Title: Master Unit List (MUL) Online Database - READ THE FIRST POST
Post by: Xotl on 04 June 2011, 14:26:40
Locked at 50 pages.  See the new thread at:

http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php?topic=47774.0




This thread is for all error reports and suggestions for the MUL online database, as found at:

http://www.masterunitlist.info/

Some notes - read before posting:

 - How do I log in?  You can't.  The login is only for site administrators.
 - As this covers suggestions as well as errors, discussion is allowed in this thread.
 - This database does NOT include any unit lacking a current Catalyst record sheet.  Units currently missing from the MUL almost certainly fall in this category.  Please do NOT report any such unit as missing.
 - Also not currently included is availability info for the Homeworld Clans, or any Dark Age availability for units not in TR 3085.
 - The entire Camospecs/Ironwind Metals feature is still being worked on (as in: the entire way it works could change).  We're not going to be dealing with individual issues on this for a while.
 - Corrections not touching on the above are welcome.  However, please provide a page number and/or direct quote to support your case.  "Faction X should have this because I said so" is less than helpful and will likely be ignored.
 - If you have corrections for a unit entry, include a direct MUL link to the unit in question in your report.
 - If it's a BV correction, please enclose or attach your entire BV calculation and how you made it (by hand, SSW, MML, Heavy Metal etc; include version number of any software used).

Please keep your posts concise and polite.  Posts that do not follow these rules will be deleted.  Thank you.

WHAT IS THE MUL?
- The Master Unit List is an official Catalyst product, one that Catalyst provides for free to its fans.  It is every bit as official as any TRO or sourcebook, if not more in many cases.

- The MUL undergoes continuous amount of fact check and is constantly being updated.  So unlike a static print TRO, the MUL is able to be updated should something change.  If a unit appears on the MUL, then enough validation was done to determine that "Yes, this unit existed and is not pure rumour."

- This does not mean that said unit will ever see its stats published: that is not the purpose of the MUL.  While the MUL does serve as a very useful resource for Battle Value, Alpha Strike stats, and image art, the MUL's primary purpose is to provide a list of all known units in the universe, and their faction availability.

- That something is not on the MUL does not mean it does not exist.  The concept of "the needs of fiction" still apply to the BattleTech universe.  Not every factory, vehicle and handgun in the universe has been documented, nor will they ever be.  The MUL is what we know: what has been documented in canon. 

- Sarna.net is not a canon source.  If Sarna lists a Mech and the MUL doesn't, then the MUL is most likely correct (though we certainly do make mistakes).  The MUL has access to internal information that Sarna does not.



Project Updates:
Inner Sphere BattleMechs of the Republic and Jihad Faction Lists are Gold Release
We are happy to announce that we have declared the Inner Sphere BattleMech lists on the Republic and Jihad era faction lists as "complete".  This means we will not be making wholesale changes to these faction lists anymore.  For all published units, the list is considered complete.

That is not to say there are not errors.  We will continue to make error corrections based on reported errata.  But because these are now considered complete, the bar for errata reporting is much higher.

I have found two units that seems a bit buggy:
Clan Space Marine Clan Snow Raven Warships Marines, ""
and
Clan Space Marine Clan Snow Raven Warships Marines, ??

- First, there is the garbage characters at the end ("" and ??).
- Second, neither units have any faction availability listed.
- Third, it is most like supposed to be only one unit as only one record sheet exists in RS3085 Cutting Edge.
- Fourth, "Warships Marines" does not sound right. Suggests a change to either "Warship Marines" or "Warship's Marines".

One Feature Request and one Usability Issue:

(feature request) Having to adjust the Name, Piloting & Gunnery of the Mechwarrior and see the BV increase as per the TechManual errata (as per the pilot skill chart) woud be very nice.

(usability issue) I tried this on my iPhone and it was difficult to read and work with--a mobile version would be very helpful too (in time, I know you've got a flood of requests).

PS: Also having Clan Pilots & Gunners having their appropriate default skills (example: Mechwarriors being gunner/piloting 3/4 by default) would make it easier too--as suggested on another thread, having the base Mech Values and the adjusted mech values on the mech search might be a good idea.

The following mechs have a dropship picture:
- Behemoth (Stone Rhino) (Standard)
- Behemoth (Stone Rhino) 2
- Behemoth (Stone Rhino) 3
This is obviously incorrect, and the right one should be found in TRO3055U.

EDIT:

The Goliath availability is strange with Clans having access to Goliaths during the Jihad, but not during the Republic. This does stand out since in many clans this is the only modern Inner Sphere mech they have access to.
The following mech - Clan pairings have been spotted that needs to be checked for correctness:
GOL-6H - Clan Wolf
GOL-5D - Clan Snow Raven
GOL-5W - Clan Snow Raven
GOL-2H - Clan Hell's Horses
GOL-3M - Clan Jade Falcon
GOL-4S - Clan Nova Cat
GOL-5S - Clan Nova Cat

The ability to select multiple criteria in the advanced search - already mentioned in the context of specifying two or more factions - would be wonderful if extended to all the advanced search criteria. Eg. it would be great if we could list equipment for both Introductory and Standard rules levels, or for 4th SW & Clan Invasion eras, at the same time.

But well done! A truly heroic challenge is being met.

1) Commando mech has a wrong picture (capellan infantry).
2) Ostwar 2M is not listed as an era specific/primitive design. it's  listed as a standard design. it's also listed as a star league design
while it should be an age of war design.
I guess the problem arises from the MUL PDF which has 2 Ostwar 2M in them.

Done, once I figured out how to actually do it I just had to apply it to all of the various field choices.  So now you can multi select on all the advanced fields!  I also added the ability to up the number of records displayed to 10, 25, 50, 75, or 100 and the new default is now 25.

This is so awesome. Thanks for all your hard work. [notworthy]


As a suggestion, it would be nice to be able to have more than 20 units in a force, and/or have the ability to save all search results to a file (for example: if I want to have a printed list of all mechs available to a faction ever).


Again, great work and major props.

Suggestion: Add the old MUL back to the Download page as an alternative source. [EDIT: I'm referencing the XL spreadsheet database, not the beta MUL released a few months back.]

Since the old MUL is the only comprehensive source for dates of manufacture, it's appropriate that the old MUL still be available for download. While some will definitely find this new database compelling, it creates a lot more work for people like myself who run period-specific campaigns, forcing you to read through the TRO to fish out this data. That defeats the entire purpose of an MUL, IMO.

Trebaruna  all versions (TR-XB, TR-XJ & TR-XL) seems to be available to all Inner Sphere and Clan faction in IS and also to all mercenaries.

This seems very odd, especially since TRO3085 states on page 106: "..., the Federated
Suns, Draconis Combine and Lyran Commonwealth have so
far chosen not to develop the Trebaruna. "
The deployment section of the same page does neither mention any foreign sales at all.

Suggestion:
change availability of
- Trebaruna TR-XB to Republic of the Sphere
- Trebaruna TR-XJ to Free Worlds League
- Trebaruna TR-XL to Capellan Confederation

Almost all Warhammer variants show the Warhammer 8D art, with the exceptions of the 4L, 6S, 11T, 9S, 9D, and 10CT.  Is it intentional to use the reseen art for the Unseen models, or should they be using the silouettes from TRO:3039/record sheets?

Interestingly, this means Warhammer WHM-X7 "The Lich" shows the Warhammer 8D, while the art is being used for the 10CT.

You didn't say what you think it should be.  Guessing you mean Sucession Wars.
While TR3025 (the original) says 2840 as the intro date, it also says it was ordered by the Star League by a small firm before the fall of the Star League.  The Star League didnt' exist in 2840.  Tr3039 changes this date to 2740 to match the intent of the text of 3025 that the Cicada was introduced just before the fall of the Star League.  Therefore the Star League era for the Cicada.

I'd really like to see availability searches be more inclusive. Especially as more units go extinct it would be useful to have - for instance- A search for Jihad era Taurian and Periph Availability show all units available during the Jihad, not just the units introduced in that era. I realize that you can do a multi era search, but that doesn't take into account extinction.

Level 2 technology was published in batches, each batch spanning one or more TROs (2750/3050/3055/3058 was the first batch, then 3060 was the second batch, 3067/PP was the third, and Total Warfare/TechManual was the fourth).  It would help me greatly if I could search for units according to which "batch" of technology they belong to. 

Easier:

One of the advanced search fields is "Sourcebook", whcih lets you specify what TROs and other books you want to look for.  Of course, it's going to include the later variants from the Upgrade TROs, but it'd be a fairly functional search.

Since "TRO" actually goes by record sheet book instead of TRO, each search gives you the whole range of tech.  Not at all functional for me.   :(

Era introduced does that though with slighty different breakdowns.
2750 would be Star League.
3050-3060 would be clan invasion.
3067 and PP are civil war.

Tried it.  Those eras don't divide as cleanly as you'd think, and different techs are still mixed in anyhow. 

Believe me, I did try to get this function by using the existing options.  Wouldn't have made the suggestion if I hadn't.  Still, thank you, I do appreciate the help. 

EDIT:  to be clear, I'm not talking about the release order of OOP books, that was just a handy illustration.  I'm talking about the in-universe release of weapons technology.  From ~3040-3058 the Inner Sphere only has regular lostech, and I'd like to find machines that are restricted to that technology.  I can spot (or handwave) an anachronistic 'Mech in a pool of identical technology more easily than I can, say, Streak SRM-4s or MRMs in a pool of "Clan Invasion Era" 'Mechs.  Even moreso with the Civil War and Jihad eras, where I'm less familiar with how the weaponry plays, it helps me if I can find all the machines that draw on the period's characteristic set of weapons. 

So I guess that my request boils down to dividing the Clan Invasion era into "Early" and "Late" options, and then creating a way to use the "production era" field to search for tech instead of introductory dates. /EDIT

Possible Error:

Not sure if this is intentional (and if so, not sure I understand it), but here it is.

Did a search for all unit types (all tech levels) linked to the Taurians. I come up with them having access to all of the other factions' infantry types form TRO 3085 (Lyran Royal Guards Heavy, Davion Firefighters, Explorer Corps XCT, etc.) I'm also not sure if this an issue just limited to the Taurians.

Edit: Also, the Royal Warhammer (6Rb) is available to the Taurians. I thought the MUL was meant to show "significant" numbers, whether that be salvage, importing, or production. They had significant salvage of the Royals that nobody knew about until the New Dallas core, just sitting around? Or are they producing Royals? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the MUL, but I do have to admit some confusion on that one.

Edit 2: Similar to the Royal Warhammer, the Taurians show the Demolisher II (MML) as available, but not the Demolisher II itself. Tagged wrong perhaps? Again, maybe I'm mistaken, but Demolisher II seemed pretty exclusive to the Lyrans.

Re: Infantry
These were given as wide a distribution as possible.  The specific unit name mentioned was basically ignored, and only the generic unti type used for determining availability.  The specific unit is treated as merely a "notable pilot" of that unit type.  There must be something in the stats of the unit that makes it unavailable.  Also, faction specific armor can be replaced with same stat armor available to another faction.  So as long as the faction has armor available with the same stats, the unit can be available to them (unless some other stat makes it impossible).

Examples.
Heavy Jump Infantry/DEST Heavy Response Team.  Everyone has Heavy Jump Infantry.  However, these use DEST Infiltration Suits.  So that would limit availability.
Clan Assault Infantry/Ghost Bear Heavy Solahma Infantry.  All the equipment is available to all clans, so this unit type is available to all clans, not just Clan Ghost Bear.
Any 100 person Marian Infantry is Marian only, as nobody else uses 100 person infantry units.
etc.

Unless there is a stat in the unit that is not reproducible by the faction, the unit can be available to that faction.

New face here, though I have been a Troll for some time.  Anywho, hello!  I'd like to say the MUL is an awesome acheivement, thanks to all the great folks who brought this into being for the BT community.  Nice piece of work!

So, before I get too far here, can I ask if the MUL will eventually be a "complete" list of BT units, or are there always going to be some units omitted?  It is a fantastic resource in any event, but I thought I'd ask.  Apologies if this has already been answered.

On the Getting Started page, the BattleTech Eras tab, is the following misspelling in the 3rd paragraph:

"we’ve pided BattleTech into six major eras."

I saw it mentioned earlier, but the remove unit button isn't working.  Also, I'm clicking on the Thor Prime and Thor A and it wasn't adding to My force.

Feature Request:  On the Advanced Search, selecting a faction would include the general inner sphere or general clan mechs.  For example, I select Jade Falcon and look up the Thor, I only see 4 variants (B, M, G, U).  The Prime version is not listed, but is included in clan in general.  If I select Jade Falcon, all the Jade Falcon specific and clan in general would appear.

The ability to select multiple criteria in the advanced search - already mentioned in the context of specifying two or more factions - would be wonderful if extended to all the advanced search criteria. Eg. it would be great if we could list equipment for both Introductory and Standard rules levels, or for 4th SW & Clan Invasion eras, at the same time.

Hold down the Shift key when selecting will allow you to pick a range (so clicking on "Age of War", then Shift+clicking on "Civil War" will select all the in-between as well.

Holding CTRL will allow you to pick and choose, so clicking Age of War, then CTRL+clicking Civil War will only select those 2.

That one would be rather difficult to do, currently.
We track the movement type of the vehicle in the sub type. If we would also track the omni flag there, we would have to have double the amount of sub types (not only for combat vehicles and all of their movement types, but also for VTOLs, submarines etc). It would make things far more complicated and confusing if you try to search for something that is not an omni, because you would have to look for all tracked vehicles and all tracked omni vehicles, if you want to see all tracked vehicles.

I know you're still working on this functionality, so treat this as a reminder for your to do list. :)
After a force has been saved, there should be a way to remove/rename/manage your saved forces.

Perhaps a whole "Manage Saved Forces" page instead of the area in the sidebar, so if I have a lot of forces the sidebar isn't so congested. Also, if I do have a lot of forces, you might want to put the Search on top of the forces list so that the search isn't all the way on the bottom.

Per the record sheet images, all three vehicles should use the original JHS3076 artwork here (http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/6996/moltkejhs3076.png).

Unrelated Question
Is there any way to get the MUL database not to try for partial matches via input into the search field?  I.e., to specify I only want a result on "Archer ARC-2R" and do not care that there's this nifty thing called the "Archer ARC-2Rb"?

Just a question, but currently the Gallant 8-0 is listed as being available to WoB during the Jihad and to pretty much everybody in the Dark Ages.
Quote
    Clan Diamond Shark/Sea Fox
    Clan Nova Cat
    Clan Wolf (in Exile)
    Inner Sphere Faction General
    Magistracy of Canopus
    Marian Hegemony
    Mercenary
    Outworlds Alliance
    Rasalhague Dominion
    Taurian Concordat

TRO 3085 would seem to indicate that the 8-0 was developed in house by the Federated Suns after the specs for the 7-0 were transfered .

Suggestion- Remove the Jihad availability entirely and consider removing it from the General lists.

Suggestion: include the price in C-Bills in the information listed for each unit.

I would have to second this request.  The MUL is great for tournament play, but for those of us running role playing campaigns the price of a unit is often of greater concern then it's battle value.

I realize it would be quite a large task.  To share the work, maybe the code could be altered to allow us to enter the C-bill cost.  (probably too big a security hole I'd imagine)

Is it really that unclear which is which?  The default of 4 and 5 doesn't help that?

IMHO, yes.

