Box art looks amazing, kudos to the artist. I wanna pick up a set for that Catapult alone. It looks like a puppy who just wants head rubbies.

I am loving those miniatures.  I have a previous box set from a few years ago and that is really cool but these sets have some really cool mechs that I just want.  The wolverine, thunderbolt, shadowhawk, and these particular versions of the awesome (a mech I usually do not like the look of but like the general idea of) and catapultI will have to put these on the list to get.

<Mod>Hi guys.

Please start a new topic to discuss theoretical value of shifting timelines for new product. I'm going to consider this off topic at this point, thanks.</Mod>

It's Friday night! How about some previews?

We've told you that the two new box sets, the BattleTech Beginner Box and BattleTech: A Game of Armored Combat, will include punch-out Mechs and terrain.

Here's what they'll look like!

Seeing the front/back punch sheet of standees gives me serious nostalgia for the halcyon when I first cracked open the 2nd edition boxed set.

It's a good feeling.

Any more news on a what’s up with Catalyst event at GenCon? I saw a second big pile of events went up this week, but didn’t see this one yet.

Could we have a kick-out version for those of us with poor piloting skills?

Kicks are more dangerous to the kicker.  Stick with punching. Bonus: You get two attempts.

Yes, but if you damage a counter in the process, you fall to the ground and have a chance of knocking yourself unconscious.
