1990 BattleTechnology Magazine Advertisement

This B&W ad for the BattleTechnology magazine (find at Amazon.com*) comes from the second issue of Far & Away, a sci-fi roleplaying/boardgaming magazine from the nineties that lasted — as near as I can determine — only two issues. Published by Pacific Rim, the same company that produced BattleTechnology, the magazine covered Shadowrun, BattleTech, Traveller: 2300, Robotech, Star Trek, and a handful of other sci-fi RPGs of the time.

This advertisement isn’t nearly as exciting as some others, but it was still enough to spark my imagination back when I was a kid and playing BattleTech with my friends.
