Another volume in the Classic Battletech core rules series, Strategic Operations focuses on “forces in solar system” (as opposed to “forces on world” for Tactical Operations and the even-wider-ranging scope of the forthcoming Interstellar Operations). This book’s main sections consist of general rules covering a variety of topics (including a system for abstracted aerospace gaming); rules for advanced aerospace movement, combat, and unit construction; maintenance, repair, salvage, and customization rules; and miniatures rules (as opposed to using miniatures on a standard hex maps).
