BattleTech: Beginner Box

Players each command a single giant walking war machine and fight until one mech is destroyed or scenario objectives are met. The box provides two preassembled miniatures, a double-sided map, tokens and cards, quick-start rules that simplify core systems (no heat, criticals, or inner-structure tracking), record sheets and dice, and a short setting booklet and novella. Gameplay focuses on movement, range and line-of-sight firing, and managing weapon arcs and damage until a victor emerges.
