Description[edit]

The MechWarrior: Ares 3-Pack is a collection of plastic miniatures for use in the revised MechWarrior: Age of Destruction miniatures game.

From the back cover[edit]

Developed by the mysterious Rhodes Project, the Ares is the first-ever colossal-class 'Mech. Tipping the scales at an unprecedented 130 tons, these hulking 'Mechs are both gun platforms and impromptu infantry transports for armies with pockets deep enough to hire them. Requiring a three-man crew, each Ares is loaded out with different special equipment and arm-mounted weapons. These three 'Mechs are each named after a Greek god, mortal men tremble at their approach!
