(Answered) MechWarrior 3rd edition question
« on: 13 June 2011, 22:41:01 »
Do you have to roll on the events table for subpaths in a given pass through? For instance Sun-Zhang Academy, subpath DEST, subpath MW, subpath OCS.

Thanks

That's debatable, but let's face it; some folks gave them a pass because they were big and claimed to be Scottish.

Hello,

The only time you do not roll random events is when the subpath is mandatory (such as an AIT in military training). You would roll events for any Special Training subpaths (because they are optional) and suffer the -1 roll modifier that comes with it. Because OCS is also optional, you would also roll events there, taking a -2 for that. (Note: If your OCS event roll happened in the basic training phase, then OCS would get the -1 event roll modifier instead, while the Special Training gets the -2 event roll mod).

Hopefully that helps.

Thank you,
