Should Wizkids resurrect House Marik for the Wizkids Mechwarrior universe?
What do you think? It could just me my Classic Battletech sympathies, but I really want to see Wizkids bring back House Marik to the list of factions. Of course, I’m a bit of a purist. I still hate the Clans, to some extent. My first experience with Battletech came in sixth grade when everyone played it at lunch. We all took on one Mechwarrior faction or another, and kept track of our conquests. So for years, Battletech to me meant the Inner Sphere. Still though, the Clans did help keep the Battletech storyline moving forward, I suppose.
There have to still be some House Marik fans around, one imagines. Wouldn’t Wizkids be better off giving them their House back? Introducing House Marik into the Mechwarrior: Age of Destruction period would seem to be smart not only for keeping Marik fans happy, but it would also allow them to roll it out in tournament form. They could make the introduction of a major new faction into Mechwarrior be the big event of 2008, with an action pack, several mechs in a standard expansion, and Marik limited edition mechs as tournament and Mechwarrior convention prizes.
Makes sense when you think about it, aff?
