Kind of a long shot, certainly, but it's better than the bidding wars over on Ebay.
Essentially, I'm looking for cards from the mid-to-late-'90s CCG based on the Battletech universe, and I'm open to all expansions. I'd prefer booster packs, starter decks, and of course boxes of either, but I'm also willing to bargain for opened assortments and loose cards, as well.
PM me or post what you have here!

Oddly enough, I have a few of these. I'll have to look around.

They really aren't worth much of anything--a couple of 2,000-card sets are going for about $40 on Ebay right now. The cards were printed by the truckloads, and the game just never caught on after the initial buying bonanza. Even the rarest aren't comparable to rares from, say, Magic.
I'm just an incredible skinflint looking to score some cards for fun rather than collecting. ;)

I remember playing this game, it was pretty decent If i remember right. Unlike most other games released in the crad craze era.

You got that right. There was an actual bit of strategery and tictactical thinking, what with having to defend several locations, form patrols, and BUILD your units, all with a limit as to how many resources you could deploy each turn.
