Description

No Guts! No Galaxy!

It is the thirty-first century. For generations, the Great Houses of the Inner Sphere have been at war, squabbling over the scraps of the long-dead Star League. Centuries of fighting have led to the formation of countless mercenary commands willing to take on the tough missions that the Successor States can't - or won't - take on themselves.

These mercenary commands live and die by two things: the almighty C-bill, and their reputation among their employers that they have what it takes to get the job done.

Encounters: BattleTech is a 1-8 player, fast-paced, push-your-luck dice and card game. Players act as mercenary commanders taking on contractors for the Great Houses. Defeating the enemies sent to stop them earns C-bills to spend on the equipment needed to keep their unit afloat. If they defeat enough enemies, they'll complete their contract and gain the hard-earned reputation that all mercenaries seek. So grab some dice, pick your favorite mercenary unit, and show the Great Houses that you're the best mercs in the Inner Sphere!
