A great classic which is just as good as the day it came out. The new miniatures and format only enhance the experience.

Great quality minis with excellent detail. I've purchased the Battletech beginner box, a game of armoured combat, the clan invasion expansion and an inner sphere command lance. In all 4 purchases I've only had 2 models that were slightly bent out of shape (which was easily fixed by putting them in hot water) but the overall quality is fantastic. As far as table-top wargames go this one is far more affordable than most and the core set comes with everything you need to get you into the hobby. I would recommend the beginner box as an introduction for new players who may not know somebody that can teach them the rules, but A Game of Armoured Combat is the perfect follow-up to get you playing full games of battletech with some mates.

This is an amazing simulation of mech combat, being a very in depth game of numbers and resource management, rather than a pick up and play board game. This is also an exceptional starter set, containing everything needed to get into the game and the universe. Comes with 8 incredible mech miniatures, detailed rules, a universe primer pamphlet and a short novella. Great value for money (especially at Zatu's price!).

It’s hard to improve on perfection - The new Battletech box set boasts by far the best models yet from Catalyst - overall the rules remain unchanged with presentation and clarification being the main improvemts - certainly having had an abcence Of BT for some time now on my table , I felt the curve to playing much easier to take on board .paper map over card this time and a decent set of card terrain components. The card standie mechs mean more mechs on the table quicker and the addition of the alpha stikebcards was nice (free rules on line) So yeah over all very happy with this one.
