There is certainly a good deal of news to report. First of all I'd like to thank everyone that has contacted us regarding their support for our mod. Considering that we haven't done any official advertising, we have seen our guest numbers increase and many of you have already joined our Newsletter! Our first official Newsletter won't be sent out until we have something really awesome to show the community. I plan not to inundate people with boring ass Newsletters and cluttering your Inbox with spam!

Anyways, first up, and most importantly. You will notice some changes made concerning the requirements of our mod. We might be making history here folks as being the first PC Game modification to require not one game to be installed but two! Transformers Crank Shaft will require installation of both Transformers The Game and Crysis.

Secondly, we would like to proudly thank our sponsor MekTek.net for announcing their support for our modification to the Mechwarrior community at large. We are very happy to have MekTek.net as a sponsor for this modification. Thanks to the crew at MekTek!
