BattleTech is the world's greatest tabletop armored combat game, filled with a myriad of epic stories and gaming experiences. Leap into the action!

Features[edit]

This app includes numerous features that allows digital tracking of record sheet elements, increasing the speed and fun of any BattleTech game night.

Features:

  • Includes record sheets from the BattleTech: Beginner Box and A Game of Armored Combat, as well as the primary record sheets for all Wave 1 'Mechs from the BattleTech: Clan Invasion Kickstarter.
  • 'Mech information is tracked and saved across all record sheets in-use during a game.
  • Customize MechWarrior name and Gunnery/Piloting Skills, or choose from a variety of preset MechWarrior Pilot cards.
  • Preview heat usage from user-selected weapon firing strategies. When you're ready, press Fire, and heat is automatically tracked.
  • Ammo tracking including support for multiple slots.
  • Heat Effects are summarized when applied, including indiciation any appropriate weapon modifiers to each weapon line for ease of reference.
  • Every section of the record sheet's Armor and Internal Diagrams can be tapped and the appropriate level of damage applied.
  • Critical Hits - as well as the loss of limbs - automatically apply their appropriate movement and weapon firing restrictions.
  • An Undo Last Damage button allows for the correcting of potential mistakes.
  • The End of Turn button, with a Yes and No verification, ensures you are ready to apply final effects of a game turn to all of your record sheets in-use before starting a new turn.
