I'll give him a reply; If an app requires info and will not let you proceed to the rest of the app without said info is by definition compulsory. Your app does this for name, city, & email

To increase the weight above 100 tons you need to pay. For what? Designing virtual techs costs money? I guess for upkeep but dude. Genuinely sucks, lost interest when I couldn't build a super heavy. I can now understand the low rating.

You aren't even allowed to get in unless you allow the app to access your phone personel files. Why? Smh what a waste of my hope. Avoid apps like this that just want ro steal your personel info.

By Mech Factory, from Google PlayDescription by Mech Factory Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Mech Factory offers a searchable, categorized database of Classic BT units with relevant stats and record sheets. It provides information about components and their board game rules, and contains brief descriptions about the CBT powers, fractions, clans, worlds and history.
Beside the library the app features Mech, Combat and Support Vehicle, Aerospace, Battle Armor, ProtoMech and Infantry Editors, a Roster Creator, a Virtual Record Sheet system and a simplified combat trial simulation to test out new or existing designs.
Simple graphics help cards and a more detailed video tutorial will guide your first steps.
Because this app uses the database of the Mech Factory (https://battletech.rpg.hu), it requires internet access to download larger texts or pictures. After you downloaded a design, it will remain on your device, and it will be accessible offline. To enable content downloading you have to register your free account on the Mech Factory (if you don't have it already). With a valid Mech Factory user name you can use both the web page and the mobile app.
NOTE: Registration is needed to use all the features. That policy we cannot change - it is mostly due security reasons. Read our privacy policy about that, if you are worried about your data. If you have technical problems with registration, please send us your report.
(As a quick fix, please try to uninstall/install, and then register. It might help. Be sure that you are online during the registration process.)
