BattleTech: Historical – Operation Klondike

Players reenact early Clan incursions into known space, commanding Star League-era and Clan forces across tactical maps. Gameplay focuses on squad-level combat with mechs and support units, using ranged attacks, movement, terrain effects, and heat management to resolve engagements. Scenarios present asymmetric objectives and force compositions, while unit stats, weapon ranges, and facing matter for positioning and damage outcomes. Players plan maneuvers, manage resources like heat and ammo, and react to opponent actions across turns to achieve scenario victory conditions.
