The Maps Are Awesome
The box set includes two double sided maps made from thick game board. They’re really good looking and feel sturdy and high quality. They gave me a little trouble lying flat right out of the box but I think a little use will help them stretch out a bit.
This is a huge improvement from the thin paper maps of old. They are vastly better than any other map done for BattleTech which makes a great case for the Hex-Pack series. If there ever was a good reason to update your maps, you have it. Pick up the box set for four of the most ubiquitous fighting environments in the game. Included is the Standard BattleTech map, Open Terrain, Lake Area, and a dense Urban map.
Glossy Paper Everywhere
The rulebook and the universe book are redone in a high quality glossy paper. They look great and fit with everything else in the box set. The entire package screams quality on par with any other manufacturer in the business today.
Miniatures
The usual suspects from the original box set are all included and are done in a slightly harder plastic. I found it a little tougher to work with an exacto knife but I think it would end up improving the long term stability of any paint job.
The resin Loki and Thor are a great addition and just add to the set’s phenomenal value.
Get Yours
Whether you are a new comer or a grizzled veteran, you will find something to enjoy in this box set. The miniatures alone were a great reason to buy the old box set. The addition of the two high quality Clan OmniMechs and the new board game quality maps make it a must buy.