While maybe some new players try to explore the MUL, not familiar with the standard Piloting / Gunnery Settings
and also after "playing" with different values there is no default setting anymore.

I have to agree with Demos on this one.  It's probably clear enough to a veteran who thinks about it but a label, even something as simple as a G/P note, wouldn't be amiss.

Silent until now, but I'm gonna weigh in. I agree with the idea of including even a simple 'G/P'. The target audience for this isn't the veteran users, but the first timers. Doing so reduces the unfamiliarity with the 'process' of the online MUL and is one less reason they won't come back a second time. Veterans won't be irked by its inclusion and newcomers will have a proverbial lightbulb that glows that much brighter.

The CRD-4L is exactly the same as the CRD-4D.  So the CRD-4L Record Sheet is in RS3085 PP, it's just called the CRD-4D.  We haven't found a good way to note this yet.  VTR-9D and VTR-9K is the same thing.

A  similar problem exists with the THE-F & THE-S Thorn. RS3039u contains the sheet for the THE-S which is identical to the THE-F for which no sheet exists. I would suggest a note in the source column where the source TRO(RS) are listed stating the designation the mech is included in the RS under eg. for the THE-F TR3039 (RS3039u - sheet labelled THE-S).

Not sure if this is the right place but the PRC-1N Porcupine is noted in the MUL as having a BV of 870 but the sheet has a BV of 880 (RS3055Uu). Will also post this to the errata for RS3055Uu as I am unsure which is correct.

The Atlas II apparently didn't go extinct among the Clans, just the Inner Sphere.  They were pulled out of the Brian Caches periodically and one was even used at Tukayyid according to TRO3075.  TRO3050U notes that the Clans have but don't use the EXT-4D.  Given the way that's worded, I'd imagine they lost access after the Jihad.  As to the Marauders, we simply don't have information on them for the Clans.

Hello, I have a question regarding the Master Unit List tool on www.classicbattletech.com (which is awesome by the way!)

In the "My Force" window, for each unit is a drop-down menu for Gunnery and Piloting (ranges 0 - 7). After selecting the appropriate skills for a unit and clicking "save", it adjusts the BV.

When you add an infantry platoon or point, the drop-down under Piloting remains. I notice that changing the Piloting value for infantry units also changes their BV after clicking "save".

Is this actually the Anti-'Mech skill given that infantry do not have a piloting skill?

Considering the history of this mech, and the fact that it is fluffed to be based on a design the Bears rejected in favor of the Mad Dog, it needs to have the era of configs Prime, A, B, and C set to Late Succession Wars (since Mad Dog has that era). The record sheets (RS3060u) lists D as Clan Invasion and E as Civil War.

TR 3085 p190.

Hi. I saw that, but it doesn't really help define what is the official configuration of a fire-armored Elemental. Removing the AP mount and SRM-2 reload nets 25kg, but converting to 10 pts of fire-proof armor requires 50kg...unless the unit drops to 9 pts fire-proof armor? I don't see how else it could be done, but unless I see something different in print, what am I to assume?

The situation with either the flamer or micro-pulse laser is even more undefined as they are lighter than the AP Gauss (heaviest of the listed weapons options).

The Record Sheets show the final sheets for the units.  That may help you figure out what you are looking for, but the MUL can't change what is or is not in the Technical Readout.

Bushwacker BSW-X2 has Faction Availability as Unique. Though this design has no fluff that I'm aware of, I'm guessing it should be a standard refit rather than a unique design. I would guess it should be available to the FedCom states, etc.

Ostroc OSR-2C (Michi) has Faction Availability as Unique / Draconis Combine. Should be Unique / Extinct to match other Unique 'Mechs from the current Historical range.

Zeus (Leonidas) has Faction Availability as Unique. Should probably be Unique / Extinct to match other Unique 'Mechs from the current Historical range.

Battlemaster BLR-1G (Red Corsair) has Faction Availability as Unique. Should probably be Unique / Extinct to match other Unique 'Mechs from the current Historical range.

Stalker STK-3F (Jagawen) has Faction Availability as Unique. Should probably be Unique / Extinct to match other Unique 'Mechs from the current Historical range.

Highlander HGN-732 (Colleen) has Faction Availability as Unique / Word of Blake. Should be Unique / Clan Blood Spirit.

Found that some "General Inner Sphere" Mechs, maybe more, do not show up if you search by faction.  Example: the Avatar Omni did not show up when I searched Kurita units but is under General Inner Sphere units.  If this how it should work, I would suggest to explain that in the getting started page.  Also what in all Does General Inner Sphere included?  Just Major Factions? Or do Mercs get those units too?

If you drill down into the entries for the various configurations of the Achileus Light Battle Armor, it notes the unit as weighing 1 ton in the brief stat block next to the suit image. The mass is shown correctly as 0.75 in the Tons column of the search list results.

The Griffin GRF-6S (Francine) should be listed as WD (and not extinct until the Dark Age).
The LCT-6M, the one in Wolf and Blake is a captured WoB unit.  There is nothing (in that entry in Wolf and Blake) that suggests the LCT-6M exists in any numbers outside of salvage and the MUL, to maintain some sort of sanity, does not list salvage unless there is a source that specifically states the faction has the unit in numbers.   The MUL does not list everything a faction might have, it lists what is expected in some number (multiple units in multiple forces - regiments/clusters/etc) with that faction.  Otherwise CC would need Falconers and Rifleman and Jagermechs, FS would need Vindicators and Thunders and DC would need Banshees and Zeuses (ok, what is the plural of Zeus?) and the list would become meaningless pretty quick.

There's something wrong with the adjusted BV calculator. I'm not sure of the full details, but it always gives a higher BV for a mech with a 5 gunnery 4 piloting skill pilot than the base BV.

Also, the Penthesilea isn't listed as being available to the Magistracy of Canopus.

It's supposed to do that.  In this PDF (http://bg.battletech.com/errata/CAT35002_TechManual_Errata_2.1.pdf), look at the chart on the bottom of page 37.  Base BV is calculated using gunnery 4/piloting 5.  I'm not sure I'd rate a gunnery 5/piloting 4 pilot as better, personally, but it's correct as far as the rules go.

Also, the Penthesilea isn't listed as being available to the Magistracy of Canopus.

I could've sworn that had been reported already but apparently it hasn't.

Titan II TI-2P -- record sheet, TRO, and SSW 0.6.76 gives a BV of 2143, while the MUL has 2139. It looks to be that the MUL might have an error.

Von Rohrs VON 4RH-6 lacks era. Should be either Age of War or Star League.

Helepolis HEP-1H has BV according to the older record sheet in RS3075 unabridged. This design was changed in the newer product XTRO: Primitives 1, and hence is supposed to have a BV calculated according to the newer better armored record sheet. (The newer record sheet says 1055 BV, SSW 0.6.76 gives 1063 for it.)

Well, how about introducing a "never built" era to be more explicit about designs that never progressed beyond the drawing board?

Also, speaking about units that lacks an era, the following Battlemechs without an era does also show up on a search:
- Clint CLNT-2-4T
- Hunchback HBK-5SG
- Stooping Hawk Prime, A, B, C, D, E

We put 3068 because we have listed an older version that has no record sheet as the original.  Though I think we'll have to review that, it seems to be based on the idea of using the TR2750 stats as the original.

I don't have TRO:2750 with me right now but I am quite certain that the 2750 Fury and the Fury (standard) are supposed to be identical.

Since I'm here I guess, a bunch of the Unseens have Project Phoenix pics instead of the silhouettes. Shadowhawk, Thunderbolt, Locust, Griffin, Crusader and the Battlemaster.

Question
The Phoenix BattleMech has two introduction dates in the Era Digest: Age of War book with the following page references:

2474 [11]
2520 [11]

The MUL has the PX-1R debuting in 2520 and the PX-3R and -4R debuting in 2580. Was there some form of errata published negating the Era Digest's information?

If it's wrong, it's wrong, no matter where it shows up.  Errata for Age of War will remove that reference unless I'm told otherwise; presumably the MUL will follow suit.

It also states on page 11 that the Rim Worlds Republic "introduced modern technology" in BattleMechs in 2503. It does seem odd that they'd take 78 years to debut the PX-3R and -4R in 2581, especially since it's done in the middle of the Reunification War dates.

Does the removal of the 2520 date affect the 2503 date then?

That goes beyond straight errata or online MUL questions and into Ask The Developers territory.  All I can add is the very real possiblity that "modern Battlemech technology" could be just that, the technology: your quote does not say it was homegrown mechs.  As such, there's plenty of room for that reference to mean either imported tech grafted on to existing primitive mechs, or the importation of whole (non-primitive) mechs from the Inner Sphere.  This follows a historical pattern where anyone other than the inventor of the technology often acquires examples (in whole or in part) before taking the much more labourious step of building their own from scratch (which requires a painstakingly-created infrastructure that must be created out of nothing).

Some factions have access to the RL armed version but not the SRM armed one and vice versa. Also the BV of both must be changed of course (right now the FS-9C still has the BV of the P and vice versa).

For example the Marians use only the RL Firestarter but if this swap is ignored have the Circinan one on their list- and it has the wrong BV as well.

For campaign purposes, it really helps to know what was introduced in a specific year range. i.e.: 2500 - 2600. How much work would it be to create such a search function or export the MUL to a searchable PDF?

Some minor issues:
Hunchback 6S is listed as an aerospace fighter and it's rules level is listed as introductory.
Several other designs are listed as introductory  instead of standard or advanced: stalker 6M, Hunchback 6N, Shogun 2F Trisha, Zeus Leonidas, Panther 10KA, Zeus 9S-DC (advanced),Grand Dragon 5K-DC (Advanced), Orion 1M-DC (advanced), Cyclops 11A-DC (advanced).
Grasshopper 5N and Trebuchet 3C are missing.

There seems to be a mix up in the Orion department:
Orion 1-MB is listed as a Kurita design while the 1-MC is listed as a Marik design.
It seems mixed since the MB uses a light gauss rifle (a common  FWL weapon of the period) while the MC uses MRMs and C3 ( common DC weapons of the period).

Wight 2SC/3SC is listed as a FWL design but according to TRO:3075 page 70 it's produced by Starcorps on Son Hoa,

Thunder 9Nr: correct, changed.
Wight 2SC/3SC: "Strangely enough, though Starcorps is known to be manufacturing the Wight in significant numbers, it cannot be verified whether any have been sold to date.  Whether Starcorps is selling to a hidden party, stockpiling the designs for mass sales at a later date, or building its own personal army is unknown at this time"
As of 3075, nobody has the 2SC or 3SC.  There is nothing that says the Lyran Alliance has them, and implies that either the LA doesn't want them, or Starcorps doesn't want to sell them to the LA, or at the very least, had some reason to not sell them to the LA yet (as of 3075).    As for why FWL after 3075?  That's a suggestion that is open to further reveals from the Developers/Writers in future products.  (And we may very well be wrong.)  But it represents our best guess as of right now.

While I understand that you won't have everything done at once, what is your priority ranking? What kinds of units do you plan to do first, and so on?

For BattleForce stats?  There's two way priorities happen for those.  1) Somebody yells "Hey, we're doing Quick Strike cards for Technical Readout X next!"  And then I make sure I'm cut up on all of those.  So XTR's are likely to be very, very far away, while TR3085 and its infantry is likely closer.  In very vague, general terms.  IE. Subject to developers.  2) I really feel like X needs to be done.  Because really nice people ask (Catalyst Agents need for convention, random forum poster asks nicely, etc) or because my pride is hurt that X is missing.
Most happen according to #2 so far, because we haven't done that many Quick Strike card products yet.  Hopefully now that the work is actually useful for something other than sitting on my laptop, I'll start looking at filling in gaps again.

Correct.  The plans were again available during the Jihad, and CPLT-C1s throughout the Inner Sphere were upgraded.  (Not saying how many were upgraded, just that they were available through the Inner Sphere).  The same is true of many other Royal designs, especially those in the New Dallas Memory Core (TR3075).

The Kabuto, it was in TRO:3060. Near the image with the stack of stats starting with "tonnage" going down it shows that it is available during the "clan invasion" era. Intro date is given as 3059. Below it, it states that the clan invasion era lasts until 3061. The far right of the screen shows the mech as being available to the DC and GhostBears as of 3068 "Jihad era"


The link to the 7B variant shows the 7B's intro date as being 3068, which is also shown as the start of the jihad era. I am not sure what happened to the GhostBears in the jihad era, so if they were removed, or lost availability to the design, then it would be correct that only the DC has access to the 7B. But, that might need to be fact checked by someone.

[Ghost Bear has Kabuto A but not Kabuto B.

Having access to one variant does not necessarily have anything to do with access to another.   Ghost Bear doesn't make Kabuto's, they don't automatically get access to new variants of it.

I am not sure this qualifies; the Akuma AKU-1X has low res artwork when compared to the AKU-1XJ.

Also, when I looked up the No-Dachi, a very strange variant came up. The No-Dachi NDA-1KC (which has no BV, and no rules level). The No-Dachi NDA-1K is also missing its rules level.

AKU-1XJ and NDA-1K fixed.
NDA-1KC, is correct as is. It will get BV, rules leve, etc when it gets a record sheet.

Thanks again for all the fine work guys!

Clan Medium Battle Armor-
There is both a (Naval) "B„r" and a (Naval) "Bär" model with the same BV, intro date, etc. The "B„r" in the only one listing faction availablity.

Thanks!  Fixed.

The BattleForce stats for the Elemental (Fire) (AP Gauss) configuration gives the wrong damage values, it should be 2 for both Short and Medium, not 1.

The APGRs average 9 damage per attack (3 out of 5 APGRs hit, 3 damage each), and the SRM2(OS) averages 1.2 damage per attack (6 out 10 SRMs hit, 2 damage each, result multiplied by 0.10 due to being one-shot, result rounded to 2 decimal places as per SO p360).

The final Damage Value would thus be 10.2 divided by 10, rounded up as per SO p 360, so 1.02 rounded up to 2.

Kit Fox W has an intro year of 3054, even if it does show up in 3051 in Blood Legacy both in the Homeworlds and on Outreach. The relevant chapters are 10 and 16. From this we can conclude that it should be at least available in that year, but considering where it shows up, it is even more likely that it needs an intro-date that is before the Wolf's Dragoons' last supply run. This means that the Era should most likely be Late Succession War.

Suggested Solution:
Change Uller (Kit Fox) W Era to Late Succession War, and give it a year from the 2900s or very early 3000s.

- Tempest TMP-3MA, and 3G do not have any Battleforce Stats. (I also noted the Tempest TMP-2M has no BV and no rules level, but I only assume it is much like the earlier No-Dachi I noticed, so I am doubtful that this is a report item.)

- The Argus 4D has low res art when compared to the other Argus variants.
- The Fafnir FNR-5 has low res artwork.
- Barghest BGS-4T has the wrong artwork (it is showing the 1T artwork when it should have the same art as the 4X).
- The Lao Hu LHU-2B has low res artwork as well...
- The Legacy LGC-01 has low res artwork too...

Ok... I'm going to stop with the artwork stuff now. It seems a lot of the base variants of the mechs from 3067 have a low res (thick black lines, low detail) artwork when compared to their later variants. I was looking for more Battleforce stats that were missing, I thought I saw some, but could remember the mechs... instead I found artwork.

MAD-3D,WVR-6M,LGB-12C, Ravager Assault Battle Armor added (back) to Marian Hegemony.

