What color blue is that

Yes mechwarrior 3 was the one with 2 fire flies. It starts off with a firefly being chased and shot down with a madcat and a thor. The flea is the MechWarrior 4 flea.

Conversions are always so nice to see in BT!

Excellent work as always. I particularly like the beefed up cannon in the arm, makes it look like an AC/10 rather than a 5.

Clan burrock was absorbed by clan star adder before the clan invasion

Thank you all for taking the time to review this. I hope when you get the KS you are happy with the product and do more reviews. We love to hear honest feedback and are always looking at making things better for our clients and their supporters. Note models can always have more details they would just require to have less models in a tool. -- Chris

Love seeing the detailed breakdown of what's in the box. Down here in Australia we have no idea when they're even going to start shipping our pledges. 😢 The turn-table close up of the miniatures is great, but it'd be even better if you had the name of the mech/vehicle on screen at the same time - not everyone recognises unit at a glance 😉

Can't wait to add those to my dark grey plastic pile of shame!

Who's kidney? Was it Thom? Poor Thom, I feel bad for him.

As a stand alone box it is missing some key essentials, as an expansion it is fantastic and adds several new elements to the game. The box should have expansion added to its title.

I find it weird that there are tanks with cargo space included in the box, but no infantry minis to be transported by them.

I actually got my stuff a month ago. Really love the updated mechanics, really liked the box.

Wasn’t the Dark Wing the antagonist’s from the original Mechwarrior computer game or am I mis-remembering the name?

We actually encountered the Thermo Police in a Mechwarrior RPG game set in the Outworlds Alliance and as a result I painted up a lance of them from the Clan KS set.

That Battletech Merc contract is the second coolest contract i have ever seen. #1 is of course the "E-Girl domesticaton contract"

Sucks you haven't gotten your KS yet but for me at least it's a cold comfort that I'm not the only one.

I'm a little salty on the KS. No word on mine and I have over a grand in it. Hammer's Slammers is freaking amazing. Aaron, you need to read.

26:25 I don't think the box needs rules - it's listed as an expansion so you need either AGOAC or AS and then you can pick up either the Clan Invasion Box or this to expand your game. In terms of value it's two force packs and two salvage boxes + the Merc rules and Battlefield support rules and cards. As a value proposition it's decent before you add in the novella, map sheet, punchboard etc.

Solidarity with those fellow players patiently still waiting for their KS. AFAIK no one outside the US has had anything delivered yet.

Sarna lists the Thermo Police as an Outworlds Alliance merc unit doing mostly pirate hunting. They look like an excuse to paint your mechs up like a crown vic. The real question for me though, is: does the Dark Wing use the slogan "When there's trouble you call DW"?

I still think 4 Mechs and 12 Vehicles would have made more sense. Then when added to the AGoAC or Alpha Strike boxes you'd get a full Company of 12 Mechs and a full Company of 12 Vehicles.

I need it…. Please release in Asia!

My Kickstarter just arrived last week it seems they are getting along slowly. Such a disappointing shipping process.

My Kickstarter arrived last week. Everything was included. My salvage mechs were statistically unlikely but acceptable. My salvage vehicles were more useful. The one thing I was disappointed in was that they only created rules for the Battlefield Support Assets (vehicles) that they have recreated in plastic, and not all of the TRO 3025 & 3026 other classic vehicles that every Great House uses. This annoys me because I have IWM metals that I bought a few years ago to flesh out my houses before the plastic re-release (2x Galleons, 2x Packrats, 2x Strikers) [with no rules for the Packrats or Strikers]. Since one of my salvage vehicles was also a Galleon, I now have (more than I need...) 5x Galleons... and no rules to play the Packrats or the Strikers as Assets. 🙄

Loved the review and don’t worry lads your in the American half of the fulfilment group, there in the process of sending em out to you just extra slowly. Could be over here in the UK where were “expecting” October to be the actual start of them shipping, tho many of us are putting up bets of if we’ll receive them before the New Year

I have to wait for retail, but hot damn I like this box.

I haven't even got an address confirmation email yet

Hammer’s slammers is a great book. Buch of short stories of hover tank mercenaries off on mercenary adventures.

The wins for me are the Starslayer and Firefly! That MW3 cinematic gave me the love for the Firefly.

law suit are on the way. against catalyst games labs.

Thermo Police are a psuedo police force out in the Outworlds Badlands, they have a Spotlight On Product. They're nifty.

