'''''The Battle For Algol''''' is an official scenario pack for the [[MechWarrior: Dark Age]] (MWDA) Clix game, containing two scenarios. It was first published through the now defunct [[MechWarrior: Dark Age Website|website]] that [[WizKids]] maintained in support of their [[MechWarrior: Dark Age]] game line, to support organized play and tournaments.

==Content==
===Scenario 1 - Smorgasbord===
In an effort to further destabilize the region and throw the fear of Liao into all of Prefecture V, Liao sends a small tactical force to the world of [[Algol]]. Because the world’s massive food production services numerous worlds in the vicinity, disrupting the regularly scheduled food exports will cause havoc and weaken Republic control. As the forces first drop near the [[Algol]] DropPort, they quickly realize the key to gaining control of the critical spaceport is to capture its control tower.

===Scenario 2 - Repeating History===
Following the battle for the DropPort, the retreating forces make their way to the old [[AFFS]] Munitions Depot, which was destroyed during the [[Word of Blake Jihad]]. Among the burned-out husks of warehouses and scorched earth, battle once again is waged.
