Chicagoland June Battletech: Alpha Strike game
« on: 05 June 2019, 09:29:32 »
While a lot of our Chicago area Agents will be off at Origins, I will not so I'm going to be running the monthly game for June... This time we're going to be doing an Alpha Strike game!

Where:  Games Plus in Mt. Prospect
101 W. Prospect Ave.
Mt. Prospect, IL 60056
Phone: 847-577-9656
http://games-plus.com/

When: June 15th, starting at 11AM.  Lunch break will be determined by mutual discussion of the players.

In the early days of the First Succession War,  the Draconis Combine struck deeply into Federated Suns territory attempting to capture the Suns' capitol of New Avalon.  One of the planets in the path of the invasion forces was the world of Alnadal.  Other than the fact of being a marginally habitable world, Alnadal was relatively unremarkable except for a few mining outposts including a small germanium mine and processing facility. This was enough for the Coordinator to dispatch elements of the Third Sword of Light  to drive off or destroy any Davion forces on the world.

This game will be played using the BattleTech Alpha Strike rules set.  While previous experience with the Alpha Strike system is helpful,  it is not required.
All materials will be provided.

A big thank you to everyone for coming out to the game yesterday!

Watch for the July game announcement sometime after GWA gets back from Origins this weekend.
