Pick one by its history, or just because the unit has a cool looking paint job. Go through the archives and see what House, Clan, faction or Merc unit tickles your fancy. If you run as a mercenary, becuase most of your 'Mechs would be salvaged from battles, while others would be purchased from whatever employer you had at the time. It is acceptable that the 1st Davion Guards in the post-3057 Fedederated Suns might have a couple of Steiner Mechs, but not a lance or two of Kurita units. Do you wish to fight for one of the Great Houses, a Clan, a faction such as Comstar, or do wish to be a mercenary? If you fight for a Great House or Clan, you will be limited as to what Mechs you can use. Your next step is to start looking through the fiction of Battletech and discover what era do you want to be in and who your Mechs are fighting for. As long as you have the sheet to the Mech you are playing, it doesn't really matter what it is represented by, as long as everybody knows what it really is. You can take that Jenner, call it an Atlas and keep on moving. The nice thing about Battletech is you can proxy Mechs. You find your stable of Mechs to be limiting and you're eyeing all those blisters on the wall of your FLGS. Now that you have some experience under your belt, you'll want to expand. Continue playing with your same Mechs, moving up to some lance vs. It has all of the rules related to the game itself. If they loan you miniatures to play with, treat them as they were your firstborn. Once you have that under your belt, move to the next level. Get used to the mechanics and how things work in the game, and why they do so. Get the Beginner Box and play a few simple small games at home with a friend or spouse (if they're into wargaming as well). Both have the basic rules of the game, a history of the BattleTech Universe and what you need to start out playing.

The full box set is called "A Game of Armored Combat" (AGOAC) and has twelve miniatures. Support your FLGS and buy them locally, the link is so you know what you're looking for. The Beginner Box is just enough to taste Battletech with two miniatures you can paint. The first thing to get in just about every instance I can think of is one of the latest Box Sets. If you're single, try to avoid the "air and ramen" diet as well. If you do decide to start dropping coin, f igure out a budget of what you can afford without getting your spouse/significant other upset at you and making you sleep on the couch. Make sure you like the game before you start dropping serious coin on this. Starting out, I suggest you play with OPM's (Other Peoples' Miniatures) first. Next, come home and since you're already on this website (DUH!), read everything else here too. You just discovered Battletech at your FLGS (Friendly Local Game Store) and you want to do everything at the same time, but you don't know what to do first.
