The Alpha Strike Companion adds new rules and expanded options for BattleTech: Alpha Strike, the miniatures war game. This expansion adds new tactical abilities, special warrior options, design quirks, and unit types. It includes an expanded abstract aerospace system that will enable simulation of conflicts from planet to jump point. The book also incorporates a handy conversion system that allows for translating the stats for any BattleTech unit to its fast-playing Alpha Strike equivalent.
