BattleTech: Incoming dropships!

 

Hey PI fans,

Unidentified dropships incoming! Are they Friendly? Hostile? You make the call.

Fresh reinforcements make their debut, with the Inner Sphere Heavy Lance taking the field for the embattled Houses, and the Clan Support Star dropping in to support the unrelenting Invaders. New battlefields await, in the form of Map Pack Grasslands. The foundations of the galaxy will be shaken as the Clans close in to their ultimate objective in ilClan. With much sacrifice and loss, the Com Guards halted the Clan’s unstoppable drive toward Terra. Experience the euphoria of victory or the bitter sting of defeat in the climactic Battle of Tukayyid.

Along with the new toys the engineers have brought to the front, the production facilities have increased production; as such the Great Houses can expect Inner Sphere Battle lance, Inner Sphere Fire Lance, Inner Sphere Command Lance, and Inner Sphere Direct Fire Lances as reinforcements, to shore up their crumbling lines. The Clans can also expect Clan Heavy Striker Star, Clan Command Star, Clan Heavy Star, and Clan Elemental Stars as reinforcements to renew their drive toward Terra.

The Inner Sphere calls for aid! Begin your foray into ‘Mech command with the Beginner Box, or seize your destiny as an inheritor of Kerensky with Clan Invasion.

BattleTech: ilClan

 

 

In 2825, ilKhan Nicholas Kerensky, the founder of the Clans, gave his exiled, warrior-led people a dream: the first Clan to return to the Inner Sphere and claim Terra, the cradle of humanity, in honorable combat would claim the title of ilClan—ruler of all the Clans. The ilClan would reestablish the venerable Star League from the ashes of the old, and its Khan would become ilKhan, supreme ruler of all the Clans. Now, 326 years later, the Children of Kerensky have fought their way to Terra with the intent of fulfilling this dream. But will this dream become destiny or nightmare?

Delve into what it means to be the ilClan, and experience the tumultuous Battle of Terra, which will shake the very foundations of the Inner Sphere. Then catch a glimpse of how the Great Houses and other major powers will face the outcome of this far-reaching conflict. Tactical maps, Chaos Campaign tracks, and new ’Mechs that debuted during the Battle of Terra all let you jump right into the cockpit and fight in the culmination of over three centuries of Clan history. Do you have what it takes to conquer the birthplace of humankind, or the courage to defend Terra from its enemies?
