BTTT: BattleTech TableTop v0.9.7: PC game with multiplayer and bots
A new version of BTTT: BattleTech TableTop has been released! For those unfamiliar, this is my fan project to recreate tabletop play in a network PC game. You can play online, LAN, local hotseat, or against AI opponents.

Behold! A Warhammer!
I prefer BTTT, it's a lot more snappy, and had a better visual style. MegaMek is great if you want it ALL, BTTT is great if you just wanna have a fight.

BTTT: BattleTech TableTop v0.9.5: Bug fixes and QOL improvements!
Oh that's a good idea! Unfortunately that's not really possible in this version. All map hexes use this grey texture which is colored by terrain height in the code.

BTTT v0.9.1: Bug fixes and better graphics.
Here is BTTT: BattleTech TableTop v0.9.1, my fan project to recreate the tabletop experience in a network PC game. BTTT focuses on a streamlined implementation of just the core rules that my friends and I actually play rather than attempting to support every possible BattleTech feature like MegaMek. It also animates movements and combat, though it is nowhere near as pretty as HBS BattleTech.

Yep, the game and its engine are both open source.

BTTT: BattleTech TableTop v0.9.4: Bug fixes and better AI.
Will there be a mobile/tablet port? Maybe someday, but no promises. I play games on PC and use a Blackberry Classic. BTTT and RaptorEngine are both open source C++, so you are welcome to try porting it. You would probably need to ditch my SDL 1.2 bindings for SDL2, rework a few older GL calls that are not available in OpenGLES, and replace keyboard controls with touch.

Error trying to get started with SDL on Linux: undefined symbol: SDL_RWread
Someone else may have a better answer about the easiest way to draw text. In my game engine, I use SDL_ttf (1.2) to write characters into OpenGL textures when initializing a font, then to draw text I use those textures on rectangles: https://github.com/Raptor007/RaptorEngine/blob/master/UI/Font.cpp
