Game:House Liao: The Capellan Confederation: Battletech

One of FASA Corporation's most successful ongoing series was its science fiction universe Battletech. Initially based on a strategy board game, the franchise grew to include video games, role-playing games, a collectible card game, a comic book group, and a television series, among other examples. Most of these examples focus on the same fictional future universe based on extensive written documentation and ongoing fan support. Wizkids acquired the franchise in 2000, and then Topps purchased it in 2003. FASA created role-playing games under the Battletech and MechWarrior names, in many different editions, during the 1980s.
