From the back cover
“ | Forces In Solar System!
Liftoff planet and conquer an entire solar system! Deploy kilometer-long WarShips as escorts, first for JumpShips bridging the gulf between stars, then for detaching DropShips that burn in system to drop troops onto any battlefield. New aerospace tactics will allow you to gain air supremacy to match your grasp of ground tactics. Yet the war for a star system is more than a single battle and a commander that utilizes his supplies and personnel with skill will survive the numerous battles to come. Strategic Operations is the one-source rulebook for advanced rules aerospace assets that open the entire conquest of a solar system. It includes new aerospace movement, combat and advanced aerospace unit construction rules, as well as comprehensive maintenance, salvage, repair and customization rules. Finally, a complete game system—BattleForce—allows players to use their existing miniatures and mapsheets to play quick, fast-paced BattleTech games, from companies to battalions and even regiments. |

Notes
- Like Total Warfare and other books in the new series, most of the artwork in the book are pictures of painted miniatures. This book expands the BattleTech eras to play in from previous volumes defining the time periods of the following eras:
- Age of War era (2398-2569)
- Reunification War (2570-2597)
- Star League era (2598-2784)
- The Succession Wars era is further subdivided into
- First Succession War era (2785-2827)
- Second Succession War era (2828-2863)
- Third Succession War era (2864-3027)
- Fourth Succession War era (3028-3049)
- Clan Invasion era (3050-3066)
- Jihad era (3067 and later)
- This book was intended to be released at GenCon on 11 August, 2009.[1]
- In 2021 Strategic Operations received a third printing that removed all BattleForce and Miniatures rules from the volume. Strategic Operations: Advanced Aerospace Rules, while technically a reprint, was given it's own article due to the extent of change.
