You should already be able to download the illod edition from the Forge Bookshelf. If you aren't, email me, I'll fix it. Buying the game at all entitles you to the updates.
On the Mechaton campaign rules: the core game's battle setup and scoring system is great. It rewards desperate action, last ditch runs and Hail Marys; it creates nailbiters and high-energy finishes. The campaign scoring system is compatible with it at first, but around the third battle, they start to compete instead, and that means that the campaign scoring system overrides the core game's. Unfortunately, the campaign scoring system rewards conservative play and emotional divestment. It just guts the game.
