BattleTech Alpha Strike

I played Battletech a few years ago and the paperwork put me off getting into it but came across this quick play version "Alpha Strike " , all the info you need for your Mechs are on pre printed cards and the rules are cut back to a minimum and best of all you vcvan play large numbers of mechs ,not had chance to play yet but it looks like it could be an ideal afternoon or evening game . The box set comes with the 40 page rule book , a 16page Primer covering the different forces and brief background of the universe and a24page Novella . It comes with 13 Mechs ,51 cards a card reference sheet card stock trees and counters plus 15 card buildings , also included are 2 dice which seems abit of acheat has each player needs 2 dice . Some Pics of the contents below and hopefully get agame or 2 in in acouple´of weeks .
