Spotlight On: Crescent Hawks (abbreviated SO:Crescent Hawks) is the first in a series of campaign supplements designed to details on combat units featured in the BattleTech Universe.

SO: Crescent Hawks provides the background of the unit from its inception as a Lyran special ops unit to latest reincarnation in 3140s. The book reveals never before published information/background of the Crescent Hawks and which allows any player to be able run the company in numerous of different BattleTech campaign game formats and eras.

Also in this book; Listing of character profiles of its notable members per three eras in which the unit was active in, force composition at its notable moment in its history, alternate game options/stats for Total Warfare, Alpha Strike, Abstract Combat System and provides Alpha Strike Data Cards for all eras and Record Sheets for two of the unit's more notable BattleMechs.

Publisher's Description[edit]

For every Kell Hounds or Wolf’s Dragoons, there are a hundred similar outfits that are just as talented—and just as deadly—that you have never heard of. Or worse, you have not heard enough. Sure, the glory hounds who make the evening tri-vid news are movers and shakers, and can change national borders whenever they want, but they’re not the only ones. For every Eridani Light Horse brigade, there is a mercenary crew with a storied battlefield history just as spectacular. These are the unit commands that have gone largely unnoticed in the long, bloody history of the Inner Sphere, their stories untold or nearly forgotten. Take a closer look at the battles and events that have shaped the human sphere, and you’ll find even two-bit troops like Wilson’s Hussars have made a difference.

Spotlight On: Crescent Hawks includes a Unit History, Personalities, Personnel Rosters, Mission Tracks, and data for use with all scales of BattleTech play.
