While MechCommander 2 is a real-time strategy game, it often feels a little more like a role-playing game. That's because your ultimate success will depend on the experience and equipment you gain from mission to mission. In true BattleTech style, the game is all about improving your forces with new technology, equipping them with the right mix of weapons, and continuing to improve the skills of your pilots. It's this sense of accumulation and improvement that drives the single-player game forward, and it's also the main obstacle to the game's replay value.