Ost series came from Robotech Zentradi battle pods if I remember correctly

Got my pledge last week. Got a Battalion pledge with some extra add-ons. All arrived in great condition and accurate to my order. Have faith fellow mechwarrior, you'll get yours soon. Also, those cardboard cutouts do serve a purpose to gameplay. The rules state that multiple assets may occupy one hex, the cutouts are meant to be placed under the miniature asset to signify two assets taking up one hex.

23:13 my take is that a tank is just better than a battlemech - in an environment a tank can operate But a mech can operate in low gravity worlds, or high gravity worlds A mech can operate in swamps, or river deltas A mech can operate in the rubble strewn streets of a city A mech can help load or unload a dropship in an emergency The tanks that they can produce in post helm-core innersphere can be far superior to mechs - in situations where their innate disadvantages don't rear their heads.

I am in the middle of building a battalion; I go by unit lore and color scheme both. 1st St Ives Lancers for me.

I got an address confirmation email two weeks ago, still waiting on shipping confirmation. It's extremely frustrating how long this is taking.

I'm still waiting for my pack as well..... :(

Nice contents in that box, I look forward to it hitting the shelves someday. 2 thumbs up for the "Hammer's Slammers" reference - great series of stories, highly recommended. I have to disagree about the dice - they work well for me!

Man, I really hope your stuff shows up soon! I was so disheartened to read your update on Patreon, it's gotta be super frustrating.

Hahaha, "You ordered it from Capellan space". That was good.

I've been looking for a good review of this box! In the 2 months since I started my journey in Battletech, I've purchased several things, and this looks like an amazing addition to the collection! Thanks for getting a copy to review!

Great video . Thanks. Just got my KS on Monday. WARNING! Don't count on keeping any of the boxes. I really wanted to keep my boxes of the Bounty Hunter and the Somerset Strikers but both are bent. I may still try to display them somehow so that the bent parts aren't visible. Support cards-I don't understand a need for vehicle support cards. If you understand mechs then Vs are almost the same but with restrictions and different charts. Now having support cards for emplacements, artillery, mines, aircraft attacks,infantry, all those things that are either not in TW or an easy way to use some that are I can see a use for. Seeing this made me look up your own video for the Battlefield Support deck. Speaking of which-you guys should link that video in the description under this video! Ostsol's my favorite in the box because this finally replaces the Unseen with plastics. Also-I pulled 4 Behemoths in my Battlefield Support Salvage boxes. 😐 I'm with Aaron about 100 ton tanks. Shreck, Demolisher, Partisan are as big as they need to be for my uses.

Oh that's cute. You guys haven't got your stuff yet either? I won't go into my thoughts on CGL at the moment. It seems to me that you guys shoulda been near the top to get stuff due to your standing in the community. It really irks me that you had to pay a scalper to be able to do a review.

I got my KS last week and played my first game at the weekend. One of my add ons was the neoprene hex map with no terrain, and I have been building and buying hex terrain in anticipation. Oh my does it make playing AGOAC so much simpler and more direct. The other stuff, mostly really good looking mechs and vehicles. Im really looking forward to trying some combined arms games and appreciate getting the choice to use simpler vehicle rules. Also while I don't use cardboard cut outs normally, the infantry unit tokens will probably see some use. I also think it should have included full rules, but checked and the clan invasion rulebook also only includes rules for the new equipment, so I guess these two boxes have to be seen as strictly expansions.

Was waiting for a review from you guys! Ok, I'm curious about new assets rules, if it works similar to video games - cool! Anything speeding up the game is welcome. The only mechs I like here are the Quickdraw and Starslayer (it was a thing in Mechcommander 2), others are meh. Maybe the Ceasar, but it's weird. Tanks are fine, but instead of half the mechs they could've included just more heavier vehicles. Firefly, Flea, who would ever run these.

Cool my boxes are in transit till kickstart get there boxes on a month now August 6th

I guess UK, Europe and RoW will some time off getting their KS but at least that gives me a bit more time to paint my mech mountain. Thats the only positive thing i can say. Thanks for a great review guys.

We need to launch an operation to hijack the truck that is secretly carrying our Kickstart boxes to Fort Knox. I'm calling the movie "Now It's Personal". Rumor is that Vin Diesel is attached to play role of Aaron Clay.

My kickstarter just arrived last week. Have faith, Kerensky shall deliver!

Excellent unboxing video, even if you had to jump through hoops to get it done. We the fans appreciate the work that went into it.
