Watch “How to Get Your First Mercenary Contract! | BattleTech Chaos Campaign/Hinterlands Tutorial Part 2,” a how-to-play guide on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by GCZ Gaming on YouTube:
We have a force - now it's time to find a contract! I walk through contract terms and how they work in the BattleTech Hot Spots Hinterlands/Chaos Campaign: Mercenaries system - base pay, transportation costs, support, salvage, and command rights. I also explain how to select a contract, either by selecting one of the pre-written hot spots, or by generating your own with the Dobless Information Systems random tables.
This is the first setup video for my Thor's Wrath campaign.
Setting: Succession Wars era (Chaos Campaign: Mercenaries)
Rules: Total Warfare (Classic BattleTech)
