The rules for these games are presented below if the points cost or game rules differ significantly.
In keeping with the more abstract nature of the Alpha Strike and Strategic BattleForce rulesets, the Quirk restrictions and rules in the Alpha Strike Companion and SBF are generally streamlined, and often very different than the BattleTech rules. Interstellar Operations added several items of Era-dependent equipment that grant one or more Design Quirks, rules for Quirks in Strategic BattleForce, and (with the Alpha Strike Companion) clarified which Design Quirks apply to Drone units. Several new Quirks were introduced in these sources, which are compiled (along with the TRO:Prototypes quirks) in the print version of TRO:3145 and RS:3145NTNU. In addition, the TROs of the 3145 series gave quirks for all the units they presented. Volumes of the PDF-only Experimental Technical Readout series published during or after July 2011 (starting with XTRO:Clans) include quirks for most units. Ĭurrently, a fairly comprehensive list of quirks exists for canonical designs, as published in the BattleMech Manual, expanding on the list that Strategic Operations began. The Javelin's entry, for example, contained rules for an early version of the Unbalanced Negative Quirk. The idea is an old one, first established in the 'Mech descriptions in the original versions of TRO:3025. They are intended to increase the depth of gameplay, providing rules for otherwise unsupported features mentioned in game fiction. A more complete list of quirks, both positive and negative was then included in the BattleMech Manual. 2.2.30 Poor Targeting (Short, Medium, and Long)ĭesign Quirks are an optional ruleset, first formalized in Strategic Operations.2.1.25 Improved Targeting (Short, Medium, and Long).
