    hvMechWarrior-v12 was the first release of the hvMechWarrior series of mods co-written for Tribes by myself and "hvHelplessTarget". It was created with the intent of bringing the atmosphere and tactics of FASA's Battletech/MechWarrior universe to the game Tribes. hvMechWarrior is not a replacement for any of the MechWarrior PC games, but a new style of combat for Tribes that requires more strategic thought than "Base" without cheesy super-weapons that plague other mods.
    Disclaimer: It is my intention, as co-author of the hvMechWarrior mod, not to interfere with any of the Mechwarrior products produced by Activision, FASA or Microprose, but, rather to give their eforts a new market through Tribes, It is my hope that the hvMechWarrior mod will bring a new combat experience to player of Tribes and that this experience will increase interest in the Mechwarrior series PC games as well as the Battletech RPG.

FYI for new hvMechWarrior players:
- You can download my hvMechWarrior skins HERE, to enhance your playing enjoyment.
- Mechs are large robots controlled by pilots located within the Mech's cockpit. Mechs are tougher than the "armors" found in "Base", and take more punishment to defeat.
- The blue "energy bar" now represents your Coolant Level. The more blue displayed, the cooler your Mech. If your Mech overheats, you will be unable to fire most weapons or Jump Jet until your Heat Sinks cool off your Mech.
- Nearly all weapons generate heat, as does Jump Jetting, which will alter one's tactical decisions. It is best to keep closer to the ground, "hopping" rather than "leaping" over enemy fire.
- Jump Jets generate more vertical than horizontal thrust, making it easier to scale high obstacles.
- Jump Jet Boosters exist on all Mech types and will thrust one's Mech upward (if standing still), or horizontally (if moving) simply by pressing one's "Beacon" button (usually "B").

    hvMechWarrior-v12 is no longer available for download, due to the existence of the newer and far better hvMechWarrior-v14.
