Miniatures ::
Rated PG-13 :: BattleTech: Alpha Strike is a new and fast-playing form of the BattleTech game of futuristic armored combat, and was developed for the modern tabletop miniatures war-gamer. BattleTech: Alpha Strike provides an easy to learn system of rules and simplified mechanics that is well suited as an introduction to the game for new players, as well as a means for veterans to expand the size of their engagements while keeping to a reasonable timeframe. BattleTech: Alpha Strike is played on 3D terrain with miniatures representing a sample of the BattleTechs available to players. This demo event is presented in a grinder format, where each participant is started off in a low level BattleMech as they learn the rules and mechanics. Dying in combat is but only the beginning. When your unit is destroyed, you have the opportunity to respawn in a BattleTech of the next higher level. At the beginning of their first BattleTech: Alpha Strike demo session, each participant will be given a card to track their level progress, and are welcome to leave the game and return at any time; picking back up where they left off. The event organizer will have all materials necessary for play, but participants may use their own dice and tape measurers if so desired.
