The Mercenary Salvage Box was created as a part of the [[2023 Mercenaries Crowdfunding Campaign]]. The miniature in each Salvage Box is determined randomly, although the Alpha Strike dry-erase card and Pilot Card match the BattleMech. Salvage boxes were available in the Kickstarter through three routes: those who backed the Kickstarter at a level that entitled them to receive [[lance]] or [[star]] packs and chose to receive a lance pack received one free Salvage Box per lance pack to ensure parity of 'Mechs; those who pledged at the Recruit tier or higher received one or more free Salvage Boxes as a part of their pledge; and Salvage Boxes could be purchased as Kickstarter add-ons for US$8 each.

Description[edit]

The successor to the original BattleTech Salvage Box, BattleTech Salvage Box: Mercenary is a lucky-dip box containing one plastic BattleMech miniature for use in the classic BattleTech tabletop and Alpha Strike games. The box also provides one dry-erase card, which are intended to directly support Alpha Strike gameplay, and one new Pilot Card.

The Mercenary Salvage Box was created as a part of the 2023 Mercenaries Crowdfunding Campaign. The miniature in each Salvage Box is determined randomly, although the Alpha Strike dry-erase card and Pilot Card match the BattleMech. Salvage boxes were available in the Kickstarter through three routes: those who backed the Kickstarter at a level that entitled them to receive lance or star packs and chose to receive a lance pack received one free Salvage Box per lance pack to ensure parity of 'Mechs; those who pledged at the Recruit tier or higher received one or more free Salvage Boxes as a part of their pledge; and Salvage Boxes could be purchased as Kickstarter add-ons for US$8 each.

Unlike the original Salvage Box Catalyst Game Labs has qualified upfront during the campaign that the contents of Mercenary Salvage Boxes will only draw from the 'Mechs in the BattleTech: Mercenaries box set as well as the five Inner Sphere ForcePacks and two Clan ForcePacks announced as part of the Mercenaries crowdfunding campaign for a total of thirty-eight options. The combat vehicles from the Mercenaries boxset, Battlefield Support boxes as well as unique miniatures from the Legendary MechWarriors II and III packs will not be included.[1][2]