Highlander HGN-733C/733P: the HGN-733 is only available to the CC,DC,LA.  The 733C/733P were mistakenly given to a much wider faction availability, and were fixed to not be more available than the model they are based on.
Demolisher II (MML): similar to Highlander.  It was limited to the same factions the Demolisher II (Standard).
Neither of these were aimed at the Marian Hegemony in particular, they were just changes made to make the MUL consistent with itself in what it was saying.

3085 Infantry: Units are defined by their record sheets.  This limits the factions that can use specific infantry units based on their organizing of infantry.  Marian Hegemony can only use infantry sheets built to its organization of infantry, and other factions can't use MH infantry.  Comstar/Word of Blake can only use CS/WB infantry, and other factions can't use their infantry.  This doesn't mean the Marian Hegemony doesn't have firefighting infantry or whatever other type, it means it doesn't have them as detailed on that specific record sheet.    We did assume equipment swaps that wouldn't affect stats (faction specific armor for another faction, the faction could use it if they had an available equivalent that wouldn't change the record sheet).  But MH can't use 28 trooper infantry units, etc. 

Aeron Strike VTOL (BAP): is not available to Marian Hegemony in the Jihad era.  It was introduced in 3084.  We will be changing the Jihad era to end in 3085 (therefore adding the Ravager from 3084 to MH), but within the first year of its introduction MH does not have it yet.  In the Republic era, the Aeron Strike VTOL will be widely available, but that whole era needs work.

The MUL is a very good tool (thanks CGL for that). The advance search engine is great to find which mech each faction have. Another thing in this game that need special mech grouping is the c3 system. It would be great to have a searchfor c3in the MUL.

Agreed - FANTASTIC tool! And also agreed - I would be very grateful if you could add another list to the Advanced Search allowing you to search on Specials.

I need to get lists of mechs that have TAGs and those that have ECMs, both with availability to Mercs and in the Clan era. Right now I can apply most of the filter I need, but then need to open each Mech that gets returned to see whether it has a TAG and/or ECM.

Adding this Specials list to Advanced Search would be very helpful!

The search defaults to listing only those units with BV.  There's only one Leopard with a BV currently and it's not Periphery General.  If you uncheck the box that says "only units with BV" when you search for leopard and periphery general, it will show the standard leopard and leopard cv.

New features.

Search now has boxes to enter a range for intro dates.  3000 start to 3039 end for example.

Search results now place an asterisk next to results that are the featured unit in a sourcebook.  WHM-6R for example is the Warhammer in TR3039 that gets a full Technical Readout entry. 
The unit page will have a box that says "this unit is featured in Technical Readout 3039".   So you can know before purchasing a source if it's a full TR entry or not.
 
Search for BattleForce abilities.  The search now has a box where you can enter a BF ability to search for.  ECM, C3S, C3M, AMS, etc.  This search the specials string for the text.  AM (for anti-mech) will return results that include AMS (anti-missile system) for example.

Mercury MCY-98:
This mech has according to MUL available to IS General, Merc General, Wolf's Dragoons and Kell Hounds. However, according to page 238 of TRO3039 it is supposed to be extinct.

Suggested solution:
Change availability to Extinct.

Commando COM-2D & Commando COM-2Dr:
The COM-2Dr has an Inner Sphere General availability, the COM-2D has not. The TRO entries for the Commando suggests that it has not spread to other Successor States, so the the lack of Inner Sphere General seems to be not correct.

Suggest solution:
Give the COM-2Dr same availability as the COM-2D.

Hitman HM-1r:
This mech has for some reason gained Capellan Confederation availability during the Jihad. This seems strange since there is no HM-1 availability for the Capellan Confederation.

Suggested solution:
Remove Capellan Confederation for HM-1r availability.

TRO 3067 states that the new line of Marauders was introduced in 3067, placing them in the Civil War era.

MUL only places the MAD-5L in 3067, put the other Marauders are in 3068, including the 5R, 5T, 7D, and 9M.  This places them in the Jihad era.

Considering the destruction of several factories during the Jihad not long after 3068, is this intended?  It would give the latter four models very little to no production time, meaning almost none extant during the following years.

One thing that would be great for the MekWars crew out there would be the ability to use the unit list to automatically create basic faction lists.

The feauture would only neeed to take the unit selection and put them in a big file done like this:

1 unit model.mtf (mechs)
1 unit model.blk (the rest)

So, for example, I set the search parameters to show only the light mechs of the Periphery General selection. Afterwards I click the "save as mekwars list" buttom and I would be asked to save a .txt which will look like this:

1 Locust LCT-1E.mtf
1 Stinger STG-3R.mtf
1 Stinger STG-3P.mtf
1 Stinger STG-5T.mtf
1 Thorn THE-S.mtf
1 Wasp WSP-1A.mtf
1 Commando COM-2D.mtf

That is completly MekWars-capable and thus the server admins could change the numbers (chances for pulling units) as they wish afterwards in the txt itself. A tip for the would be admins: that list there should be saved as "Periphery_light.txt" to be pulled on the light factories of a faction called Periphery, for example. (by the way that is the true list above)

...

And a second thing: there is no way to separate the lists by "availability JIHAD" and "availability DA"

I noticed an Atlas AS7-S3 listed in the MUL.  I'm not familiar with this unit and it's not described in the "variants" section of TRO: 3050 Upgrade.  It also has the same BV as the AS7-S2.  It looks like it was meant to be the AS7-S2 and something happened.

Also, I'd like to suggest listing the manufacurer and factory location of each 'mech variant, if known.  It would also help to make these items searchable.  I'd hope this would be generally helpful and useful info, but I can cite the specific reason it would be helpful to me as an example.  In short, I'm trying to get a list of all of the 'mechs produced by Defiance Industries and Coventry Metal Works for a Time of War campaign that I'm looking to put together.

Thanks.

Satyr and Satyr 4 shows up in the Raven Alliance RAT in FM3085, but does not show up as Raven protos in the MUL.

Suggested solution:
Add Satyr and Satyr 4 for Ravens.

A Raven front-line unit has a 10/36 chance of getting a Deimos in the RAT in FM3085, which implies that the Deimos has been in production for quite some time. However, the MUL has intro dates of 3085-86 for the Deimos.

Suggested solution:
Subtract five years from the Deimos intro dates, giving 3080-81 dates, which will give it time to become common enough in the Raven touman, while still not conflicting with the TRO entry about early 3080 rumors.

No, it just conflicts with TRO3085 Supplemental's direct statement on page 54 that it was introduced in early 3085.  The same text indicates that the Deimos saw a large production run and that there's one in nearly every Cluster with expectations of it being the mainstay Raven assault OmniMech, so clearly there's going to be a lot of them floating around.  Considering that RATs are not indicative of rarity, a point writers and the Line Developer have stated multiple times in the past, I'd call it factional flavor and move on.

Well, they all appear on the FM 3085 RAT for the Magistracy. Normally I wouldn't say this is enough to put them on the MUL, but all the designs on the Marian 3085 RAT are on the MUL. So what's good for the Roman is good for the Canopian.

Falcon FLC-4N:

I doubt the validity of the IS General, Kell Hounds and Mercenary availability during the Jihad of this design.
This is due to the following sections from TRO3039, page 248:

"However, the loss of the Stormvanger
Assemblies production line on Hesperus II put an end to
new production, and numbers dwindled during the course
of the Succession Wars. Of course ComStar possessed a
number of Falcons amongst its secret cache of weapons
on Terra, but as far as the Inner Sphere was concerned the
design had all but vanished."

"The appearance of Wolf’s Dragoons in 3005 marked
the return of the Falcon to the battlefields of the Inner
Sphere."

"After the Fourth Succession War a number of Falcons
appeared in the Draconis Combine. Thought to have been
salvaged from the fighting between the Ryuken and Wolf’s
Dragoons on Misery, these ’Mechs had actually been se-
cretly supplied to House Kurita by ComStar."
   
"The Falcons that remain in the Inner Sphere are al-
most all extensively repaired, many of them becoming
hybrids with arms, legs, and weapons taken from other
BattleMechs. Only Wolf’s Dragoons have access to new,
undamaged ’Mechs of this type."

From this I would conclude that existing Falcons in the Inner Sphere when the Dragoons appeared where mostly of frankenmech types, and are rapidly heading for extinction, and that only Wolf's Dragoons, Draconis Combine, Comstar and Word of Blake should have access to them. Maybe also the Clans?

Suggested solution:
Change Jihad availability of FLC-4N Falcon to: Wolf's Dragoons, Draconis Combine, Comstar and Word of Blake.

Many humble thanks for all the awesome work you guys have done for Battletech <3

I have request considering the main unit list.

We have discovered that playing a longer campaing using C-Bills is awesome fun. It brings a totally new aspect to your game when your main goal is to achieve the best cost efficiency in your army, but currently it's a bit a nuissance that several desingers software seem to give you different costs and the  costs vary depending on your sources. So it would be really really cool if you could add the prizes to the main unit list, and save a huge amounts of time from our gamemaster (guess who that is ;) )

Thanks

Also this one is kind of big, but doesn't affect too many units.

All units with a 3081 date have the Jihad Image, but the Jihad Era ends in 3080, so all of these need to be changed to the Republic/Dark Ages image.

Jihad era is being changed to go through 3085.  (due to the FM:3085 "wrapping" up the Jihad era).  So the images/era are correct, there's still a lot of availabilities that need to be fixed.  (unit intro'ing 3082-3085 need Jihad availabilities now).  And the legends describing the Jihad/republic eras needs to be changed.  This is all in process.
3049 is an exception.  The decision was made to make 3049 as Clan Invasion even though event wise it's not Clan Invasion until 3050.  This needs to be noted somewhere in the MUL as well.

No.  The era is not being redefined.  Only in the case of putting an era label on a unit, we will "nudge" 3049 units in to the Clan Invasion era.
If a short story, novel or sourcebook were to be written about events in 3049, it would still be Succession Wars.

Nobody cares about Oberon :).  And even that wasn't until very late in 3049 (August?).
We're not breaking the eras down in to months. 
in the case of any intro year, if you're basing something in the year of it's introduction (or even a few years before or after), you'd still want to check the actual source material for when/where it was available.

So you can have a Succession War sourcebook with Clan Invasion `Mechs in 3049? This seems kind of silly, what's the point of doing it this way? You've defined the era, why not use the definition? If you're going to push it back to 3049, why not 3048? Or if you're pushing the Clan Invasion era back a year, why not all the other eras back?

3049 is a single exception in correlation to RS volumes. The majority of designs labelled 3049 - especially on the Clan side - are directly relevant to KLONDIKE and not the time before.

That is the bottom line reason for the 3049 special case.

I assume the other questions are rhetorical?

If you're going to push it back to 3049, why not 3048? Or if you're pushing the Clan Invasion era back a year, why not all the other eras back? Civil War is 3062 to 3067, so why not label all units with a 3061 date as Civil War?

Why [snip quoted arguement]?  Because that's what I was told to do.  You reported a change, I pointed out why we wouldn't be making the change.
Longer answer?  It's a compromise.  And like most compromises, it's not perfectly logical because it's a compromise between two competing "logics."

Its cool. I just asked for a clarification, since it seems rather silly. (After all, you can make the argument that 3061 designs have more in common with the Civil War than they do the Clan Invasion as well). Since it seems set in stone I'll quietly wander back to the main forums :)

The primary reason is the Exodus road. A number of Clan designs were first available in late 3049, but were then loaded up onto ships and didn't see real combat until they arrived in the Inner Sphere.

These designs really did not belong in the Succession Wars era (Clan Golden Century), despite their construction dates being 3049. So Catalyst development chose to make this exception to deal with these anomalies. It was preferable to changing the construction years for the designs in question.

Or, as has been mentioned, we made a compromise to make things work for the many.

Frustration: Several years with the MUL now has lead me to the realization that while the MUL is great at a great many things, therapy for BattleTech fans it is not.  My non-professional advice is take a break, do something non-BattleTech related for a short while, and let the stress meter empty out. 

RS3039Uu BF stats: I have not redone them since RS3039 Unabridged was rereleased.   Looking over the first two, those were both corrections made in the rereleased RS3039 Unabridged.  (Though the missing EE's don't have that excuse). Glancing over the rest of the list, the only thing I think is not correct in your list is the IF1.   LRM5s are 3 damage, which rounds normally (IF is a round normal as of the 2nd printing of SO), after dividing by 10, to 0, so they get no IF.

These 2 units, the
Mówáng-class Courier at http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4680
and
MÓTUÖ CHË NO. 2 at http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4681

Have invalid names, due to either URL encoding or the database doesn't like them (or they were just put in all hokey).

Also, all 13 of the standard APC models from TRO3039/RS3039 are missing.  The HEAVY versions are there, but their BV seems to be for their lighter counterparts.

The name of http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5066 is incorrect, should be Škoda with a tilde thing on it.

http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4827 and http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4828 should be "Protectorates" with an S, according to TRO:Vehicle Annex.

The Hesoid, http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4322, should have 4 variants not just the 1, as it has 4 listed configurations in TRO:VA page 36.

The Corx thing at http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4011/Corx-Mobile-Tunner-Miner should be "Tunnel" minor, not "Tunner".

The slipper hover car series is 1.5 tons, not 2.0 tons (though the "ZX is listed as larger and roomier)
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5079
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5080
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5081
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5082
In fact, since we have zero data on the 3 variants, plus the other 3 listed (Feicui, Excelsior, and Windstreak), and without a record sheet to back them up, and since other units are often mentioned in TROs, it may be worth considering to simply remove all 6 extra entries until *something* more is printed at some point.  If they aren't removed, the Windstreak has "Z70" twice in the name.

The Adelante is interesting.  When I search everything in the TRO:Vehicle Annex, it doesn't come up, but it does have the annex listed on the page http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3669/Adelante-PassangerCargo-Train.  On the same note, this is an omni-train, and has a primary and A-D configurations, but they are not in the MUL at all.  And also, "Passanger" should be "Passenger".

The http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4422/Kallon-Industries-Nolan-RML-4-47 should have the designation of RML-447, according to multiple listings in TRO:VA.

http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3994 should be just "CPK-6", not "CPK-65".

It appears the "Thumper TAV-1" is mixed with the "Thumper", recommend reversing the names to match the record sheets.  http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3212 and http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3210

http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3661 and http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5463 are the same, the 2nd has no data so it should probably be removed.

Some omni units have the <BASE> unit in the MUL, while others don't (as an example Malak has <BASE>, Cougar doesn't).  For consistency it should just be one or the other, and I'd recommend removing the <BASE> configs as they are unconfigured..... unless the desire is to have cargo transports with the BF2 stats.

The 3 SM1 tank destroyers, http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/2971, http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/2972, and http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/2973, all have the designation (SM1, etc) in the name twice.

And that is how you make writers hate you :)

Some more:

There are 2 Hiryo Armored Infantry Transport "Hound" entries.  The stats are the same, but one is named ?HOUND" while the other "HOUND".  Only one has BF2 stats.  Recommend deleting entry 1529 and changing the ? to " for entry 3665.
Recommend remove the word "ProtoMech" from entry 4979 and 4870 for consistency.
Recommend changing name of 4541 to "Luficer III" to match TRO Prototypes.
Recommend changing name of 5344 to Vengeance DC, not PC.

3737 and 3739 are both the same unit, with the same BV, but different images and introduction dates.  Not sure what is up with that.

