Description[edit]
The McCarron's Armored Cavalry Assault Lance is one of the Mercenary ForcePacks, tentatively scheduled for Third Quarter 2024 release. The ForcePack contains four plastic miniatures for use in the classic BattleTech tabletop and Alpha Strike games. The box also provides four dry-erase cards, which are intended to directly support Alpha Strike gameplay, and eight MechWarrior Pilot Cards.
McCarron's Armored Cavalry Assault Lance is slated to be exclusive to Barnes & Noble similar to the Wolf's Dragoons Assault Star, Eridani Light Horse Hunter Lance and the Gray Death Legion Heavy Battle Lance, all of which featured a six month exclusivity window prior to becoming available at mass retail.

Included is the new Tian-Zong, a re-posed Black Knight, and new variants of the Awesome and jumping Starslayer—no assembly required—along with four MechWarrior pilot cards and four Alpha Strike cards. Perfect for BattleTech and Alpha Strike action! |
