BattleTech Battlefield Support: Battle & Fire — 8 Miniatures + Dry-Erase Cards by Catalyst Game Labs

BattleTech Battlefield Support: Battle & Fire — Expanded Firepower for classic BattleTech and Alpha Strike

BattleTech Battlefield Support: Battle & Fire by Catalyst Game Labs adds eight finely sculpted plastic miniatures that bring new firepower, unit variety, and tactical options to your table. Designed to work with both the classic BattleTech rules and the streamlined Alpha Strike system, this set broadens your battlefield vocabulary with purpose and style. Whether you’re a seasoned commander or a newer player seeking to grow your collection, these components offer possibilities to enhance your games without prescribing a single path.

The box also includes four durable dry-erase alpha strike cards that let you mark damage, abilities, and situational effects as you play. Reusable and quick to update, these cards help keep the table clear and your turns flowing smoothly. In addition, four unique crew cards introduce new pilot abilities and battlefield roles, adding layers of customization that can inspire fresh campaign ideas and varied force compositions.

What’s inside the Battle & Fire pack

• 8 expertly sculpted plastic miniatures ready to use in Alpha Strike and classic BattleTech games
• 4 dry-erase alpha strike cards for quick, reusable damage and effect tracking
• 4 crew cards with fresh pilot options and battlefield roles

Gameplay versatility and how it fits your table

This expansion is designed for compatibility with both systems, letting you mix rulesets for hybrid campaigns or separate play sessions. Expect new tactical angles as you coordinate long-range exchanges, evaluate terrain advantages, and leverage close-quarters maneuvers with clearer visibility on the tabletop. The miniatures arrive pre-assembled for faster setup, and the dry-erase sheets stand up to repeat use during heated sessions.

Beyond the minis themselves, Battlefield Support: Battle & Fire is positioned as a premium add-on. It was introduced during the 2023 Mercenaries Crowdfunding Campaign and unlocked as a major stretch goal at the six-million-dollar milestone, then offered as a selectable ForcePack at various pledge levels and later as a $40 add-on. Today it remains a popular expansion for collectors and players alike, delivering a compact, deliberate enhancement to your battles.
