​Welcome back to another episode of Acceptable Losses! Today, we are diving into the terrifying, unexplained, and straight-up supernatural side of BattleTech with our host PancreasNoWork to swap some of the most chilling war stories traded in the deep black of space.

​In this episode, we cover:

How a religious splinter faction unleashed a bioengineered version of Mad Cow Disease on the planet Necromo, causing all higher brain functions to cease and turning the infected into flesh-craving monsters.

The terrifying reality of Jump Psychosis, misjumps that can suspend a ship in time for over two centuries, and horrific legends of vessels being destroyed in hyperspace by giant void squids.

The legends of "Lucky Number 7," a cursed piece of garbage Charger that violently faceplanted and killed its pilot, a haunted 13th Zeus that seemingly caused its pilot to hold vivid conversations with his dead sister, and Great Gaffa's Ghost—a green Star League Highlander that miraculously appears out of nowhere to save doomed MechWarriors.

And the ultimate cosmic horror of BattleTech, The Dark One, a pristine, jet-black Marauder with no serial number. Is it just a machine piloted by a psychopath, or is it an extradimensional being bleeding into our reality, eating souls and punishing mankind for breaking the rules of physics?
