Description
BattleTech is a science-fiction tactical wargame where players battle each other with giant fighting robots called BattleMechs. The game is designed for 2 to 4 players and has a normal level of complexity, making it easy for board game enthusiasts to learn. With a wide range of Mechs to choose from, each with its own mobility and firepower, players can create their own custom Mechs or use pre-designed ones. The game is typically played on a hex map, with optional rules for hexless play, and features a range of unit types, including vehicles, infantry, and aircraft. The game has been around since 1985 and has a dedicated community, with numerous expansions and rulebooks available, including introductory box sets and technical readouts that provide gameplay and background data on Mechs and other units.
