I’ve recently discovered the wonders of the Battletechnology magazine. Now THAT was what BT was all about. Commenting on the current events of the universe, going in-depth about many events that were only sporadically covered by source-books et al. And all just about official! It is funny, as I was reading the first issues I got my hands on, I would read quite a few stories that were then adapted by FASA in their books. And the ’mechs are just sweet (yes, even the stupid ones).

Well, anyway, to make short of a long story, I have a couple of questions: How do I get my hands on old issues, apart from the official web-site (which I hear only poorly supports purchases)? I now have 7 issues, with four more coming my way within the week. And I can get my hand on all the others EXCEPT: Issues 0102, 0203, 0204 and The Early Years (BTnology 2, 5, 6, and special issue no 2). Any ideas?

Best to find them is to look on Ebay or the Gamer's Union...someone is always selling an issue or two.

If you can make one of the Conventions here in the states, then you can look through the dealer tables and hope to run across an issue...

I was lucky a friend gave me the first 5 issues, and then I was slowly able to get most of the rest. I am still missing couple here and there, but I do have most.

Now if I can get my hands on more issues of Star Date and Star Drive magazines then I will be set...

eBay will definately be your best bet and most are very near cover price. In fact, why not try eBay Germany?

About a year and a half ago, I had absolutely no trouble getting a bunch (had about 6 already) of them from their website, including the official binders for them. not sure if that's still available. As above definately look at ebay.
