Tabletop Game - BattleTech: Alpha Strike

"BattleTech: Alpha Strike" – is a fast-paced military tactical tabletop game set in the BattleTech universe. Neo-feudalism and continuous warfare have become the norm, and the pinnacle of human technology is the combat mech weighing up to 100 tons, armed and armored. Elite mech warriors, warriors of the chosen clans and powerful houses, control these titans. Infantry, vehicles, and aerospace fighters also participate in battles, but it is the combat mech that breathes life into every battle and is regarded as the undisputed king of the battlefield.

How to play?
In the game "Alpha Strike," each turn is divided into several phases:

1. Initiative Phase
At the beginning of each turn, each player rolls two six-sided dice (2D6) and adds the results to determine their initiative value. The player with the highest value is considered the winner of the initiative.

2. Movement Phase
Time for strategic maneuvers! In the movement phase, the player with the lowest initiative value moves one of their combat units. If the number of units on both sides is equal, then the player with the highest initiative moves one of their combat units. Movement alternates until all units have been moved.

3. Combat Phase
Now that all combat units have taken the most advantageous positions, the most exciting part begins! In the combat phase, the player with the lowest initiative value commands their units. Shots are fired and blows are dealt, shaking the air with metallic lightning! Each combat unit can make one attack, immediately dealing damage, but its effects take place only in the concluding phase of the turn, allowing even destroyed units to strike back.

4. Conclusion Phase
End of the turn, where the results of the skirmish are summarized and preparation for the next surge begins!

Who won?
In the world of BattleTech, victory often depends on which rules are chosen for the battle. In scenario fights, the winner is determined by the scenario. If no scenario is chosen, victory goes to the one who destroys all opponents. Prepare your mechs for battle, because in this world, every turn can be a decisive step towards victory!
