HeavyMetal Map  Now Shipping!

 

 

 

 

The latest in the HeavyMetal series is a great departure from the other HeavyMetal programs. This is the first program specializing in graphics, with a complete graphic interface. Its specialty is producing hex-based maps for playing BattleTech. You'll find most of the official, published maps included, and other custom designs as well. But the most important thing is that you can modify any existing map, or make new ones from scratch, to suit your game play. Roads and other paths are beautifully detailed, yet easy to draw, and Add-On graphics allow you to place DropShips and other graphics over the rest of the map. You'll definitely want to take a look at the HeavyMetal Map Features Page, and maybe even download a full copy of the 91 page User's Guide in PDF format. If you've ever thought about making your own maps, your time has come!

Program Similarity

In order to make the programs easier to use, you will find that all of the programs work similarly, except for HeavyMetal Map, which is a completely different style of program.

HeavyMetal Battle Armor

 

 

 

 

HeavyMetal Battle Armor includes many anxiously awaited features. Designing battle armor and power suits to both BattleTech and BattleTech RPG (aka MechWarrior) rules, HMBA includes all the features you've come to expect from HeavyMetal programs plus much more: Print Preview, Configuration (Omni-style) design handling and printing, RPG Attribute modifications and more. And all the published designs are included, even the battle armor and applicable equipment from the new, yet-unpublished BattleTech Combat Equipment book. Take a look at all the features and screenshots at the link above. We think you will be impressed!

HeavyMetal Pro

 

 

 

 

The first in the HeavyMetal series is also the workhorse: BattleMechs (or 'Mechs, as they are known) are the meat and potatoes of HeavyMetal Pro. Whatever the type, from Biped and Quad 'Mechs, to LAMs (Land Air 'Mechs) and OmniMechs, HMPro provides all the tools you'll need to make custom designs, as well as load standard ones, and print out professional-looking record sheets (FanPro uses HeavyMetal software to print its latest record sheet books) and a wealth of other printouts and reports.

HeavyMetal Vee

 

 

 

 

The Official Vehicle Design Program. HeavyMetal Vee helps you design all types of vehicles, including wheeled and tracked, hovercraft, VTOL, hydrofoil, submarine, surface ship, even tractors and trailers.

HeavyMetal Lite

 

 

 

 

 

The Official ProtoMech Design Program. HeavyMetal Lite also assists in selecting, modifying and printing record sheets for Battle Armor and Infantry.

HeavyMetal Plus

Save 16% over the price of the separate programs!
