I am so hyped for the prospect of Alpha Strike Aces. You guys just made my 2025 (and my wallet is crying because it knows I’m going to buy all of the sets). Heroes of the Aturi Cluster was my original campaign jam. I can’t wait to see how this turns out
Bought the alpha strike counters to add to my Alpha strike core terrain and counters with mercenaries core(my pledge with all the battlefield support force packs arrived last week) and appart from the largest terrain they all fit assembled inside the boeswith the counters inside the 1 -3 storey 1" square buildings. Which means most is ready to go.
I am a big fan of using the existing maps at 1 hex = 2", 1/2 hex = 1" and half hexes playable, mechs/units can hug terrain. The existing card terrain fits nicely on the maps, buildings often disect hexes, leaving half hexes. 2-4 maps(sometimes overlapped) allow for big 2-4 lance/stars per faction in a mnageable table space.
For years I have been playing tactical skormish games using Hostile Tactics AI eve. used it for the recently released 6 siege. Aces works great for Alpha Strike and it's fantastic you have completed it by adding all roles(and variations) plus support vehicles. I use Formation cards(fan made card decks based on Formation special abilities) are the leader cards basically updated formation special abilities?
Hi, watching this as im new to battletech as of last year. I want to spend money on your models and books, you say in this that you want battletech to be as big as magic, warhammer and D&D and i think this game should be its great, unfortunately there is quite a big problem being able to buy your models outside of America. If i try to buy a $15 model from your website it will cost me $130 in postage+shipping. This is a big blocker for us in the uk and Europe and is a big negative conversation for us as we cannot buy your products! Not trying to be a complainer, not being negative but just putting it out there incase you are unaware, my small gaming group has 90 people who all like battletech and we want to buy more but we arent willing to pay the shipping like this. Ironwind is like 20/30 dollars for shipping Sort this out as a priority and you will get alot more people in the uk and europe into the game
I wonder if there are any retailers closer to you. If it makes you feel any better at all, Americans buying Warhammer are spending way more for their models than UK people, once you do the currency exchange rate.
You can get some things from local game stores etc, but if i want any of the premium mechs, books, anything from barnes an noble etc i am having to pay way over the odds unfortunately. Its a shame because id like to give them more of my money!
I'm going to need an availability date for Aces.
Do we have a date yet?
I think they where looking at 3ed or 4th quarter 2025 if not later. the first half of 2025 is mercenary kick starter stuff.

So we are looking at getting our Kickstarter for Leviathan somewhere around summer of 2025??
