I loved the Solaris 7 matches in MW4 & am looking forward to getting the new BT Essentials today & playing some Solaris matches. The Legend Kilker Rifleman & Yen Lo Wang Centurion are the two unique models that come with the new box including rules & maps for Solaris 7, well worth the money.

George Ledoux, the voice actor for Duncan Fisher, was recently on one of the other BT sites for a Q and A. Besides being a great voice actor, he's also funny as hell. My first introduction to Solaris 7, was during the Warrior trilogy by Mike Stackpole. I recommend that series, and the Gray Death Legion novel's ( which GDN does a great job narrating, check it out in his playlist), for people new to the lore.

I agree he's a great voice actor. I could listen to him a daily basis narrating pretty much anything.

George is on the BPL podcast/yt channel a handful of times. George is rather hilarious.

I never made it to Solaris in my Battletech days. While mercing for Steiner I killed some jumped-up, self-important son of a high ranking Marik (I know, calling a Marik "self important" is redundant, but it wasn't my fault, I was going for the disable and his reactor nuked when the idiot fell over) and the price on my head if I ever entered the Not-so-Free Worlds League was too high for me to risk going to Solaris.

I used to play Multiplayer Battletech: Solaris back on AOL in the mid-90s :) Such a fun game. 25 years later, I'm still online friends with a couple of people from my clan. Ollllddd school.

The guy who voiced Duncan has done some more on the web, he enjoyed the character as well

He has some videos on his own youtube channel. Great character, shame he's rather obscure.

I just recently started working on tweaking some rules for a Solaris VII league... so the timing of this video is awesome.

"The new (betting) system has a complex equation putting together the strengths and weaknesses of the 'mech plus the skills of the pilot..." So what you're telling me is, the in-universe Solaris-7 odds-makers and bookees use the same BV2 we players use in tabletop. Fun thought, that.

I would imagine that some of the riots that break out on Solaris are even more intense than many European soccer riots.