The GRM-01A Garm (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/1189/Garm-GRM-01A)'s availability looks a little off.  Per TRO3060 page 82, it was sold to unspecified Periphery and mercenary customers in addition to the AFFC.  That suggests that, at a minimum, it should be available to mercenaries and possibly the Canopians or Outworlders.  And given the manufacturer, it's a little odd that the Capellans wouldn't have captured enough to wind up with it, yet the Combine has.

It was in the *original* RS3039, page 180 or so, and like many variants the TRO would be the one with the machine the variant based on.  However, it was probably *forgotten* in RS3039 Unabridged.

When it comes to missing units I haven't been too sure what to provide.  Anybody want to chime in on that?

I am pretty sure the Slyph, both Standard and Upgrade from TRO3058 Upgrade should be in there.  Same with the groundhog exoskelton from TRO Vehicles (as 6 variants, 1 per glove type in the modular equipment adapters like standard).  The Rescue Ailette from VA is also missing, and of course lots of units from more recent products (mostly XTRO's) I'd be happy to list if desired.

If it is confirmed, you can enter it into the errata for that product.

I'll mention it, as the Crockett is the ONLY TRO2750 mech to NOT be in TRO3039, but there was a record sheet for it in RS3039, so it seems it was missing the TRO.  However the unit *IS* in RS3039 (not the unabridged version), so for MUL purposes it really should be listed as being in there, until a more recent product updates it. 

I don't question things like this to TPTB, as when I have in the past the answers are far more like to be "we meant to do that" rather than an "oops" :)

If you feel a unit is missing. You can post it here, with all supporting documentation. If it's something clear, then the review process will cover it. If it is something that requires a ruling, then it goes up internal channels (which ultimately lead to the Lead Dev).

Important note, no documentation (Book, exact page #), no research. There is already a mountain of internal research going so the MUL reviewers need all the data you have.

And I'd note that the Mercury and Exterminator are also not present.  The relevant page numbers are 62 (MCY-98 Mercury), 150 (EXT-4A Exterminator), and 180 (CRK-5003-0 Crockett); all references to the older HMP-generated RS3039, not the print or Unabridged version.  I don't have TRO3025R to give you any page numbers from there.

Arguably, given their non-appearance in TRO3039, the units should instead fall into RS3050 Upgrade Unabridged, which does cover their respective types.

This forum is only for changes/suggestions/errata to the Master Unit List.  Not for what should or shouldn't be in a Record Sheet or other publication.  The CRK-5003-0 has been corrected to TR3025r and no (current) Record Sheet.  The MCY-98 was already listed that way, and the EXT-4A is in RS3050Uu-CSL.

Note: There does seem to be a bug where if there's no image for the book, the website doesn't show the Technical Readout on the unit's page.  But if you search for TR3025 Revised, you find the MCY-98 and CRK-5003-0 listed.

A number of the generic APCs have introduction dates that are far too early.  The LTV-4 is, per XTRO Primitives Volume II, the first modern combat vehicle and the first ground unit with standard armor to my understanding.  The affected units are linked to below.

To summarize: Each standard and MG model is ES (Early Spaceflight).  SRM models are 2370.  LRM variants are 2400.  All of these appear to be early.

Panther PNT-12K:
While this unit is represented in the MUL, it is not in RS3085 unabridged, AND neither in RS3050Uunabridged or RS3039unabridged.
The only reference to this unit that I have managed to find is the following sentence from TRO3085:
"The PNT-12K2 is actually a variant of the PNT-10K2 not the -12K, replacing the -10K2’s SRM racks with a single MRM
10 rack, using the same CASE-protected left torso space for ammo."
So to me it looks like a typo, and that it should be referring to the -12A, and that the -12K does not exist.

Suggested solution:
Remove the Panther PNT-12K from the MUL, or in case someone rules that it does exist after all, just remove its BV, record sheet and Battleforce stats.

The PNT-12K and PNT-12K2 are identical in stats.  The PNT-12K2 is a refit of PNT-10K2's to the PNT-12K stats. 
See http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php/topic,5927.msg151445.html#msg151445.
The PNT-12K was from RS MWDA.    (The weapon placement is slightly different in Rs 3085, but that's intended to be a correction for the MWDA RS as well).

Eventually we'll have a note on the MUL entries were the RS is being listed because it's an exact match (and therefore the RS volumes don't print a duplicate).  VTR-9K/9D is another one.  but the PNT-12K does exist.

I'm not sure there's anything that says the HTM-27T Daniel is a refit. Perhaps it was the prototype for the eventual production model HTM-27T.   The MUL's intro dates are generally their service dates, not prototype dates.

Annihilator ANH-1E:

The design has an introduction year (3028), but no era.

Suggested solution:
Set Era to Late Succession War.

All of the Galleon family is using the Unseen artwork.  The TRO3058U (http://www.sarna.net/wiki/File:Galleon-Maxwell.png) art would be more appropriate in this instance.

At a minimum, it needs to be used on the GAL-102 (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/1176/Galleon-Light-Tank-GAL-102), GAL-103 (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/1177/Galleon-Light-Tank-GAL-103), GAL-104 (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/1178/Galleon-Light-Tank-GAL-104), GAL-200 (RL) (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/1180/Galleon-Light-Tank-GAL-200-RL), and Galleon Maxwell (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/1181/Galleon-Light-Tank-Maxwell) based on the record sheet artwork.

If this is what determines the Mixed Tech Status some designs from RS: 3085 Phoenix need to be revieved and corrected. The Shadow Hawk C, Rifleman C, Thunderbolt C and Archer C all use components that are all available to the Clan Tech Base.

Yes, but those were originally introduced as refits, and for the Red Corsair BLR, that's less clear.

It was a question, not an answer.  I'm preparing for the review.  The original did not list what piece of equipment made it not Clan tech, nor what the official record sheet for the unit said it was.  These are things I need to know/find out before giving an answer (or determining who needs to give an answer).
If there's a piece of equipment on it that is clearly not clan tech, or the MUL doesn't match the official record sheet, then I can give a pretty quick answer.  If there is no equipment on the unit that is not available to Clan tech base, and the official record sheet says it is clan tech, then I pass along a note to the MUL team and Record sheet team and verify that's what the RS and MUL should have for the tech base.

Record Sheets: MechWarrior Dark Age is not considered a canon source at this time. There are known issues with many designs as well as the continuity of others.

TRO:3085 has redone some of these Dark Age era designs and Catalyst hopes to publish future products that include more DA designs (which is in no way a promise of a future product).

The first Trinity Battle Armor variants have an introduction date of 3065 on the MUL, however according to Combat Equipment p52 production began in 3066.

The Asterion (PPC) variant should have a later introduction date than the original Asterion (MRR), due to the Taurians only beginning to field it after production moved to the Concordat, as per Technical Readout 3075 p26. The Readout says this happened after a "few years", however Handbook: Major Periphery States, which is dated 3067, shows the Asterion in production in the Concordat, which suggests that 3067 is the earliest introduction date for the Asterion (PPC).

The MUL supercedes dates in Combat Equipment. MUL development did extensive research on all units that had dual origins.

Going to defer to the CC/MoC expert in the MUL team. If you see a change in the next week or so, then you know you were right. :)

Per Welshman,
Cephalus does not have a unit image.
Osteon does not have a unit image.
Hobgoblin does not have a unit image.
Boggart does not have a unit image.
Sprite does not have a unit image.

Please provide links to the MUL entry. This allows us to know exactly which unit you are talking about.

Best,

No error. The entry in 3057r refers to the Riga-class Frigate, not the Destroyer/Carrier. The DD/CV currently does not exist in any form aside from a mention in the York's fluff and a few mentions to Riga IIs in Liberation of Terra Vol 1.

Not sure if this has been mentioned recently but if you go to the page for the Eagle aerospace fighter, it first shows the Eagle battlemech mini, with the aerospace minis displayed further down the page (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4106/Eagle-EGL-R1 (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/4106/Eagle-EGL-R1)). The same is true for the Eagle battlemech pages (shows both sets of minis).

Goliath GOL-1H http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/1229/Goliath-GOL-1H (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/1229/Goliath-GOL-1H):

This mech has an introduction year of 2652. However, two other mechs by the same designer, Dr. Harrison, the Xanthos and the Scorpion has intro years of 2564 and 2570. While people did live for a long time during the Star League, a gap of 80 years between the Scorpion and the Goliath does not really sound plausible.

Suggested solution:
Change to intro year of the Goliath to sometime in the 2580-2910 range of years.



EDIT:

Zeus ZEU-6S1 http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5436/Zeus-ZEU-6S1 (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/5436/Zeus-ZEU-6S1):

The Zeus ZEU-6S1 is listed as being in Record Sheets: 3039 Unabridged in the MUL.
However, this is not true, no such record sheet can be found in said product.

Suggested solution:
Remove Record Sheets: 3039 Unabridged product association from the Zeus ZEU-6S1.

The BattleTech Eras page at: http://www.masterunitlist.info/Home/GettingStarted#Eras (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Home/GettingStarted#Eras), needs to be updated, as mentioned in this post.

Jihad era is being changed to go through 3085.  (due to the FM:3085 "wrapping" up the Jihad era).  So the images/era are correct, there's still a lot of availabilities that need to be fixed.  (unit intro'ing 3082-3085 need Jihad availabilities now).  And the legends describing the Jihad/republic eras needs to be changed.  This is all in process.
3049 is an exception.  The decision was made to make 3049 as Clan Invasion even though event wise it's not Clan Invasion until 3050.  This needs to be noted somewhere in the MUL as well.

Suggested solutions:

- Change Succession Wars to 2781-3048
- Change Clan Invasion to 3049-3061
- Change Jihad to 3068-3085
- Change Dark Age to 3086+

Fury Command Tank (Standard) http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/1161/Fury-Command-Tank (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/1161/Fury-Command-Tank):

This vehicle has an introduction year of 3064 and an era of Star League. This is clearly not correct.

The year should be sometimes 3068-3069, as the design was recovered in 3068 (see TRO3050U) and this is the first version that JKAW put into production:
Quote
With some work, JKAW modified the original design, which
had some unutilized growth room, to fit an infantry bay
before putting it to market.
-- TRO3050U
and implying that it was the first variant with an infantry bay, which this version has.

Suggested solution:

- Change Era to Jihad, and change Year to 3068.

Hello,

If you are going to list BV errors, we need you to provide more data. Battle Value in the MUL is considered correct unless proven by math to not be. MUL BV supersedes all other BT publications.

Both the Assassin 99 and Cataphract 5D are designs that were completely changed between
RS3050U and RS3050Uu and were given stealth armor (in order to conform with the fluff from TRO3050U  in the case of the Cataphract).
The stealth armor is a massive BV changer.
The values in the MUL are exactly the same as the old values (928 for the Assassin and 1510 for the Cataphract)

Both have intro dates and their availabilities for the Jihad and Dark Age established, but are listed as unavailable for the Unknown era (4000-4000).  Seems like a tag that was kept by accident (my apologies if it's supposed to be there)

I'm not certain what you are saying here.  What does the BV of the cargo variant have to do with the BV of the sensor variant?  0 and NA are the same thing.  Nothing has an actual BV of 0.

The cargo variant is unarmed, as is the sensor variant, seeming to set a minimum value.  Is the sensor variant BV NA because it hasn't been officially calculated yet?

The Warhammer (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3479/Warhammer-C), Thunderbolt (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3231/Thunderbolt-C), Archer (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/90/Archer-C), Rifleman (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/2693/Rifleman-C), and Shadow Hawk C (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/2895/Shadow-Hawk-C) all list the FS, DC, and LA as users in the Jihad era. Only the Archer C has any Clan availability.

Two issues.

1. All but the Archer C show up on the FM:85 Jade Falcon RATs, so either the MUL is right and those are new conversions (which would be weird since they're crappy), or they had them all along and the MUL should have Jade Falcon availability listed. The Archer C is on the '85 Wolf RAT and that Jihad availability is listed.

2. Furthermore, every one of those designs is listed as extinct in the Republic era, but between the '85 Wolf and Falcon RATs every one of them shows up, so they should probably have something there besides extinct.


I know that RATs are not intended to be a perfectly faithful representation of a faction's military but the units they list should probably exist in that era. If it's an oversight, it's an understandable one, since those designs are so awful and I can't imagine many people have had occasion to pay attention to them.


EDIT: Three other possible problem 'Mechs, the Marauder (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/2032/Marauder-C), Atlas (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/3750/Atlas-C), and Victor C (http://).

The Marauder C does have Falcon, Ghost Bear, Wolf, and Nova Cat Jihad availability, but is also extinct in the Republic Era. It doesn't show up on any RATs, though, so that's not a direct contradiction of anything. It'd be odd if those other "extinct" availabilities changed, though.

The Atlas C has IS Clan General availability in the Jihad, so that makes sense, but only IS General availability in the Republic Era, and it's on the Falcon '85 RAT. Maybe change the Republic availability to IS Clan General as well?

The Victor C is extinct in both the Jihad and Republic Eras. That doesn't conflict with anything I'm aware of, but it seems quite odd given the widespread usage of its crappy, underweight, single-heat-sinked brethren. Perhaps that's the difference, since it's the only reasonably cooled one of the lot.

Greetings,

Thank you for your input and detailed report.

- RATs published in 2012 and moving forward are intended to match up with the MUL under most circumstances. There are fringe cases, mostly with small factions where they won't. This is not the norm.

- RATs prior to 2012 are heavily considered during MUL faction list work. Because Faction Lists and RATs were not previously justified, there will be cases where something appears in a RAT and does not appear on the MUL. When this happens, consider the RAT to either represent a very small slice of that overall era or that this unit, while not large enough in number to rate faction access, played a significant part in the history of that faction in that era.

Code: [Select]
For example: While Daniel Allard piloted a Wolfhound in the Succession Wars, that single unit doesn't really justify the Kell Hounds having the WLF in that era.

- Clan Units are still in "Beta" so are not yet perfect. Your detailed feedback is greatly appreciated.

B) The Era Digest: Age of War, page 11 gives an introduction year of 2467 for the Shadow Hawk.

has an introduction year of 2737, even if:
A) It mounts an ERPPC, see Historical: Operation Klondike, page 160, and RS:Operation Klondike,  page 43
B) The ERPPC was not invented until 2760, see Tech Manual, page 233, and Era Report: 2750, page 144

Suggested solution:

Either A) Change the introduction date of CHP-1Nb to 2760+,
or
B) create two different Champions, one with a PPC, and the other with an ERPPC.

Thank you- We are aware of the issue with all Royal units that mount ERPPCs. We are working to address that.

For now, assume all Royals with ERPPCs have an introduction date after 2750.

Please note we are also changing the ERPPC introduction date to 2751, from 2760.

Problem with the Hunter Light Support Tank: The earliest introduction date in the MUL is 2937; all other models have later introduction dates.

However, the BattleCorps story "Broken Blade", set in 2787 (First Battle of Hesperus II) features a Hunter vehicle factory on Hesperus and a number of Hunter tanks fighting.

Suggestion: Put the introduction date(s) for the standard Hunter Light Support Tank and possibly its variants back to before 2787.

Post by: Welshman on 19 August 2012, 22:17:59
The story, Broken Blade, is in error. It would have to have been another vehicle. The Hunter has always been a Succession Wars era introduced engine. Hence the stress on how odd it was to put a fusion engine on it.

