Description

MechWarrior: Fire For Effect Booster Pack is a booster pack for MechWarrior: Fire For Effect, which is an expansion to the MechWarrior: Dark Age collectable miniatures game.

This expansion introduced a second collection of miniatures for use in the game. Also it introduced artillery units along with artillery rules, transport vehicles for moving infantry units, and mercenary units from various classic mercenary companies, which were separate from other factions. This expansion had blind booster packs, but no dedicated starter sets. Starter sets for the MechWarrior: Dark Age set, namely MechWarrior: Dark Age Starter Set and eventually the later released MechWarrior: Dark Age Premier Edition, still served as an introduction to the base game.

From the back cover

“ The Republic is failing. Factions vie for power across the stars, and once again the Inner Sphere is engulfed in war. The ways of peace die a hard, painful death. The weapons of war rise from their long slumber. Troops march through shattered cities. Tanks roar to life. The sons of the Grim Reaper, the great BattleMechs, again stride across the battlefield like kings. But even MechWarriors fear the sharp eye of the artillery spotter... ”

Contents

Each booster pack includes:

  • 4 randomly inserted MechWarrior miniatures: 1 'Mech, 1 vehicle, and 2 infantry units
