Description[edit]

The BattleTech Reinforcements boxed set was a game supplement for the BattleTech board game boxed set, providing a Record Sheets booklet for the BattleMechs from the original Technical Readout: 3025 and two sets of cardboard playing pieces in the fashion of those in the original Battledroids and BattleTech, 2nd Edition boxed sets, with card-stands. The playing pieces' art and coloring is different from the playing pieces in the game's boxed sets even where it is depicting the same 'Mech.

The record sheets booklet was reprinted separately in 1991 as BattleTech Reinforcements: BattleMech Record Sheets 3025 and sold under the stock number 1625A.

From the back cover[edit]

“ HERE COMES THE CAVALRY!
And 110 'Mechs make one Helluva Cavalry.

All 55 'Mechs described in the Technical Readout are now available as BattleTech playing pieces. Each 'Mech is shown in full front and back view, printed in full color on heavy cardstock. You get two of each 'Mech, for a total of 110 pieces.
Also included are 24 card-stands and a book of 55 filled-out record sheets, one for each 'Mech.