Thank you,

Some additions to the Canopian MUL based on TRO 3085 and 3090.

GRF-5L Griffin: TRO 3085, p238: "These GRF-5L variants were shared with the Magistracy of Canopus, but not with the Taurian Concordat."
CRD-8L Crusader: TRO 3085, p252: "...and two others in the hands of allied Magistracy units."
WHM-5L: TRO 3085, p258: "A joint venture between the Magistracy and the Capellan Confederation, the WHM-5L trades in..."
DOL-1A1 Dola: TRO Prototypes, p96: "The Dola is also being exported to the Magistracy of Canopus, ..."
RCL-Z1M Deep Lord: TRO Prototypes, p124: "Primary Factory: Canopus"

I admit that the CRD-8L is iffy, but it's only an in-universe intelligence report and isn't 100% inclusive of all CRD-8Ls that may be in the Magistracy.  Also, the WHM-11T is given to the MoC despite the text saying only that Canopus has expressed a desire to buy them versus actually using the things directly.

EDIT: A few more additions; these are from the 3085 RAT for the Canopians.  OTT-7J Ostscout, WTH-2 Whitworth, and CP-10-Q Cyclops.  They don't show on Periphery General either.

Helepolis HEP-2H http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/1461/Helepolis-HEP-2H,

has an introduction year of 2488, even if:
A) It uses double heat-sinks, see Record Sheets 3075 unabridged, page 174, and TRO:3075,  page 182-183
B) Double Heat-sinks was not invented until 2567 (prototype 2559), 80 years later, see Tech Manual, page 221, and Historical: Reunification War, page 178

Suggested solution:

Either A) Change the introduction date of HEP-2H to 2567+,
or
B) remove the double heat-sinks from HEP-2H.

Hello,

I found a couple of errors.
-The Falcon Hawk entries link to the page to purchase the Falcon BattleMech.
-The date of introduction for the Blackjack is listed as 2771.  Is this correct?  This is not published in any of the TRO I have (3025, 3039), and it is different that the lasted publication of RS: 3039.  Additionally, TRO3039 states, "The Blackjack's original role was to help suppress insurgent forces (mainly in the Periphery) that challenged Star League authority in the decades before its fall".

Thanks!

I can't do anything with the Falcon Hawk issue for now.

As for the Blackjack fluff, the TR3039 reference does work - it's saying that the Blackjack was designed to combat the sort of trouble that had been plaguing the League for its final decades, not that the Blackjack was built prior to those decades.  The trouble pre-existed the design.

OK, I was just worried because the date on RS: 3039 (Catalyst) of 2757 also seems reasonable with that description.  Thank you for your quick reply!

FM: U, p. 59.

"Unlike the Ha Otoko, the Mad Cat Mk II is not a stripped-down version, but incorporates fully functional Clan technology..."

The MUL has the HKO-1C listed as available to the Draconis Combine and Lyran Alliance from '68 on, but since the text indicates it was being sold prior to the Jihad, the Combine probably has it during the Clan Invasion era. The Diamond Sharks should definitely have access pre-Jihad.

Similarly, the standard Ha Otoko is a Clan Invasion-era machine and should be available for the Diamond Sharks in that window. I believe based on the text in FM: U and the general spread of Clan technology that Jihad and beyond availability to various Sphere factions is correct.

There were Dervishes functionally identical to the DV-6M in the Reunification War, but had different model numbers.  Those models have not been named/published yet, so the RATs just say to use the DV-6M.

First- looks very good. I also had no troubles using the new interface and getting the answers I was looking for.

Still there are csome questions:

Inner Sphere General can be chosen under Units but not under Factions.

Are the units from the general list an IS faction gets included in their Faction specific list already?

In the Periphery the Periphery General 'faction' can be found both under Units and Factions. So if I want to check what units are available for the MoC or MH I have to check both lists (Faction specific and General) or do a unit search (like I usually do).

How about a small line about what Periphery Factions also may use the General List or integrating the PG units into the Faction selection to make it easier for new players to find their stuff?

BTW- Rasalhague Dominion is found under Periphery factions and not among the Clans?

The overall page look is very clean, and IMO a great advancement over the previous version. I like the similarities to the main bg.battetech site.

You should put a notice up top of the 'Era' page stating that it is still a work in progress. While those of us who follow the MUL development know that the non-Jihad and Republic eras are still works in progress, some users may not know that. And while it is stated on the home page, it really should still be repeated on the 'Era' page. People will always click without reading.

The 'Units' page layout seems too vertical. The 'Your Terms' is placed close to center, while the actual selection areas are aligned left. Additionally, there is an awful lot of white space to the right, even viewing at 1024x768. Moving some or all of the selection boxes to the right would allow for less white space and also allow clicking 'Filter' without having to page scroll.

The "Under license from Topps" section / image in the lower right links to the Battletech Facebook page, rather than to Topps website. The Catalyst logo in the upper right hand corner should probably link to Catalyst's website, and I would suggest having the large Battletech logo link to bg.battletech.com rather than linking back to home. Even if you decide not to do that, I would add a link to the main Battletech website somewhere on the MUL site, other than the only current link(which leads directly to this thread, bypassing the main page altogether).

Additionally, the favicon is currently missing.

The answer to this needs to be shown:

Inner Sphere General can be chosen under Units but not under Factions.

Are the units from the general list an IS faction gets included in their Faction specific list already?

In the Periphery the Periphery General 'faction' can be found both under Units and Factions. So if I want to check what units are available for the MoC or MH I have to check both lists (Faction specific and General) or do a unit search (like I usually do).

Also, not related to update, but I am also confused if the Republic era Ravens has access to Periphery General and/or IS Clan General lists?

Going on about factions, the following are missing from the faction list:
- Clan Stone Lion
- The six FWL-substates
- Fronc Reaches
- Filtvelt Coalition
(The last two should probably be separated from Periphery General, due to the latest FR:Periphery and FM:3085 treating them as major Periphery states.)


Other than that, I do like the update and thinks it is a clear improvement.

EDIT:
No, I found another issue. The screen that displays an individual unit is too wide. I have a wide-screen monitor, and has to scroll sideways, that is not good. The culprit is the BattleForce box, those pages that lacks it are fine.

That works sorta. I can select & modify the P/G of mechs, but only mechs. I can see Vees & Inf. in the faction specific units selection, but it won't let me select anything to add to the force. will play with it some more I guess while waiting for the MUL force creator's return.

I switched to the multi-select boxes because I can better control the length of the section.  With the checkboxes the Faction and Sources areas became so long vertically that you were having to scroll for days to get to the filter button.

CTRL-Click and SHIFT-Click are how you work with multi-select boxes...and you will have the same click errors as you would with checkboxes so in my mind that is a wash.

 All i want to know is what infantry are available in the SL era. How do i do that? I appologise if this isn't the right place to ask this but i'm not very savvy when it comes to this kind of thing.

CTRL-Click and SHIFT-Click are how you work with multi-select boxes...and you will have the same click errors as you would with checkboxes so in my mind that is a wash.

I disagree.

It is a major PITA when you try to select more than one or three options from a list. One missclick in a column and you can start out again. When I check the wrong box I can simply uncheck it again without having to go through the whole process again.

  Suggestion : take out all the eras that are not done and add them when they are.Less confusion that way.

Hey guys,
I like the new format to your MUL, but I have a couple of questions:
This may be completely legitimate, but I am surprised the "Inner Sphere General - Jihad" category has so many Clan OmniMechs available (14 if I did not miss any - Dasher, Koshi, Hankyu, Puma, Dragonfly, Fenris, Black Hawk, Loki, Thor, Man O'War, Masakari, Kingfisher, Gladiator and Daishi). I took a look in "Combat Operations", and this is not the case 1 year before this list takes over. In spite of all the battlefield salvage (and trade?), I guess I am just surprised these OmniMechs are so ubiquitous in the Inner Sphere.
Also, there is a very small selection of combat units available to "Lyran Commonwealth - Jihad" and "Lyran Alliance - Republic". Not realizing you separated the Lyran state into 2 separate entries, I was confused at first. Can this be changed to be a little less confusing?
Thanks!
Steve

An omission rathen than an error:

Entry for the Tomahawk (OmniMech) from "The Price of Conviction" lists tonnage as N/A.
In the story (second page of the story's print edition, on p. 91 of in First Strike - BattleCorps Anthology 2), the Tomahawk is explicitly said to be a 100-tonner with 19 tons of armor and "over half [its] total weight" is devoted to pod space for weaponry".

Note: Combat Operations faction list is being "obsoleted" by the MUL.  IE. We're not tracking errata to those lists.  Combat Operations not having the IS with any Clan omnis and the MUL  having them available in the Jihad does not mean the IS suddenly gained them post 3067.  But as the Field Manuals (Updates and earlier) show, the IS had a significiant number of Clan tech units.  There needs to be Clan tech on their faction availability lists in order for there to be units for players to select to "match" the Field Manual listings.

When using the "has BF ability" filter you have to enter the string exactly as it appears on the BF card.  That means you have to know what is on the BF card and in what order the abilities are in in order to find a given unit. 

For example:

If I want to find all units with ECM and a C3M and I enter ECM,C3M I will get zero (0) results.  To find all units with ECM and C3M I have to enter ECM,TAG,C3M.  If I enter the same terms in a different order such as TAG, ECM, C3M then I get zero (0) results. 

The search function should be able to parse that line and search for each term individually.  Also, if spaces are used between search terms or if any delimiter other than a comma is used it will break the search and no results will be found.

Correct, the field is set too look for a single BF Ability at the moment.  It is doing a simple Contains check (ie. "ENE, MEL, AC1/1/1" Has ENE in the string) and will not work if you do not match the string exactly.  At the moment I do not have plans to make that field more intelligent.  But I'll put it on my list of things to consider adding.

The MUL's introduction date is it's first date in service. FM: Updates says "In 3066, they unveiled the Mad Cat Mk II."
I don't know why they waited so long.  We don't even know where it was manufactured (perhaps the reasons are linked).  Perhaps the Diamond Sharks wanted to wait for the FS/DC to be at their most desperate before selling it.
But since neither one (production since 3061 and unveiled in 3066) are necessarily impossible, we've kept them as is.

The exact availability of those units has yet to be announced as the units' availability listings note.  As such, the factions for them aren't set at the moment.  When they are, that search will work.

I should note that neither unit you're inquiring about is mixed tech, by the way.

The Raven Alliance doesn't exist until the Early Republic.  For the Early Republic era, we've only done Mechs and Vehicles.
The Snow Raven availability in the Jihad should give you a good idea of what they have, except for new units.

The Quickdraw QKD-8P is using the default Quickdraw image, if it has no image of it's own from TRO:Prototypes it should probably be using the QKD-8X's image as it is a production model of the later

All the units produced by this search: http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit?Name=&HasBFAbility=&HasBV=false&MinTons=&MaxTons=&MinBV=0&MaxBV=0&MinIntro=&MaxIntro=&MinCost=&MaxCost=&Types=21&SubTypes=30&SubTypes=31&SubTypes=32&SubTypes=33&SubTypes=34&SubTypes=35&SubTypes=36&SubTypes=37&SubTypes=38&SubTypes=39&BookAuto=

Notably lack Record Sheets and I believe they are repeat entries of either other units in the MUL or erroneously generated/added, all units on that list come from the Housebooks and later appeared in TRO:3085 under different names and updated for the new construction rules

Finally it would be nice, if possible, to have some indication of when a unit might be found

Are you clicking on the Cost column header to sort it?  I am not seeing the issue with the two values you mentioned in my tests.  The comma was intentionally left off specifically so that the sort WOULD work. =)

Post by: Daryk on 09 December 2012, 19:38:42
Skyhigh,
     Yes, when I click on the cost column to sort, it appears to be sorting purely by alphabetical order, such that 10152706 (SHD-5M) and 11807510 (AXM-1M) are before 1248700 (HNT-152), which is then followed by 13015625 (Marauder Bounty Hunter).  The filters I'm using are: Production Eras Late Succession War; Types BattleMech; Techs Inner Sphere.  The whole list is 149 units.  The last unit with an actual cost (i.e. before it gets into the NA's) is the BLR-2C (9894294).  My previous examples were arbitrary round figures for convenience.  Hopefully that didn't cause too much confusion.

So it turns out that the issue was the "NA" that I was filling in for records without a Cost.  This NA I think was forcing the sorter into seeing the column as a string and not a number.  I've removed the NA and now all the tests that I can think of seem to be sorting correctly.

I'm having trouble using the MUL on my Nitro LG phone. This issue is a very recent one (two months?) and started around the last major update when the /mobile part of the site was removed. So chalking these up to teething errors of a new format though they are inconvenient as I mostly access the MUL through my phone when at a game.

The biggest issue is that when I go to a specific unit to look up its Battleforce stats I do not get all of the information. For some reason I see two large blank boxes which apparently should contain the image card one sees when viewing the entry on a normal computer, and a string of information about the units points cost, weight, damage, and special abilities. However the part listing the armor and structure "bubbles". and the unit image itself are simply not there. I assume that's because those two items are part of one of those two blank image boxes I'm seeing.

For some reason the pages aren't loading like they were a few months ago, and for some reason when I go to the units page I have to scroll down through all the various filter options before I'm presented with the units that were found in my search. When a specific unit entry is loaded the image for it takes up the majority of the screen and I can't seem to zoom out at all.

It also seems that when there are multiple camospec images for a unit it loads them in a vertical lne that can make scrolling down to the bottom of a page kind of a chore for units such as the Warhammer.

When I go to a normal computer everything looks fine but as my friend commented on having similar issues using his Iphone I'm not sure if my graphical issues are a end user error or something with the list itself.

So, the Hellion goes from Clan General in the Jihad to a more restricted list in the Republic? I guess that could happen but it still seems odd.

Also, no availability data shows up at all for the Burrock 2, and the Blood Kite 3, which didn't show up in the product, appears to have a page and is listed as 3067u.  So, that's also weird.

Loss of production facilities or simple abandonment of a design can lead to reduced availabilities.

Yes, Burrock 2 is known and is no error. It is not available to any Inner Sphere power at the moment.
Blood Kite was entered in error.

As far as I can tell, the site does it by sniffing the user agent string.  Putting in a Chrome for Android string as an override in my laptop's browser gets me the mobile site.  So no, you shouldn't need to do anything like that.

Ailette Rescue PA(L) is given an introduction date of 3080 in the MUL, but according to XTRO Periphery it entered production in 3074.

EDIT: Scrub that. I think. There appears to be a un-statted production Ailette Rescue as well as the experimental Ailette Rescue judging by the fluff. I'm going to pester jymset.

A small request for our resident MUL users:

I'm currently working on getting missing images into the MUL. So, if you notice anything missing, wrong or even bad image quality: Please tell me. I will then try to get a new/improved image up ASAP. There are far too many units in the MUL to see them all, so a few more eyes help :)
You do not need to go out of your way to find anything, but if you are using the MUL anyway, and notice anything, anything at all, please ping us.
You do not need to report any TRO VA images, though. I'm currently on those, a few are already up, others are in the works.
TRO Prototypes doesn't need reporting, either, we are aware of the holes there (though a few have been stuffed).

