Does anyone know a good program for playing classic battle tech online with multiple players. I dont mean a FPS but rather an over the top boardgame approach.
I dont know of any... But it sounds like a pretty good idea. The very first "RPG" that I played was BattleTech. Some guys in junior high invited me to come over and play. I remember the character sheets being complicated, but exciting to look at. It was basically us just fighting each other, but I remember their being so much math involved that I didn't have that great of a time with it....
A game like what you suggest would help take care of much of the computations.
I got back into Battletech at Gencon where I played in some real extended grinds. I had forgotten how much fun the game was and now want to play some more.

You want the current development version as the "stable" version is way out of date.

That has the option for a lot of different table top games.
