MechWarrior Tactics Founder’s Program Announced

A Kickstarter-like “founder’s program” for MechWarrior Tactics has been announced by Roadhouse Interactive and Infinite Game Publishing, including closed beta access and various in-game goodies as rewards. The program should help fund the continued development of the game, but given that there’s no visible funding goal, also acts as a sort of pre-order bonuses campaign.

Here’s a snip from the announcement:

True BattleTech game play is back and bigger than ever in 2013 as the highly anticipated online strategy title MechWarrior Tactics launched its Founder’s Program today (www.mwtactics.com/founders).
