Units are being reworked to be more suitable for the campaign.

Many of the standard TRO stuff is a little large, and uses stuff that i dont want the Conventional units to use like Fusion Engines and stuff.

'Command' Variants, are meant to be the command vehicle for a Lance of similar units and may only be used after having (3) of the normal variants in use.

'Limited' units may only appear singularly and may only appear in a mission once.  A Merc. unit may own only one Limited Unit.

---

Characters may buy a number of vehicles equal to the characters rank.
Total weight of all vehicles combined may not exceed the weight of the characters current mech.  Characters pay for the cost of the vehicle out of their Bank.  During missions, these units move with the mechwarrior's initiative.

Unit are only available when the character has access to the repair pool, units may not be used for 'large' missions  (Missions with over a company of merc mechs present.)


Characters also need to decide on the quality of the crew they wish to hire on to use the vehicle.



Salary is paid out to the crews once per mission.  If the unit does not fight during the contract, their salary is halved.

*Units equipped with Beagle or Guardian have a -4 bonus applied to their scout tn.

*Vehicles may not be modified

Crew quality Roll Adjustment is applied when checking for availability when purchasing vehicle.  Additional rolls may be made after unit has been bought to purchase better crews.

Vehicles do not 'combat drop'.

Vehicles are only available if you have access to repair pools.

Conventional APCs carry a single squad of (7) Infantry into combat.  The Maximum Quality of the infantry is capped by the APC that carries them.  The Infantry Quality rating is also used to determine the weapons available to the Infantry.

Transport Vehicles exist not for combat, but to haul equipment around.  Having access to the repair pool will provide a good bit of armor and ammo, but sometimes it just isnt enough and you need more.  Possibly you need access to spare weapons or modules to repair field damage.  Transports will bring these things to you.

For SOME missions, not all, Transports may also be called in to help with an objective which involves the acquisition of equipment from a warehouse, or choice salvage on the field, that will need to be removed for use.

A Transport's Crew Quality will determine how Effective the crews working on the Transport are for loading and packing away cargo on the transports.

Listed Cargo Space is the 'Base' Cargo.

x 80% Cargo for Green   Transports
x100% Cargo for Regular Transports
x105% Cargo for Veteran Transports
x110% Cargo for Elite   Transports

{Overloading Transports above listed Cargo will reduce the transports Movement!}

Support Units exist for off map indirect combat support.

While they do not appear on the mission map, they provide a field of indirect fire support.
