"Go to the sign of Marvel's Axe, a dubious inn on the edge of the Thieves Quarter, in the City of Greyhawk, and look to your own wrist. If you perceive a bracelet and dangling dice, watch for the next throw in the war between Law and Chaos and be prepared to follow the compelling geas." -Signal

Battletech Compendium: The Rule of Warfare


This is a newer version of the Battletech Compendium. This one was published in 1994. I for the life of me do not recall where I picked this one up. The was part of a 10th anniversary release of books put out by FASA. I hate to say it but I have used less than the earlier edition from yesterday.


Welcome to the year 3056. The Successor States of the Inner Sphere battle each other and their deadliest enemies, the invading Clans, in endless wars that rage across the Known universe. These epic conflicts are won and lost by BattleMechs, 30-foot tall, humanoid titans of metal that pack enough firepower to destroy entire cities.

BattleTech celebrates its tenth anniversary with the BattleTech Compendium: The Rules of Warfare, the ultimate guide to combat in the 31st century. All the rules needed to simulate exciting conflicts between BattleMechs, vehicles, and infantry are included, revising and streamlining the material from from the BattleTech, 3rd Edition, CityTech, 2nd Edition and the original BattleTech Compendium. The Rules of Warfare also contains a concise history of the BattleTech universe and its movers and shakers, several new BattleMech and OmniMech designs, rules for miniatures play, and full-color illustrations.
