The Battletech Scenario Pack series by Michael A. Stackpole spans seventeen entries published between 1985 and 2018, opening with Tales Of The Black Widow Company and The Fox’s Teeth: Exploits Of McKinnon’s Raiders in 1985. These early scenario packs introduced named units like the Kell Hounds (1988), Sorenson’s Sabres (1987), and Rhonda’s Irregulars (1991) that went on to feature in BattleTech fiction more broadly.

Later entries in the collection shift in format — Northwind Highlanders (2002), Classic Battletech Starterbook: Sword and Dragon (2007), and Battletech Total Chaos (2012) reflect how the scenario pack format evolved over the years. The final numbered entry, Twilight of the Clans (1998), rounds out the core run before the later supplemental entries appear. Reading through in publication order gives the clearest view of how the scenario content developed across three decades.
