In the 28th episode of the Mercenary Star Podcast, I am joined by my fellow members of an elite group of BattleTech contributors, The Silver Fox Fauxhawks! Shady origins aside, this group of silver haired & fauxhawk rocking gentlemen help me talk about BattleTech in 2025, our thoughts on products, fiction, events, achievements, collaborations, and what we are excited for in 2026!(**Apologies for my throat clearing up front; I've been sick and I thought I was muting myself, but was pressing the wrong button! I fix it half way through**)Find all of the Silver Fox Fauxhawks in the WolfNet & Valhalla Club discords!