Anything else is game :)

So, I'm bored, and decided to go out of my way. O:-)

Units missing pictures (NOTE I do not know if these units even have official art, but I'm listing them anyway):
Pathfinder PFF-2
Pathfinder PPF-2T
Hector HOR-1B
Hector HOR-1C
HawkWolf HWK-3F
Star Dagger S-2
Firebird FR-1
Malaika BAM-1A1
Dragonfire DG-05
Aquilla Transport Jumpship (Standard)

Just did a quick search for Primitives, and all came up with low-pixel transparent squares for their pictures.  I'm not 100% sure whether that falls under the "TRO Prototypes" heading or not, so putting it here anyway.

Okay, have all images around, with a few additional units (all XTRO: Retro, Primitives I, DATP:Liao and ED: AoW should be up later).

No XTRO Units fall under the TRO Prototypes rule :)

Thanks for your input.

Are there any plans to expand the list of currently available factions into the coreward Deep Periphery, by adding in the Hanseatic League and Escorpión Imperio?

The latter faction has been given a RAT in ISP3, and would have use for the Reptar (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5797) and Araña (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5798/arana-ara-s-1-militiamech) recently added to the list of MilitiaMechs in the MUL.

I should apologise in advance if the Hansa would be covered already under Periphery General. However, O:P notes that certain units which the MUL lists as being extinct in the Jihad era, such as the Tiger medium tank (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5244/tiger-medium-tank-t-12), are still in production on Antwerp as of 3079.

The LGH-6W Lightray's Record Sheet information should be switched to RS3067, since its the latest version of it.

The source and product data is harder to tell what it should be, since Wolf and Blake DOES detail the 6W in a TR-like fashion, while TR3067 details the 4W and doesn't mention the 6W in the variants fluff.

Generally, trying to go with where is the most current, detailed information.  Since TR3067 has no detail (or even a mention), and Wolf and Blake has some, I'm going to leave it as is.

Variants "Prime" A, B, C, (Grayson), and (Tancred) are all listed as "Templar TLR1-O"

Hello,

Because there has been a lot of confusion lately.


WHAT IS THE MUL?
- The Master Unit List is an official Catalyst product. One that Catalyst provides for free to its fans, though every bit as official as any TRO or sourcebook, if not more in many cases.

- The MUL undergoes continuous amount of fact check and is constantly being updated. So unlike a static print TRO, the MUL is able to be updated should something change. If a unit appears on the MUL, then enough validation was done to determine that "Yes, this unit existed and is not pure rumor."

- This does not mean said unit will ever see its stats published. That is not the purpose of the MUL. While the MUL does serve as a very useful resource for Battle Value, Battle Force stats and image art, the primary purpose of the MUL is to provide faction availability for units and as a list of all known units in the universe.

- Just because something is not on the MUL does not mean it does not exist. The concept of "the needs of fiction" still apply to the BattleTech universe. Not every factory, vehicle and hand gun in the universe has been documented, nor will they ever be. The MUL is what we know, what has been documented in canon. 

- Sarna is not the MUL. Sarna is not canon. If Sarna lists a Mech and the MUL doesn't then the MUL is most likely correct (Catalyst is not perfect, we do make the occasional errors). The MUL has access to information that Sarna does not have access to, as it is internal information.

Hi,  I'm not sure I'm doing this right.  But for some reason, each and every MenShen variant on the MUL has a different BV than what is my HMPro.

I've listed out the BV calculations for the F model but its all variants so I think it might be a base chassis issue.  I'm really not sure.


CALCULATE DEFENSIVE BATTLE RATING:                                         
  ----------------------------------

  TOTAL BATTLE VALUE FOR 'MECH                                        =  1,526









*********************************************


Also,  Per FM:3085 the Fast Recon infantry (pg210) is 114 BV while the MUL has Fast Recon as 99 BV.
Not sure which one is correct here.



Hope this helps.

In this case, HMP is incorrectly calculating the BV for the mech's speed factor because it's using the old BV formula for adding MASC.  The -OF's Speed Factor is 1.89, not 1.63.  Make sure you're using the latest patch for HMP - if you are, you'll have to wait for a new version to be released.

Ah ha,  okay,  I kinda figured it might be a HM issue, but I thought I was using most updated & never realized there was an issue since I thought it was fully TM compatable (besides new weapons of course).

Any word on the problem w/ the infantry ?

*When I attempt to use the mobile version of the MUL on a variety of my iPad's browsers (I tested Safari, Mercury, and Puffin), tapping on on 'Units' sends me to an otherwise blank screen that says 'Undefined' and I am unable to conduct a search.

I've been toying with the idea of putting together a Kell Hounds battalion, with 1 company of clan mechs. I almost posted on these forums elsewhere asking for help on a few mechs as I wasn't sure if they would technically be used by the Kell Hounds or not. Somehow I came across the feature on the Master Unit List database to sort by faction (sorry I have barely ever used it). Low & behold it does sort out for Kell Hounds. So I scrolled through the list & I think I found some errors...and by all means please correct me if I'm wrong...

#1 - There are no mechs such as Grendel, Shadow Cat, Nobori-Nin, Cauldron-Born, Nova Cat, & Behemoth etc...that are listed. Per cannon, the Kell Hounds captured a lot of clan tech on Luthien...so aren't these kind of a given?

#2 - The Uller is not listed, but per TRO3060, they used captured Ullers to create the Arctic Fox Omni mech. Shouldn't that be listed in there?

#3 - The Hoplite HOP-4X is not listed, and per XTRO Mercs it's manufactured at Arc Royal MechWorks...but I take it due to the main tech involved & that it is mostly clan tech, the Kell Hounds would not be using this mech?

#4 - The Wolfhound WLF-2X, Annihilator ANH-2AX & Schwerer Gustav from XTRO Mercs are not listed for the Kell Hounds either.

Also, I'm not sure if this is an oversight or simply wrong choices on my part as per mechs for the Kell Hounds, but what about the Mjolnir, Hauptman, Fafnir & Imp? Could these technically be used by the Kell Hounds? Supposedly the Imp is a rumor since Wolf's Dragoons are now on Arc-Royal (and the Imp IMP-4E is listed in the Dark Age listing for Kell Hound mechs)...but the other 3 should be available to them right?

Thanks

Hello, Dragon.

1- The very first rule and guideline to understand is this one: "It if works for your and your fellow player's game, then do what makes sense to you."

2- The second rule is that the MUL Faction List represents the "norm." There are always exceptions to this norm. For example, the Mackie is considered extinct during the Late Succession War. At the same time, the Free Worlds League has a LSW unit that has a couple of Mackies it uses just for parades. The Mackie is "extinct" there are almost always exceptions to any of the "norms" as they represent the broad brushstrokes of the universe.

As to your specific questions.

#1- Many of the units you call out were not common during the early Clan Invasion or not even in production. The Grendel was first used in 3053 (check out the MUL lists introduction dates).

#2- Generally, when units are used to help design something else, they get taken apart in the process. This happened with the Nighthawk BA the GDL found, the Undines sold to the FedSuns (to make the Hauberks) and so on.

#3- Arc Royal MechWorks  built it, that does not automatically mean the Kell Hounds get access. I believe this one was made exclusively for the WiE.

#4- I don't have the XTRO handy right now, so can't comment officially. However, remember that most units in the XTRO are either one of a kind or part of very small production run. Unless the Hounds were the ones making any of these units, it is very likely they don't have one of the few or THE unique unit.

Thank you, we hope this answers your questions.

Welshman,

Thank you very much, you bring up a good few points I completely forgot about such as timelines against when the Kell Hounds faced the Nova Cats & Smoke Jaguars...I'll double check what those were!

I know there aren't "specifics" when dealing with the making of mechs at Arc-Royal MechWorks when it comes to who gets what, just wasn't sure if there is some sort of guideline people use, but the whole "if it works for you and your fellow players game..." statement makes sense.

Thanks again!

XTR units:  since they are often a single unit, we initially just marked them as unique (ie. check the book because its so rare it's not generally available to anyone).
Later we started combining unique and a faction, I think we just need to update XTR mercs to show KH for some of those units that don't have it now.

Hi folks,

I have a question about the BL-10-KNT Black Knight Ross from Starterbook: Sword and Dragon.
I already added some similar problems in the appropriate errata thread, but I am not sure how to treat this one.

The record sheet on page 111 and the MUL gives an introduction date for the Mech of 3055, but it uses ER Lasers (introduced 3058) and a Targeting Computer (introduced 3062). Do you think this is an error, or are the components supposed to be some kind of prototypes?

When was the BJ-3 Blackjack introduced? The MUL has a BJ-3X introduced in 3035 and BJ-3 in 3042. Battlepack Fourth Succession War 1705, page 34, has the BJ-3 being used on on Sian on 24 October 3029. Two are listed as defenders. The fluff on page 38 says they're creation was ordered by Duchess Candace Liao and that she gave them to House Davion as part of a peace proposal after the Fourth Succession War.

What is the BJ-3X?  Is it the one mentioned in TRO:3039? If it is, is it still a retcon of the BJ-3 from the Battlepack? If yes, shouldn't the BJ-3X have an introduction date in the late 3020s? If they're not the same mech, what kind of double heat sinks did the Battlepack BJ-3 use?

With the re-release of the 3075 Record Sheets, I'm sure y'all are going to go through and check all the 3075 designs (and change the sources most likely).

However, I figure this one might slip by so I thought I'd mention it.

http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/1826/koschei-ksc-5x

This should be "Advanced" and not "Experimental" as per the latest Record Sheet.

The BJ-3 replaces all the heat sinks with doubles.  The BJ-3X replaces 3 external (to the engine) heat sinks with experimental double heat sinks.
Tech Manual says "Their [experimental double heat sinks] deployment in the late 3030s, however, gave Davion and Steiner forces a brief advantage in the early days of the FedCom alliance."
Standard double heat sinks were recovered in 3040, again according to Tech Manual.

The BJ-3X intro date was changed to match Tech Manual.

Note that intro dates listed on MUL are, in general, for in standard service dates (not testing, prototype).  So whether or not there were 2 prototype BJ-3Xs earlier is beyond the scope of the MUL.

Thank you but does that mean there were two different BJ-3s? Battlepack Fourth Succession War has the BJ-3 being used in 3029 during the Fourth Succession War. If that's still canon, does that mean the Fourth Succession War version used Chemical Double Heat sinks, since the experimental DHS-Ps werent introduced until later?

According to the BattleCorps story Proprietary (http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Proprietary), the Steiners built prototype DHS (of the Hoff type, or possibly more advanced) for the Davions on Hesperus II around 3027. The FedSuns lacked the industrial base to build them themselves.
A significant share of the production was siphoned off into the Capellan Confederation by a traitor.
In the Twelfth Battle of Hesperus II (a raid by McCarron's Armored Cavalry mentioned in the MAC sourcebook), which was actually an extraction raid for the traitor, the facility was smashed.

I wrote the story with the odd BJ-3 and its DHS in mind, though that's not spelled out anywhere.

I think I've mentioned this before, but...

Quite a few designs with c3i have introduction dates before the introduction of c3i in 3062. The LNC25-04 Lancelot at 3057 for instance. Last time I think I mentioned this, I was told that the introduction date for c3i was looking to be pushed back. The 3.0 Errata for TM doesn't say anything about this. Should I be posting the designs with the incorrect dates again, or is this a TM issue?

The BJ-1X has an intro date of 2769, while the BJ-1 has an intro date of 2757. However, TRO 3039, page 128 makes it clear that the BJ-1X is an early prototype, and hence should have an intro date that is earlier than that of the BJ-1.

Suggested solution:
Give the BJ-1X an intro year that is earlier than that of the BJ-1, for example 2755.

I've been having an issue when trying to access the MUL website using the web browser on my PS Vita.

When I go to the site, it defaults to what seems to be a mobile edition. (If there was a way to skip that and have it go to the desktop edition, that would be welcome; but that's not what I'm getting at for the moment.)

The MUL main page shows up like this:

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v108/Nerroth/Misc/2013-04-29-164435_zps1ef5f228.jpg)

Some of the links on the second row work well enough; here is what happens when you click on "Sources":

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v108/Nerroth/Misc/2013-04-29-164454_zps4f1416a8.jpg)

However, if you try and click on "Units", it does this instead:

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v108/Nerroth/Misc/2013-04-29-164503_zps815a68af.jpg)

I don't know if that is happening for anyone else trying to access to the site on a mobile device, but I thought it might be worth mentioning just in case.

The introducition date for the CGR-SB Challenger (Charger variant) is given as 3025 in the MUL. This is correct if going by the BattleTechnology writeup in issue 0202. However, BattleTechnology is not canon anymore and Record Sheets Volume Four: Assault Mechs (which established the CGR-SB as canonical irrespective of the canon status of BattleTechnology) gives 2665 as introduction year for this variant, same as the standard CGR-1A1 Charger.

Also, the MUL wrongly names TRO:3039 as a source for the CGR-SB. The CGR-SB isn't mentioned there at all (at least in my PDF edition) although it arguably should be. In fact TRO:3039 explicitly states that only two variants made an appearance in the early 31st century  (the -1L and -1A5), and later on the 1A9.

I believe the original RS:3039u gives entry date for 2950 for it entering service.  RS:3039U lists just Succession Wars era.  So it kinda bandaids the problem.   Unfortunately entry years are tough now, i think SB was added as sort of bonus mech variant when Unabridged RS came out.

Both Hammerhands should be HMH not HWH.

The art used to illustrate the SDR-7K Spider (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/3011/spider-sdr-7k) on the MUL seems to be the same as that used for the SDR-8X model. From what I gather, the -7K model should look more like the sample shown on the cover art for ISP3 (http://bg.battletech.com/?wpsc-product=interstellar-expeditions-interstellar-players-3) (which, according to the note on the back cover, is supposed to be a -7K model). may be correct, after all (http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php/topic,8039.msg693532.html#msg693532); which would make the ISP3 back cover note in error, rather than the respective MUL entry.

My apologies.

Hello,

I haven't used the MUL much.  A while ago I remember signing in and being able to select units and add them to unit lists.  I even remember being able to modify battle values by adjusting gunnery and piloting skills.  I've signed in a few times recently and can't seem to find this functionality any longer.  Am I missing something or did I just imagine the entire thing?

Thanks in advance.

What's the MUL's source for all the people having access to the Royal Crab in the Jihad and Republic and DA? Sure the clans and C* and WoB makes sense in small numbers (they were only a fraction of the original 1k Crab run), but the others really don't to me.

The 27b is not mentioned in 3050U (3071) with the updates and refits being from 20's to 27's and 27's to C's and all the factories at the time being stuff like 30's and 45's and no confirmed factories making the Crab in 3080. The New Dallas Core with the specs didn't become widely available until after 3075 so it's not a lot of time to pull together 27b packages. Northwind was under blockade, Mars was only making stuff for the Blakists, Orestes had it's line converted over to something else under the Dominion. Where is this stuff coming from?

The MUL source makes it look like anyone who made or could have got their hands on a 20 or 27 or a 30 also has access to the 27b. Just wondering where is the official source that has people making that refit? It's a good mod, and refit kit level for a 20 or 27, but that doesn't automatically make it available. Kind of like the Grasshopper 5N isn't a 3rd War mech. Just looking for a canon source here or the reasoning used.

The MUL is the source.
The availability is there in the MUL.  Any reasoning behind it would not be canon however, just my opinion.  (And would be based on the idea that the refit can be done in dropship bays.)

As he has said, the MUL is now the primary source for faction data. During product development, faction access is determined and entered into the MUL.

It just seems that for nearly extinct designs, they get around a lot, with no indication as to why.

