BattleTech Aces Scouring Sands is a solo and cooperative campaign expansion for BattleTech Alpha Strike. Players answer the Alynia Mercantile League’s call, build a mercenary force and fight through a story campaign in the war-torn Hinterlands.
This is an expansion and not a standalone game. A copy of BattleTech Alpha Strike is required to use it, and the Aces AI card system drives enemy behaviour for solo and cooperative play.
