"Exosquad" Retro Series Talkback (Spoilers)

[thisithis]

Well, the Proof of the Battletech creator was massively misinformed when it came to Exosquad just landed on YouTube 4 days ago. Basically, Michael Stackpole one of the creators of Battletech gives no mention of the Robert A. Heinlein novel Starship Troopers for being the inspiration of well a crap ton of other sci-fi genres out there. We're talking Iron Man, Gundam, James Cameron's Aliens film, Exosquad itself, and many more. And not forgetting Exosquad was giving off a more anti-war kind of vibe. But here is the video, just go to 26:08 on the video to see Michael Stackpole say Playmates made Exosquad as a Battletech ripoff which is just not true at all.
