BattleTech Essentials

Beginner Box

Strap into your BattleMech's cockpit and charge into the most important fight of your life! Soldiers from across the Inner Sphere are drawn to the Game World of Solaris VII, where they seek glory, fame, and fortune in live-fire arena combat, before rotating back to their empires' fields of battle. Yet only the best and most aggressive gladiators will succeed. Will you claw your way to the top of the leaderboards and be immortalized for all time, or will you go down in flames to the sound of thunderous applause.

The BattleTech: Essentials is a physical game box containing the necessary pieces, papers, and material to serve as an introduction to the tabletop version of BattleTech. Compared to the original and second Edition BattleTech Beginner Boxes, BattleTech: Essentials is more specifically focused on the Solaris Games dueling arenas. It was accompanied by a promotional video voiced by fan-favorite Duncan Fisher.
