BattleTech Aces Scouring Sands Expansion by Catalyst Game Labs | Alpha Strike Campaign with 9 Miniatures, 70 AI Cards

BattleTech Aces Scouring Sands is a narrative expansion that invites players to lead in a full campaign crafted for Alpha Strike and Aces. Expect missions with branching paths, evolving objectives, and AI‑driven opposition that responds to your choices. Set in the harsh deserts of the Inner Sphere, the environment tests your command with heat, dust, and shifting terrain that can alter lines of sight and movement across a map. Each encounter becomes a small drama where resource decisions and repositioning matter as much as raw firepower.

This expansion brings a ready-to-play campaign toolkit to your battles: nine detailed miniatures to populate the desert skirmishes, seventy AI cards that guide the enemy’s tactics, plus terrain pieces, campaign rules, and mission decks. The aim is to support structured progression across linked battles, letting you build a longer narrative arc without losing the tactical focus BattleTech is known for. The components are designed to be approachable for newcomers while offering depth that seasoned players can savor, with lore-grounded content that aligns with the wider BattleTech universe.
