I'm planning on mashing Eclipse Phase and Battletech together

You seriously need to rework your mechs, because EP's powerlevel is pretty insane.

I mean, you can just deck out an EP combat character, and that character will pretty much count as a whole squad of Elementals taking out mech squadrons like it's nothing.

On-foot characters aren't going to be fighting mechs. It'll be EP rules inside the city, where everything is on foot, and BTech rules outside of the city where it's Mech combat.

Have you decided what sort of technology goes into a 'mech? The computing baseline of EP is much higher than a Cold War military jet + fancy helmet and if your players are like my players they are going to want to trick out their rides. They might be more reasonable than my " Our unit standardized camouflage pattern is a lethal basilisk hack" players but you'd best plan ahead

Hrmn, I guess OP was too vague.

I don't intend to use the EP setting, I just like the character creation and systems. The actual game wouldn't be so high tech. No nano fabs or the like.

If BT has Elemental infantry soldiers cutting mechs apart, you bet EP combat forms can do the same.

Your players are awesome and I'm so stealing this.
