  • Mechcommander: Gold Manual
    SUPPLEMENTAL A BRIEFING ****CLASSIFIED COMMUNIQUE**** Commander, as I stated in the vidcom, I am canceling your orders to return home. I know this is very tough on morale—you and your men deserve some R&R after your distinguished service in the attacks on the Clan Homeworlds. But I know that you understand the need to finish the job: to eliminate this threat to the Inner Sphere once and for all. On a positive note, Battalion has sent some new ’Mechs and weapons your way that should help bolster spirits some. • Three new Inner Sphere ’Mechs and the specifications for three new Clan ’Mechs. • Six new vehicles. • Five new weapons. • The waypoint feature. • The ammo conservation fire command. • Difficulty level settings. • Fire support mission hotkeys (for large and small artillery, sensor probes, and camera drones). In addition, Commander, keep your troops at combat readiness with Mission Editor. Create new solo or multiplayer missions on either Port Arthur or the latest battlefield, Cermak. Mission Editor includes: • Terrain, overlay, and building palettes for maximum geographic and structural flexibility. • Toolbars that allow you to manipulate your map in a variety of ways. • Unit and vehicle palettes through which you can detail variants, orders, speed, and colors, to name a few. • Objectives tools through which you can mastermind a scenario and play it out.

  • Life Paths Updated.Pdf
    STAGE 1: EARLY CHILDHOOD The formative years are vital to a character's development. Many Attributes and personality traits are dramatically affected by this stage, and some paths even provide basic skills. Most important, the path chosen in this stage will have a significant impact on what paths the character can follow later. Time: Upon completion of this stage, the character is ten years old. Continuation: After following a single path at this stage, most characters will proceed to Late Childhood. Some affiliations permit a child to enter the workforce after Stage 1; in this case, proceed to the Real Life stage. You can also end the Life Path here and play your character as a child, in which case proceed to Assigning Attributes, Traits and Skills. Clan Characters: Trueborn characters must begin Stage 1 in a Clan Crèche. Freeborn characters start the Life Path based on their caste: scientist and merchant caste characters start on the White Collar Path, technician caste on Blue Collar, laborer caste on Blue Collar or Farm (player's choice), and dark caste on the Back Woods, Farm, Street or Blue Collar paths. If you want your character to be a freeborn warrior, he or she must begin the Life Path in one of the civilian castes. Free Skills: Regardless of Life Path, all player characters automatically receive 3 Skill Points to be divided as the players choose among their affiliation's primary and secondary Language Skills. Characters also receive 3 Skill Points toward Language/English (all 6 Skill Points can go to the Language/English Skill, if the player desires).
