BattleTech: Introductory Box Set

A starter set for mech combat that introduces core rules, unit construction, and simplified combined-arms play for vehicles and infantry. The box provides background on the setting and factions, prefilled record sheets, maps, a poster map of the universe, reference and tactics guides, painting advice, and a dozen-plus unpainted plastic miniatures ready for play or customization. Later printings upgrade the mounted maps and add higher-quality minis and an introductory system guide to help bridge new players to the wider rulebooks and supplemental products.