Take the old Pixie Special 2. Barely out of prototype when the exodus hit. So the Clans and WoB/C* have a few. By the DA, the Capellans and the Mariks all have access to it for some reason.

It just seems that if a design has less than 10 chassis in existence, it should be declared extinct for all intents and purposes. Take the Shogun C. There are literally 6 Shoguns and a small fraction of that is the C left in known space 10 years prior to the Jihad. The only two operational models by 3071 are a Shogun 2F and the custom Trisha. But there she is on the Dragoons availability chart like you could grab a lance of C's and crank up the party tunes in 3084.

And the royals aren't even getting rarer, they're expanding. All I'm looking for is any non-mul published product that says these refits are being done or kit upgrades are being made.

At the least, you guys must have an internal log for an entry beyond "Because"?

Remember that for every word written into a book, there are probably at least a thousand unwritten words that are never seen. The MUL has become one of the tools to communicate at least he end product of some of those unwritten words.

And in this case, gooseman, pretty much hit he nail on the head. People know a good design when they see one and the Dallas memory core gave them the ability to rebuild these lost designs. You'll notice in most cases, the revived Royals are ones where the base chassis still existed, so it was just a refit or factory variant.

Best,
Joel BC

I am not exactly sure this is an errata but most of the battlearmor from TRO3058U, 3075, 3085 Supplemental  and Prototypes don't have
their Republic era availability listed (BTW the BA from TRO 3085 do have it).

Phalanx, Void, Corona RS 3075 Unabridged
Gladiator S, Elemental II, Void Minelayer RS Prototypes print version (There is no RS Prototypes Unabridged yet).

The Hatchetman from the Recognition Cards moves at 3/5/3.  It's a strange variant that appears only there.  It was an attempt to give the Hatchetman a hatchet, which didn't exist under the rules when TRO3025 was published.  The final variant dropped three heat sinks instead of the speed.

I have a couple recommendations & a question for the Master Unit List site and whom ever is in charge of it...

#1...Easy addition...Can you have your programmers allow the download of a .CSV or .XLSX file of the displayed units. For example, I go to the site and click units, apply filters for Inner Sphere & Mixed Tech, and then select a Faction and hit apply filters. This brings back a list of all units for that faction in those given techs. Either at the bottom or top of the list, there could be a download button that allows a file of those said units to be downloaded and viewed offline (yeah I know almost everyone is always online)...but it could be helpful and should be a really easy addition to the site.

#2...BIG addition...At some point, if/when things slow down for you guys, could you add in the description of each unit, what planets and/or factories the mechs (vehicles, aerospace, etc.) are manufactured on/at? It might be easier to have the factory show for the mech, especially when it comes to variants, and that factory link would take you to the factory description, which would then show you what planet it was on...and what house/clan had possession of the planet at any given time. Currently, without this, we as Battletech players have to dig through Sarna.net to find these types of answers, and we all know it's not 100% reliable, and it's only updated to around 3067. At least with the described option on the MUL...we would have official cannon answers.

#3...Question...The listings for Wolf's Dragoons in the Eras of Late Republic and Dark Age seem too light. I realize they are coming back after being nuked on Outreach...but being that they were on Arch Royal, would they not have access to the Clan Wolf in Exile mechs, Arch Royal Mech Works mechs, and the Lyran Commonwealth mechs that were manufactured during that time?

#3...Question...The listings for Wolf's Dragoons in the Eras of Late Republic and Dark Age seem too light. I realize they are coming back after being nuked on Outreach...but being that they were on Arch Royal, would they not have access to the Clan Wolf in Exile mechs, Arch Royal Mech Works mechs, and the Lyran Commonwealth mechs that were manufactured during that time?

Full availability information for the Late Republic and Dark Age eras isn't available yet.  What's listed are just the 'Mechs from the TRO3145 series.

CASEII seems to show up as CASE. I noticed this first with the HBK-7R.

EDIT after getting some sleep: CASEII seems to be showing up as CASE on the Alpha Strike cards. Also some units don't have CR on their cards where I believe they should. An example of the CASEII=CASE scenario can be seen with the HBK-7R Hunchback while the CR issue appears with the Mad Cat MK.II Enhanced. I don't know what qualifies a unit for CR besides Hardened Armor or Ferro-Lamellor but I believe Reinforced Structure gives a Critical Hit modifier in TW; I don't know if that translates into CR in AS.

Also the KSC-5I and KSC-5MAF Koschei still have their pre-errata BV.

DI Schmitt Tank (Standard) (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6602/di-schmitt-tank-standard)

Problem: Introduction Year conflicting with fluff of Profile.
Schmitt introduction date for the standard model & Targeting computer version are dated for 3093 on the MUL.
However, the DI Schmitt's background info mentions vehicle in service for 30 years.  That would make the intro year for the DI Schmitt as 3115. 

Quote from: TRO:3145LC DI Schmitt Tank
Recent action on Hesperus II demonstrates it is still a relevant and capable unit thirty years after its introduction.

Suggestive Fix: Change Intro years to 3115 on MUL.
 
P.S.  I'm not sure, but there something off about the MUL.  Its been distorting the icons on the webpage. I'm using a older browser, but i'm not sure if me or the website. Era icons don't fit in the boxes for instance.

We've been fixing the CASEII as we find them.
CR is used for armor that resists through armor crits.  Reinforced Structure gives more structure points, not CR.

 STM-O Sternensturm (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6637/sternensturm-stm-o)

Problem: Rules Level is Wrong for Base, Primary Configuration, and B Configuration

The Sternensturm's tech level according to the TRO and its record sheet indicates this fighter is a "for this era" regular Inner Sphere technology and not Advanced Rules as is listed with MUL entry.  Only Advanced Rules level is A due to the PPC Capacitor.  Unless I missed something, because i was referring to TRO: Prototype's P.206-207 tech changes and found nothing else that would be listed Advanced or better as of 3145. 

Suggested Fix: Changed Base, Primary Configuration, and B Configuration's Rules set to Standard.

More era/date mismatches (I think this is all of them)

Suggestion: Change era to Jihad

The Annihilator ANH-3A (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/41/annihilator-anh-3a)  has an intro date of 3068, but is listed as Civil War
Suggestion: Change era to Jihad

The Annihilator ANH-4A (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/42/annihilator-anh-4a)  has an intro date of 3068, but is listed as Civil War
Suggestion: Change era to Jihad

A number of units are listed as Early Republic designs, but have intro dates before that era
The following units have an intro year of 0, but are in TRO 3145 The Clans. I do not have this book, so disregard this if no intro year is provided in that publication

Arion (Standard) (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6252/arion-standard)
Cyllaros (Standard) (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6253/cyllaros-standard)
Harpagos (Standard) (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6254/harpagos-standard)

The Celerity CLR-02-X-D (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5553/celerity-clr-02-x-d) has an intro date of 3052, but is listed as Jihad
Suggestion: Not sure what to make of this one, as the XXL engine is listed as a 3055 rediscovery in TacOps (pg 309), and the equipment description suggests that the original Hegemony designs were mere prototypes and never made it to production. Did ComStar have some sort of secret stash of XXL engines to work on?

3117 was when it was prototyped. I am under the impression that the MUL focuses on service dates, in which case 3118 seems to fit perfectly with the text, which has been reproduced below.

Purpose-built after the Second Combine-Dominion War, the first prototype cleared trials at Dover in 3117, and production models quickly became the preferred choice of small unit battlesuit commanders and their planners.

The MUL is designed to represent field units.  As such, it is bent by unique, prototype units.  The Celerity CLR-02-X-D was never anything but a prototype unit.  We put the project start date, because there was never anything but testing on this project.  So putting a "field date" would be making up something that didn't exist.
When did it's engine actually work?  3055 presumably.  Before that it was probably running around, but overheated in seconds/minutes/whatever was wrong with it prior to 3055.  But it didn't do anything signficantly different after 3055.  It was still just testing.

Yeah, the project to make ComStar drones started in 3052, but the 02-X-D is far from the first one Celerity. It came in to being well past the development of XXL.

More importantly the SL/TH never actually finished/completed it's XXL research so C* would not have had anything to work with in 3052

Actually, it's a combo of bad data (not type was entered for the two mentioned) and bad default (anything not matching would go to large card).  I updated the code to default to the standard card rather then the large and will work with the MUL team to update the data.

Think there is an issue with the Templar III TLR2-OC from TRO 3145 Fed Suns.

The MUL shows an introdate of 3100 but the Re-Engineered Large laser didn't prototype until approx. 3120 according to TRO 3145 Print Edition.

Suggestion to move the OC date to 3120 and make it Tech Base Experimental.

We'll look into it.  The details are a little more complicated than that since RE lasers are advanced per FM3145.

For the time being, I've set the B, C, and D configurations as Advanced per their listings in TRO3145 Federated Suns and updated the tech base on the D.

Protected part of the ammo isn't sufficient.  If there's one ton of ammo without any protection, it doesn't get any CASE, no matter if other ammo is protected.  If there's one ton of ammo with CASE and one ton with CASE II, it only gets CASE.

The Tech Base should be Advanced. Just because the current Prime config of an Omni has gear that's newer than its intro date doesn't mean it started with that config. It was just considered 'prime' at the time the TRO was made. In this case, the C and D configurations came in to being subsequent to the widespread introduction of the R-Lasers, even though the Templar OmniMech itself had existed prior to 3120.

The MUL's introduction date for the Cadaver is 3099.  The date should be 3094, according to this quote from both TRO: 3145 Mercenaries, p. 28 and TRO: 3145 (print), p. 90: "Despite its first appearance on the battlefield in 3094..."

This is a great time for a general reminder. When it comes to unit introduction dates, faction access and rules level, the Master Unit List is the top of the list for canon accuracy. That is not to say the MUL doesn't have mistakes, nor to ask you all to stop reporting errors.

What it is to say is, until corrected, always assume the MUL is correct and the published source is incorrect.

Hello,

Thanks for the reminder Welshman, I will word my posts a little more softly.  Here are a few more instances where I believe the MUL may be incorrect:

The introduction dates for GDR-1C and GDR-1D on the MUL - are the two dates mixed up?
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Gravedigger
TRO 3145 Clans, Gravedigger Entry, P. 36, Variants:
"The older GDR-1C can be found throughout the Inner Sphere in much greater numbers than the GDR-1D that replaced it."

The introduction date on the MUL for the Thor II is 3118
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Thor+Mk+II
TRO 3145 Clans, Thor II Entry, P.44:
"Lauded for its versatility and prized for its communication suite, the Thor II began replacing the Thor in 3093."
Additionally, the anecdote given in the "Deployment" section describes a Trial of Possession in 3097.

The introduction date on the MUL for the Kodiak II is 3115.
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Kodiak+II
TRO 3145 Clans, Kodiak II Entry, P. 50:
"Based upon the Kodiak 4, the Kodiak II entered production in 3095..."
Additionally, the "Capabilties" section describes a service bulletin in 3105.

The introduction date of the MUL for the URA-2A Ursa is 3112
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Ursa
TRO 3145 Lyran Commonwealth, Ursa Entry, P. 38, does not agree:
"The Ursa is a formidable quad ’Mech that premiered in the third decade of this century."

Even if that means that some units are more expensive even if they are less effective due to the quite inaccurate recalculation of their stats?

Just realized, that the http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/329/berserker-brz-a3 only got four pts of structure (so it's less robust by far) but it's PV is still calculated on it's BV.

It has 4 Structure because it is a 100-ton 'Mech with an IS-tech XL engine.  Armor is based on armor factor, Structure is based on tonnage and engine type.

The Zeus-X ZEU-X has a Intro Date of 3054.  It is listed as having Reactive Armor which wasn't introduced until 3063, a LB 20-X which wasn't introduced until 3058, a MRM-30 which also wasn't introduced until 3058, a composite chassis which wasn't introduced until 3061, and medium x-pulse lasers which weren't introduced until 3057.

At best this should mean that it was introduced in 3063, but the Zeus is a Lyran design and the reactive armor was originally developed by the Draconis Combine.  So really it should have an even later intro date than just 3063.

pfarland, the variant you're looking for is the Xanthos XNS-01. The -A part at the end was just an add-on by WizKids to note the weight class of the 'Mech for purposes of gear cards, pilot cards, and Solaris VII matches. Currently there is not a XNS-01 variant, although the one that most closely matches the MWDA miniature is the XNS-07 variant found in the "Record Sheets 3145: New Tech New Upgrades" pdf-only file.

Well, the only ones listed in the MUL are the XNT-20, XNT-30, XNT-40, and XNT-50.  None of those others are listed.  I noticed this because I'm running a campaign that takes place pre jihad and post Succession Wars.  I'm trying to make a Xotl style RAT just for the fact that I don't like having the same 11 (or less) mechs show up with a standard RAT.  My project blossomed into a Mega MUL - RAT one and I'm adding in the manufacturers and factories as well as the factions that use them and when (and if) units became extinct.  I'm using the Online MUL as a base and adding in info from other sources.  I'm just noticing various different issues as I go through and posting them up here to help out the developers.

And another possible error, though it may not be depending on your viewpoint.  The Wulfen has an intro date on the MUL as 3137.  That is it's design date, it didn't enter into production until 5 years later because of Clan Wolf's shift to the IS Occupation zone.

Is there a way no, or are there any plans to have a search function by tech type ?

For instance,  if I wanted all models of Battle Mech with Light Engines & CASE.
Or Aero Fighters with XL Engines
Or Mechs that use Endo Steel & Compact Gyros
Etc etc etc.

Things like this are on the future roadmap. We just can't say when that will be. The MUL is a free supplement to the BattleTech product line so it's development comes after the development that pays the bills so we can keep hosting the MUL (and things like that).

Thanks Welshman,  I know its free & isn't a priority, I was just curious if its something being considered.  Someone told me you can seach a few items like typing in TAG into the search field because it comes up in the QS/AS stats page but that only works for a couple item types.  So I just wondered if a more in depth function was a possibility in the future.  Thanks again.

Entry for Longbow LGB-0C versus LGB-0W...

http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Longbow

The LGB-0C at 2480 seems correct per XTRO: Primitives V.3, but the LGB-0W has the same intro date, yet wasn't this model introduced later on? I compared a few other primitives (Wasp, Thunderbolt, & Banshee) against their first "production" release...and they were all a few years later.

Given that fact...should the LGB-0W be updated to a few years after the LGB-0C?

Going off of the conversion process for Armored Components on p. 345 of StratOps, shouldn't the Juliano's Alpha Strike stats feature the ARM special, since it has an armored cockpit?

The No-Dachi -3X is missing its too, so maybe there's an error with armored cockpit checking.

Hello,

Thanks for the reminder Welshman, I will word my posts a little more softly.  Here are a few more instances where I believe the MUL may be incorrect:

The introduction dates for GDR-1C and GDR-1D on the MUL - are the two dates mixed up?
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Gravedigger
TRO 3145 Clans, Gravedigger Entry, P. 36, Variants:
"The older GDR-1C can be found throughout the Inner Sphere in much greater numbers than the GDR-1D that replaced it."

The introduction date on the MUL for the Thor II is 3118
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Thor+Mk+II
TRO 3145 Clans, Thor II Entry, P.44:
"Lauded for its versatility and prized for its communication suite, the Thor II began replacing the Thor in 3093."
Additionally, the anecdote given in the "Deployment" section describes a Trial of Possession in 3097.

