Catalyst Game Labs Alpha Strike Box Set

Product Information

The Dark Age period represents a jump forward in time of some five decades from the end of the Word of Blake Jihad in 3081. The following documents can be used to catch up on the events, personalities and changes of the new setting. Touring the Stars Alongside the new Alpha Strike boxed set, we’re excited to announce the return of companion sourcebooks for each BattleTech faction, detailing the combat commands, force building, unique battlefield abilities for each. Formerly known as Combat Manuals, this rebooted line of sourcebooks is fully compatible with Total Warfare or Alpha Strike play. Revamped versions of the Kurita and Mercenaries sourcebooks will join the all-new Force Manual: Davion in relaunching the line. Certain reports suggest that the plastics used for basic 24 'Mechs in this set may differ from that used in the previous edition, that is the Classic BattleTech Introductory Box Set, but the sculpts appear unchanged. At present, there is not a way known to distinguish a miniature originating from the Classic BattleTech Introductory Box Set in 2007 and one originating from the 25th Anniversary Introductory Box Set in 2011 or 2012. Both the 25th Anniversary Introductory Box Set and the BattleTech Introductory Box Set included two premium plastic miniatures of a different style and arrangement from the base 24 miniatures included in each. The 25th Anniversary Introductory Box Set included two Clan 'Mechs: a Summoner (Thor) and a Hellbringer (Loki). The BattleTech Introductory Box Set included a Timber Wolf (Mad Cat) and a BattleMaster BLR-4S from Project Phoenix. These miniatures came unassembled with parts still attached to sprues.

Recognition Guide, vol. 1: Classics collects some of the best-known Inner Sphere, Clan and ComStar BattleMechs, rebuilt with the latest technology to keep them competitive on modern battlefields. This volume is the companion to Recognition Guide, vol. 2: ilClan, and contains material originally published in the bestselling PDF-only BattleTech Recognition Guide: ilClan series.Kincaid is a man of reputation in the Dragoons. His word carries weight. And he hasn’t been tarnished by Terra. Three regiments and one of his irreplaceable striker battalions have been ground to dust. His people are mourning, defeated, and rudderless. They look to him for leadership, for answers. They need a purpose. The third edition of the boxed set, released by FASA in 1992, replaced the paper cutout playing pieces with plastic miniatures. One was provided for each of the fourteen standard 'Mechs from the second edition. The new edition also contained a booklet with prefilled record sheets for these fourteen 'Mechs. The Merlin and Chameleon made no appearance. An in-universe look at the major factions, their histories and their status quo as of 3130. Republic of the Sphere Before we get too far into this, I want to thank Catalyst Game Labs for sending over a copy of this box for us to review.

Two thousand light years from Terra, two brothers leave behind the shattered dreams of their father, the great General Aleksandr Kerensky. For a second time, war drives them into the dark and cold of the void, as the raging conflict engulfs the Pentagon Worlds and the nascent Star League-in-Exile.

Then, in 3132, hyperpulse generators across thousands of worlds went offline, enveloping the Inner Sphere in silence. Paranoia and opportunism ran rampant as age-old hostilities reignited and chaos ruled the day. The Republic, the grand experiment in hope, was torn asunder by hostile forces on every side. Representing the Inner Sphere on the eve of the Second Succession War, this map is the best way to start your path to becoming the First Lord as war once more consumes the Inner Sphere. Released in 2020 after a successful crowdfunding campaign, this box set served as an expansion to BattleTech: A Game of Armored Combat. The box provides lore, rules, and components for introducing Clan warfare into BattleTech gameplay.
