Catalyst Game Labs launched a phenomenally successful Kickstarter just yesterday that is poised to bring the Clans back to Battletech.

If you have not been keeping up with the revamp that Catalyst has been bringing to Battletech over the last few years, here’s the gist. Battletech is back and bigger than ever. You might have seen the recent expansions for the game that include a new beginner’s box and the Arano Restoration–which ties in the excellent computer game with the current iteration of Battletech.

Now, Catalyst Games is kicking off the Clan Invasion, with a massively successful Kickstarter that, at press time, was sitting at $671,029 raised before its first day had even passed. Thanks to a enthusiastic crowd of backers, you’ll now be able to get a ton of new Omnimechs, redesigned with the aesthetics of modern Battletech (thank you Mechwarrior Online), Elementals, and even a redesign of several classic Inner Sphere mechs to be taken as Isorla. Backers are getting all kinds of freebies thanks to the breakout success of this–so if you’re thinking about it, you’ll want to get in now.

Over the last twelve years, Catalyst Game Labs has revamped the core rules and published three variants of the box set, released dozens of new sourcebooks, and created thirty-two plastic miniature designs

Despite these successes, one goal has remained out of reach: the expansion of our miniatures line to include re-designs of the popular Clan OmniMechs.

Until now.

The Clan Invasion box set is the central product of this campaign. Meanwhile, our stretch goals and add-ons include additional high-quality redesigns, and enough swag to keep even the most jaded Clan warriors satisfied with their spoils of war. To that effect, we are offering DOUBLE FORCES for pledge levels of BLOODNAMED! and above. If your pledge level includes a Star Pack or Lance Pack as a reward, we will send you a second one for free!


You’ll have to check out the Kickstarter to see for yourself the whole suite of ‘mechs currently available. There are plenty of maps, Clan and Inner Sphere pilot cards, and even new novels (one of the stretch goals is to create a main character based on one of the backers, so get in if you want to see yourself in the world of Battletech) inbound.
