BattleTech: AlphaStrike AAR - King of the Hill

[sean_68333]

I played a game of BattleTech: Alpha Strike with my friends last night.

We played the King of the Hill scenario from the Alpha Strike Compendium.  Both sides had 3 lances and skill 2 pilots all around.

The mercenary (blue) force got lucky early on dealing heavy damage to the Kurita forces (red).  After battling for several more turns, it became clear that the mercenaries had the upper hand.  After suffering even more loses the remaining Kurita forces withdrew from the field.









I think we all had a good time and I am growing to appreciate these rules even more as I play them more.  This really makes BattleTech playable and easy to introduce to new players.

More pictures and details can be found on my blog.  http://gamingandshooting.blogspot.com/2015/02/battletech-alpha-strike-aar-king-of-hill.html

Bill (one of the other players) has provided a review of the battle from the mercenary's perspective.  It is at the end of the blog post.
