This revised edition has been updated with an overview of the Jihad and Republic era, up to 3084, covering its effects on support vehicle production and various efforts to use them as weapons of war. From cargo trucks to tanker airships, airborne MASH to communications satellites, armored transport rails to coastal patrol boats, hauler exoskeletons to AgroMechs, even hover and wheeled police cruisers or civilian vehicles conscripted to the military: the support vehicle is the true backbone of any military machine.īuilt using the construction rules in TechManualTM and Tactical OperationsTM, Technical Readout: Vehicle AnnexTM provides a never-before-seen look at the support vehicles behind the militaries of every faction, as well as a slice of daily life in the BattleTech® universe. But no battle could be waged, nor won, without the mammoth apparatus of support vehicles that feed the war machine of the Great Houses. Attack and Defend is a challenging new mission type where your mercenaries must destroy an enemy's base to stop a steady stream of attackers before they can overcome your forces and knock out your employer's base.MechWarriors receive all the glory aerospace fighters are a close second vehicles are considered the workhorses of any military infantry are even given their day in the sun in the minds of the common citizen. The Gallant Urban Assault Tank sports a variety of weapons to fight at all ranges with speed and agility, the Packrat is a battlefield support vehicle equipped with a prototype version of ECM, and the Rotunda is a reconnaissance vehicle equipped with a prototype version of Active Probe. A wide variety of new branching short stories that link together mercenary missions, crew conversations, special events, critical choices, and rare bonus rewards.

The Javelin is a compromise between speed and firepower, with close-range knockout power. The experimental Raven 1X sports an advanced electronic warfare package that combines ECM and Active Probe systems into a lightweight component. Meanwhile, 'Mechs equipped with Active Probe can reveal, locate, and target enemy units that would otherwise be hidden. 'Mechs equipped with Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) and nearby friendly units are obscured from enemy targeting systems and immune to indirect fire. The return of these lost technologies will forever change the 31st century battlefield. Destroyed coolant exchanger buildings, and broken electrical transformers that disrupt targeting will drastically change the battle as you go.

Every building in the new urban biome is fully destructible, so you're never more than a few salvos away from a new line of sight, or the defensive cover of high-rise rubble. Street brawls introduce new tactical gameplay challenges as 'Mech combat moves from wide-open natural landscapes to vast urban sprawls. Urban Warfare brings 'Mech combat to the vast cityscapes of the Inner Sphere! Electronic warfare, large-scale building destruction, environmental mechanics, new enemy units and more make the urban sprawl a whole new battlefield.
