| Rules: Mercenary Economies | ||
Mercenary EconomiesMercenary Teams may well be one of, if not the most flexible Team types in the Astral Dominion League. The Astral Dominion League may have an unlimited number of Mercenary Teams operating at any one time. Each of Mercenary Teams in the League will start the Campaign with 3 full Mech Regiments or 9 Battalions of completely RANDOMLY generated Mechs, selected from all of the available Inner Sphere Technology Mechs available in the game. New Mechs built by Mercenaries will be restricted to the available Mech Factories located on the Planet Outreach, and the Blueprints that those teams possess. The Maximum size, to which a Mercenary Team may grow will be unlimited, however Mercenary Teams will be given an additional 2 Regiments (540 Mechs) of “Mech Slots” which are explained in more detail, below. All Mercenary Teams in the League, as a group, control “Blackwell Heavy Industries”, which is a major Mech Production Facility located on the Planet Outreach, and although Mercenary Teams do not have a large source of RawM, they can always take RawM as payment, and apply it, in conjunction with Cash, towards Mech production as per the economy rules of any other Team. Each Mercenary Team in the League will be allocated their own “annex” of this Facility for their Team’s use. This annex is basically a small “mini” Manufacturing Facility in itself, and the production of one Mercenary Team will have no effect on the production of another. Each annex has its own Production Capacity. Mercenaries can accept any form of income that they wish, ranging from RawM, Salvage, or Cash, to any combination of the three that they deem to be the equivalent of their "Base Pay Scale" as detailed below. By their very nature, Mercenary Teams will be the only Teams in the League without “Objectives”. Instead they will generally facilitate other Teams in the accomplishment of their own Objectives. However the League Administrator may assign objectives as he sees fit, at any time. As the Campaign progresses, special tasks or objectives may be randomly assigned to Mercenary Units.
