Edit 2: Late backers button up, so if you missed it you can still get in! The pledge manager has not been sent out yet so you can get add-ons or upgrade pledges as a late backer once that comes out.
Edit: Here's a free Primer from Catalyst games: https://store.catalystgamelabs.com/collections/battletech/products/battletech-primer
As well as a free campaign: https://store.catalystgamelabs.com/collections/battletech/products/battletech-chaos-campaign-succession-wars
CGL has updated the Kickstarter with new add-ons with free shipping on those newly added add-ons(shipping costs still apply for everything else). They can be found at the bottom of the campaign page with prices.
These new add-ons include the existing Beginner box set, Game of Armored Combat starter box set, the most up to date manuals/source books/rule books/technical readouts, a fast play rules version of the game called "Alpha Strike", game maps, a new RPG style game based in the BattleTech universe that doesn't even require miniatures to play, and a hard copy version of the legendary individuals of the game's universe.

BattleTech: Clan Invasion
Classic BattleTech from the 80's has returned and been revived, now Catalyst Games Labs is taking it a step further and updating the Clan Invasion. Updated/refreshed miniatures, heavily influenced by MechWarrior Online's and HBS BattleTech's redesigns. Best of all the "Unseen" are once again "Reseen". Not a fan of the Clans? There's plenty of Inner Sphere miniatures as well.
For those new to BattleTech, it is one of the greatest and longest-lasting science fiction universes. A "Game of Thrones in space, with big stompy robots" set in the factional, militarized universe of the thirty-first century. Humanity has spread to the stars and spawned titanic interstellar empires, each controlling hundreds of worlds, cross a combined region of space stretching more than a thousand light years.
For thirty-five years, players have immersed themselves in the BattleTech novels and source books, captivated by the dynamic characters and epic events. All while tossing dice and moving miniatures around their tables in an effort to claim victory against their friends. And the adventures only continue.
Fluff:
It is the 31st Century, a time of endless wars that rage across human-occupied space. As star empires clash, these epic wars are won and lost by BattleMechs, 30-foot-tall humanoid metal titans bristling with lasers, autocannons and dozens of other lethal weapons. Your elite force of MechWarriors pilots these juggernauts into battle, proudly holding your faction's flag high, intent on expanding the power and glory of your realm. Will you become legend, or a lost casualty on a forgotten world? Only you will determine your fate!
