It may interest you how the minis are distributed in the european boosters and starters of MW: DA.
I have bought 2 starters & 4 boosters until now:

Booster with Tundra Wolf picture:
003, 014, 054, 099 = Centurion 139 GREEN

Booster with Atlas picture:
012, 018, 031, 110 = Ryoken II 191 Caden Senn UNIQUE

Booster with AgroMech picture:
010, 016, 034, 111 = Legionnaire 124 Jaqueline Tadaka UNIQUE

Booster with Spider picture:
001, 010, 053, 112 = Catapult 193 Meghann Tenclay UNIQUE

Starter with Jupiter picture (left part of battle):
002, 005, 009, 011, 023, 052, 064, 099 = Centurion 139 GREEN

Starter with Atlas picture (right part of pattle):
005, 009, 009, 017, 023, 050, 065, 093 = Koshi 98 GREEN

As i got a Infantry TWICE in a starter and some guy complained about getting a Infantry THREE times with only 1 starter & 1 booster, i have calculated the chances for getting a Infantry at least twice:

As there are only 27 Infantry minis (9 different with 3 rarities each),
the chance that you get 2 of the same Infantry in a booster is 1/27.
THAT IS ~4% !

In a starter the chances that you get at least 2 of the same Infantry are bigger than 15 %.

If you buy a starter and a single booster, you get 2 Mechs, 3 Vehicles and 7 Infantry.
The chances that you get at least 2 of the same Infantry are ~25%.

What experiences have you made with MW: DA starters & boosters until now ?

By the way, the european starters dont contain unique units and there are no faction dossiers in it (only rulebook & Special Equipment Card).

As the US MW:DA starters contain one of six faction dossiers each, can someone send me his spare faction dossiers ?

MechWarrior: Dark Age is a game with minis (like Mage Knight), which are made of plastic in the scale 1/160 !

It has nothing to do with the BT Trading CardGame made by WotC
