'''''Tales of the Black Widow Company''''' is the first scenario pack that was published for the [[BattleTech]] boardgame. It was apparently designed with the earlier [[Battledroids]] rules, as the unique [[BattleMech]]s featured in the book comply with Battledroids construction rules but violate BattleTech construction rules.

The book focuses on the legendary [[Natasha Kerensky]] and her [[Black Widow Company]]. It details the unit's pilots and [['Mech]]s during the period that their parent unit, [[Wolf's Dragoons]], were in the service of the [[Draconis Combine]] ([[3023]] to [[3028]]). A separate scenario is set in [[3022]], when the Dragoons were in service of the [[Lyran Commonwealth]]. The book gives a brief history of Wolf's Dragoons, and their leader [[Jaime Wolf]], before going on to detail the history of the Black Widow Company itself. It then gives information of all twelve pilots in the company and their 'Mechs, including details of mechanical foibles and failures that the 'Mechs suffer from.
