Well, the conversion rate is 1 Hex = 2 Inches for movement... though I have to go dig my rulebook for ranges. In general, you can use free-form or maps for your terrain. My group tends to use freeform due to its abundance.

I've played Alpha Strike and it's damn worth it. You can use the minis that come with the base game if you so choose. All you really need is to go to this website (Alpha Strike Force Builder - Master Unit List) to build your force to generate the unit cards. Once you're done with your force, you...

... and that is why I shouldn't post so quickly after work... reading comprehension gets borked. Spite would be the wrong word, it would be more akin to humiliation or something along those lines. Given that a Warwolf Prime has a 4-4-4 on Alpha Strike for damage... it wouldn't be that bad.

It's a cute, dinky thing, ain't it? At least as usable spite 'mechs are.

I'll have to ask my brother for the link. Ah, damn it, auto corrupt strikes again. It was Aries, not Anvil.

There's a group of guys in Germany that make 3D printed 'mechs who call themselves Mech Lab (at least, that's from what I remember). They take months to show up and tend to get damaged. They're damn impressive sculpts though. My brother found them when he was searching for better 'mech...

Funny thing, a good portion of my 'mech company is made up of 'mechs from Mech Lab. Too bad that the mail services tend to get them damaged though... or send them to fucking Morocco (or so I remember).

Hm, interesting... so far I haven't found anything about the incompatibility but I could check on the BT discord later.

@Bear Ribs, the thing is, what Catalyst has been doing is literally going through the mess that was the entirety of Battletech and making a 'canon' of rules out of it... then splitting them off into 'basic' and various flavors of advanced rules. There is an old Robotech v Battletech comic where...

It has a lot of fighters and small craft backed by several batteries of sub-capital lasers and AR-10 missile racks? Rebout System Defense Monitor Type: Military Spheriod Mass: 100,000 tons Use: System Defense and Fleet Escort Technology Base: Mixed (Experimental) Introduced: 3145 Mass: 100,000...

It is for the cheaper plastics, I believe, and I need paint thinner too because that is the only way to not have my brushes outright murdered.

Ladies and gents, a portion of my Alpha Strike Late Civil War/Jihad era 'merc company. The Werewolf 005 is a Solaris Jock that got sick and tired of being a Solaris pilot and decided to make it as a merc, taking his Werewolf with him. I really only need to prime my infantry and wait for two...

There is the old 'ballistics get a 9x range modifier' rule you could use... but that goes into 'you need shuffleboard sticks to so anything' territory at the end of the day.

Eh, people keep forgetting that BT is the '80s future, not the 2000s, 2010s, or even the '90s future. Everything is clunky instead of sleek, things won't get improved much, yadda, yadda, yadda.

People forget that the purpose of recon includes... well... poking the enemy. Atlases make poking the enemy a far less deadly problem for the lance in question.
