DESCRIPTION:
An Okay book for your collection. I mainly purchased this book for information on Galatea and what it had was lacking in detail. The other two mercenary hiring worlds were also lacking detail, Westerhand, and Northwind. Each world only got about 2 pages each. Most of the book is devoted to information about various mercenary groups in operation. I should note that the timeline for this book is 3067.
Special rules allow players to use these commands in their Classic BattleTech campaigns, while a new point-based construction system provides an optional way to generate mercenary commands.. A companion volume to Classic BattleTech Field Manual: Mercenaries, Revised, the Mercenaries Supplemental? provides an in-depth look at a few of the best and many of the worst known Inner Sphere mercenary commands, including histories, officers, and favorite tactics. That doesn't mean war doesn't come in the form of objective raids, internal power struggles or outright piracy to such factions and backwater worlds. If they can point and shoot, someone, somewhere, will hire them. Not every interstellar power can afford the likes of the Wolf's Dragoons. For such, any mercenary group will do, even the dregs. Not every world has the resources to hire even a lance from the elite Kell Hounds
