I like those robots better.... But I do want to try this eventually.

I think there is a battletech game. The votes were more for Marvel though, so I plan to put more of the focus there for a while.

When I am a guest at a convention I am there to entertain people and add to the fun they have at the event. thus, unless the game session is advertised as one where the objective is to kill the PCs--and I've done a few of those--I try to keep PCs alive. Of course if a player doesn't want to have his character survive, the natural selection process of the game environment will take over.
