Battletech Alpha Strike is a less complex, faster way to play Battletech, the mech on mech skirmish game created by Catalyst Game Labs. We're trying it out on the channel to see how it does!

I’m looking at trying Battletech this year so these videos are great for me learning what on earth is going on.
For. I'm not gonna play Battletech myself, but your videos still allow me to enjoy the game at least a little bit.
I love Classic and I love Alpha Strike. I prefer Alpha Strike.
@@Redmow51 Same
I'm all for Battletech content. I think it's a great game with a very low barrier for entry
For Alpha Strike - bonus more occasional hex map battles w AS
I love your battle reports! :) Great stuff!
Love battletech! More videos please
Please, more Alpha Strike!!
More Alpha Strike 👍
For. You have an easy to follow style of narrating
I am for alpha strike I think it would be a good candidate for a narrative campaign like fallout cause Battletech seems to lend itself to a narrative style.
Of the battle tech videos you've done this one is my favorite, great battle. Love all the BT vids so 100% FOR
I'm coming from 40k, and I'm absolutely in love with alpha strike. I'm sure classic is a good system, but alpha strike is much new jam
For, got to learn it for my friends, because they want me to do this.
It's a fun game.
Definitely for alpha strike
For!
Very much for.
For because i like to see the mechs ;V
What buildings are those?
3D printed ones from Etsy.
For
Yes yes and yes ☺️
for
If a mech has an OV of 1 he adds 1 damage, if he has an OV of 2 he can choose to overheat for 1 or 2 if he chooses 2 he can apply 2 damage etc. Crit wise you can have a maximum of 2 crits per round of shooting per mech firing so 1 from double 6's and 1 from going into structure (you only get 1 crit from going into structure even if you do more than 1 damage to the structure)
Against. I'll be in the minority (only) and say it 😅 I'm not a fan of the models, i have no connection to Battletech, and I'm sure the fun of the game comes from the strategy of picking your maneuvers against an opponent, which I don't think translates well to the video reporting style of the channel. I did originally become a member for Fallout and RE3 primarily, as they are a lot more narrative in style, so this just isn't my cup of tea - like most of the stuff covered as of late.
For!!!!
Very much for! Great stuff!
Definitely for. I really like the system as a whole, and it's very entertaining to watch.
For. I enjoy mechs, I enjoy rolling dice. This game has both. Everybody wins.
for, I would like to see more Battletech and Alpha strike
For. Always keen for more Battletech.
for! loving some mech combat
For love battletech
Alpha Strike is one of my favorite miniature games at the moment! Indirect fire needs a spotter and is +1 TN to hit, +2 if the spotter shot or will shoot. Overheat in the "multiple dice" optional rule adds and extra set of dice to roll per OV amount used. Heat only dissipates if you do not shoot weapons in a turn. All heat goes away that turn not firing. You can also dissipate 1 heat if standing in water.
I will say for.
Is there a list of games we can for/ against? I am thinking, if you get "for" for all the games, we will only see them once in every 10 videos. I think maybe some idea of what all the options are would be smashing
I’m sure there will be some that get less interaction in general and I don’t want to spoil everything I intend to put in this series but the first video in the playlist includes a preview of around 7 or 8.
For.
Note that the Clan mechs do not default to skill 3.
They default to skill 4 like all mechs, you got to pay PV for that skill 3.
The missions in the AS box I think are balanced if you use their mission info exactly.
I’m aware pilot skill factors into overall points I’m pretty sure I said exactly that and it’s how both sides are as close to even as possible in that regard.