The introduction date on the MUL for the Kodiak II is 3115.
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Kodiak+II
TRO 3145 Clans, Kodiak II Entry, P. 50:
"Based upon the Kodiak 4, the Kodiak II entered production in 3095..."
Additionally, the "Capabilties" section describes a service bulletin in 3105.

The introduction date of the MUL for the URA-2A Ursa is 3112
http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=Ursa
TRO 3145 Lyran Commonwealth, Ursa Entry, P. 38, does not agree:
"The Ursa is a formidable quad ’Mech that premiered in the third decade of this century."

Steve

Thanks.
All of these (and the Cadaver from the earlier post) have been edited to match the TR.  (the MUL was based on an earlier work in progress and...work progressed..)

Intro Date
"2777"

Change to...
"2767"

Notes: As per the TRO entry, the VLC-5Ns were upgraded with Hegemony tech by RWA troops during the Amaris Coup, putting this in the mid-2760s. 2777 was the final year of the entire conflict and does not seem relevant to the fluff description.

Hello, 

Not sure if this is errata or not but thought it might be something for someone to check out.

I just came across the GrassHopper-Reynolds from HTP:Luzern

The MUL has it as 2244 BV & a 22 pt AS value.
Sarna has it as 2344 BV.
When I was creating the unit in HMPro it also matched the Sarna 2344 value.

Maybe Sarna is wrong & HMPro isn't using the right stats, or maybe someone just keyed in a 2 instead of 3. 

Not sure but figured you might want to know.


Xotl: 2,344 is the right value.  Thanks!

I came a cross a couple units where the intro dates conflict with equipment they carry. I couldn't find dates for these units in the published TR they came from, so I'm not sure where the dates in the MUL came from and if they are an error in the MUL or an Errata in neded is some other published book or pdf. I've only found a couple so far (not shabby) so here they are:

TechManual lists the production date for the compact gyro.  The Great Turtle was introduced in 3067 as an experimental unit with a then-expiermental gyro, so that particular date doesn't apply in this case.

The KTO-21 Kintaro is in a messy position. We know it was used against the Smoke Jaguars from TRO3050U but that predates the introduction of C3i.  I'll have to raise that one internally.

I actually thought it was classified as Experimental because of the X-Pulse Lasers. I guess this does make sense in this case since 3068 would be the introduction date of mass production for the compact gyro (which happens to be a TL level at this time). The prototype design for TL equipment definitely would predate this intro date. Is there a hard and fast rule for this published anywhere or is it more of a grey area type of thing, such as "several years prior to the date", which is really open-ended?

Just a note, which should probably be added to the opening post.

Solaris units do not adhere to the tech introduction dates. These are complete one off units that are often dealing with technology that goes beyond Experimental to bleeding edge. When looking at technology introduction dates, don't list any Solaris units as examples of incorrect intro dates for either the technology or the Solaris unit.

Thank you,

Thanks for your responses. I think TO makes things much more clear as it lists the prototype production dates, which technically removes any vagueness. TM, because it only publishes intro dates makes it so confusing, or at least leaves the dates very open, as you've noted.

Solaris units do not adhere to the tech introduction dates. These are complete one off units that are often dealing with technology that goes beyond Experimental to bleeding edge. When looking at technology introduction dates, don't list any Solaris units as examples of incorrect intro dates for either the technology or the Solaris unit.

I'm not sure it's always easy for someone to identify is something is a Solaris unit. Unless that is it is published in something like TR: Solaris or RS: Solaris. Things that I see in 3067 or any other "normal" TR I wouldn't assume is a Solaris unit.

It's more of a gray area overall, although with TO equipment there's prototype dates, not just production grade dates.  Even there, there's some dates that could come under close scrutiny as we examine unit introduction dates that come to our attention as not quite lining up.

The Great Turtle rules level is a particularly messy situation, though.  We know when the unit was introduced - it has to have gone into the arenas before 20 December 3067, when TRO3055U is set.  But the rules levels that are applied in the book aren't the technological rules as they stood in 3067, but the standard ones from TW, TM, and TO.  So the X-pulse lasers, hardened armor, and torso-mounted cockpit are all still experimental, just as they were in 3067, but under TW/TM, the compact gyro had since gone into standard production.

By the way, by 3081, all of those systems are down to the advanced rules level, so if the GTR-1 had been introduced in 3082, it would be an Advanced design, not an Experimental one.

I'm not sure it's always easy for someone to identify is something is a Solaris unit. Unless that is it is published in something like TR: Solaris or RS: Solaris. Things that I see in 3067 or any other "normal" TR I wouldn't assume is a Solaris unit.

TRO3055U has a section in it specifically about Solaris designs.  You can also look at the faction - something we call out as the Solaris faction is a Solaris design.

A valid concern, but right now, they only exist in TRO3055U, and are all under a "SOLARIS VII BATTLEMECHS" subsection. I don't believe we have them anywhere else presently.

My design availability breakdown agrees with you, which is refreshing (Great Turtle GTR-1 (http://www.mordel.net/tro.php?a=vt&id=2796), click on the Availability link; this is how I have found this and other conflicts).

I think so. When I looked I didn't expand to see if it was a special section. Having that would definitely take any ambiguity out of the equation (as it does here).

There might be one or two Solaris-specific 'Mechs in XTRO Gladiators (as opposed to the other game worlds), but seeing it in that XTRO alone is a dead giveaway that the same general rules apply.

Another one up for discussion.

The Argus AGS-4D is listed in the MUL as Standard with a date of 3061. The issue is the Rotary AC/5 was introduced in 3062. Based on other discussions, having a Rotary AC/5 on a design before it was introduced to the masses is OK, but wouldn't this make the design Experimental since it would mean the Rotary AC/5 was still in the Prototype phase? I didn't see 3061 listed in TR3067, so I'm not sure where it came from for purposes of the MUL.

Or am I just being way to rigid with these dates and rules levels?

Now, the two pieces of equipment which cause an issue is the Improved C3 (which was already indicated that an errate will change that intro year to 3060) and the iNarc. Now the iNarc was indicated that an errata will change its year to 3061. However, this is still one year off. TR3050 Upgrade specifically states the year for this as 3060, so I'm guessing the errata for iNarc should be to bring it into 3060 (and not 3061)?

OK, I think that's fine and would fall into the gray area of the "standard" equipment dates and rules levels. So, because units could be equipped with weapons prior to the intro dates, they'd be classified as experimental since they weren't officially introduced yet. And because the rules level for a design is based on the level for it's equipment for that era, this fits as Standard since the heavy lasers were standard for the Clan Invasion era (not caring what year they were introduced).

However, if using this design in a specific year campaign, and that year was 3058, I would think this would have to be classified as Experimental since the heavy lasers have not yet been "introduced".  Does that reasoning sound logical?

This is a great area. The Hellfire would be experimental only in the year 3059, when the Heavy Laser was still not in mass production. Because that is only a single year, out of it's total history, we list it as standard rules level instead of making an experimental version of the Hellfire just to exist for that single year.

The game has enough flexibility in it that plus or minus a year is the general fudge factor for these things.

This is a great area. The Hellfire would be experimental only in the year 3059, when the Heavy Laser was still not in mass production. Because that is only a single year, out of it's total history, we list it as standard rules level instead of making an experimental version of the Hellfire just to exist for that single year.

The game has enough flexibility in it that plus or minus a year is the general fudge factor for these things.

Works for me. I'm not hellbent on making everything line up all beautifully (though my OCD really REALLY wants me too). I'll just keep pointing out the things which fall outside the defined windows and you guys can decide if there really is something worth changing or if they are OK as is.

The Exterminator EXT-5E (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/1006/exterminator-ext-5e) is listed in the MUL as Standard with a date of 3060. Now, the two pieces of equipment which cause an issue is the Improved C3 (which was already indicated that an errate will change that intro year to 3060) and the iNarc. Now the iNarc was indicated that an errata will change its year to 3061. However, this is still one year off. TR3050 Upgrade specifically states the year for this as 3060, so I'm guessing the errata for iNarc should be to bring it into 3060 (and not 3061)?

TR3050 gives a specific 3060 date for its debut, so adding a note for EXT-5E being experimental in 3060.

I've noticed all three QuadVees have Early Republic Era on them.  I don't think this is correct since the profile for all of them says they were introduced in 3136 which is Late Republic Era.

3136 is Dark Ages era. 
These all say Dark Ages for era now.  (I don't remember changing them, but I've been sick the past week, I may have forgotten fixing them...)

bunch of intro date changes.
All the APCs that were pre-2470 got pushed back to 2500.  We have primitive APCs now.  Also pushed forward some other generic vehicles (recovery, engineering).
Several units (Royal) got an pre-ER PPC version and a post-ER PPC version.
Many unique units that are using equipment pre-full production date got a note saying they were experimental for a while.
And then a bunch of c3i, light fusion, inarc, heavy ferro armor, er micro laser, heavy laser, improved jump jet units got pushed forward to appropriate dates (pending c3i, light fusion, inarc errata).  Usually this was just a year or two change.

What is interesting here is that the TR says "Though stripped of its advanced technology...", which indicates perhaps the issue is that this design should not have double heat sinks? Either that or the MUL needs to change to 3040 (I didn't see a specific date of 3035 here other then to say "3030s", and even that didn't specifically call out the KTO-20). Or perhaps a note gets added to indicate it is experimental from 3035-3039?

However the Snub-Nose PPC was not introduced until 2784.  Since the date is prior to the introduction date, it likely needs a note about how the unit is considered experimental from 2776-2783.

Something seems to be wrong with the STY-3C Starslayer introduction date. It's 3056 according to the MUL, but the -3C appears much earlier in canon already:

- The -3C was available to MacCarron's Armored Cavalry during the Marlette campaign in 3044 according to the MacCarron's Armored Cavalry sourcebook (writeup on p. 20; features in a scenario on p. 35, MW Drake Shandy). Context suggests it was a lostech SL cache find on Menke.

- the -3C appears on Historical: Operation Klondike RATs on pp. 146, 147, indicating the -3C existed by 2784. This was raised here (Ask the Writers) (http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php/topic,17624.msg400073.html#msg400073) and here (http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php/topic,4967.msg110578.html#msg110578) but wasn't answered so far.

Oddly enough, I would've believed it. This is BattleTech after all, and in our universe, just about anything is possible.

I look at the <Base> because you can't have a pod configuration with a date earlier then the base was available. So they just jump out at me.

What better reason to do something then to find someone else's flaws? That gets me in trouble with the wife, we'll see how it works out for me here.

Yes, but I was looking for a reason to do the work of creating the missing <base> models.  Doing so just so somebody can point out flaws isn't motivating me very much :).

The MUL is intended as the offical BV list.  It's supposed to list corrected BVs.  Now, if you've done the math and gotten a different answer (if using software to calculate, there's usually an option to show it's work and copy/paste that), then we've got a problem to discuss...  but there's no need to list where we've corrected a BV.  That's the MUL's job.

Are the two Historical: Liberation of Terra volumes set to have their respective units added to the Master Unit List at some point?

And, if so, would the AEM-01 Dragoon likely get separate entries (and Unit Cards) for its noted variants; or would each of those need to be given official Record Sheets in "classic" BattleTech first, before they could be written up in Alpha Strike terms?

@nckestrel - about the Dragoon

I see, thanks.

In this case, the "standard" AEM-01 has a Record Sheet on page 157 of H:LoT2. The Dragoon-02, -03, and -04 variant chasses do not, though there is some detail for each on page 144. (I'm not in a position to say if the descriptions there are enough to allow for any of them to be approximated right off the bat, or if one or moe of them would need to be formally published in Record Sheet form instead.)

The AEM-02 and 03 work fine based on the variant description though the 02 leaves .5 ton leftover. Perhaps it should also have case but was not mentioned??

As for the 04 it will need a RS as I could only make it work by removing the jump jets. It also leaves which weapon gets the higher ammo tonnage, the SRM-4 or the Gauss.

The 02 may need an armor crit moved but only if you leave he ER PPC in its orginal right arm location and push the AC/20 in the left arm which is where you have 1 armor crit (Ferro-Fibrous). Beyond that I don't think see any reason you could not add it to the MUL.

The 03 requires a little more as far as crit placement for the Ferro-Fibrous as the ammo and case push 3 crits of FF armor to other locations. This based on the variant description:
Quote
each provided with two tons of ammunition (most, but not all, of which was contained within the CASE protected left torso magazine);
This is assuming that 4 tons of ammo and the case are placed in the left torso (having two lrm-15s in the LA and the third plus ammo in the RA/RT locations).

BV from MML
02 - 1712
03 - 1700

For the 04 I have two BVs
04 with 2 tons Gauss ammo 1752
04 with 2 tons STM-4 ammo 1695

Thats the best I could come up with based on variant specs (or the lack thereof for the 04). Hope its useful.

They are certainly few, but we don't track few/many.  They have several, and that's enough to be listed.  The lists would certainly be much different if we removed everything no longer in production and/or not on RATs, that's not criteria we've excluded anything else on.

There were some introduced in the XTRO: Primitive series, which have no modern version of them.  Also the Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged has some as well as Era Digest: Age of War has couple, they're listed on saran, if you type in search window  Category:Primitive Combat Vehicles.   Any unit that assoiciate or IS a primitive unit, will pop up.   Its not perfect, but it has some things you can look over.

The original Vengeance - now labeled Vengeance (2682) - has had its introduction date changed from the original 2782 to 2682, but the era has been left as Early Succession War (2781 - 2900).

Either the introduction date is a typo and should still be 2782 or the era needs to be changed to Star League (2571-2780).

If the introduction date was deliberately changed as a way of addressing the earliest reference to a Vengeance class, it's still not early enough - see SLSB p57 - so perhaps both need to be changed.

I think the entry for the Ballista Artillery Trailer ( http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6330/ballista-artillery-trailer-standard ) is actually displaying some old data for the Ballista Self-Propelled Artillery Tank (Standard) ( http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6775/ballista-self-propelled-artillery-tank-standard )

To start with for some reason it has a move of 6"t when it should be 0"t as it generates no MP, but the BSPAT does move that fast

The BAT mounts two Arrow-4 Launchers and 2 ER Medium Lasers in a turret so it should have TUR( 1/1/0, ARTAIS-2) not ARTS-1 which does match the BSPAT.

The BAT used a Fusion engine but is listed with EE, again appropriate for the BSPAT

The BAT also mounts several AMS systems, including one in the turret, this should give it the AMS

And this is just what I noticed with a quick glance

NCKestrel: Correct, it was listed just as Ballista, and I matched it up to the wrong unit.  Corrected now.

Mordel is correct.

If you find a print product and the MUL disagree on something, assume the MUL is correct for the purpose of the immediate need (you're playing a game or something).

We still appreciate the notices because the MUL is not fool proof and sometimes it is in error. This is becoming less and less common as the MUL can be updated easily, print products cannot.

Correct, only RS generated under Total Warfare rules are considered valid for the MUL. When in doubt, if the RS doesn't same Catalyst Game Labs, it is probably not a current RS. There are a couple of exceptions, but for the most part all "current" RS have been made under the CGL flag.

Not an error.  The Schiltron B and Schiltron F both have IF-capable weapons that are mounted in both the turret and the front firing arc.  This gives them a larger IF ability when not splitting fire.

  I've been working away at ranking how available various mechs are for my own amusement, and I have been using RAT tables as a sort of low ranked data point while I go through the factions. One thing I have noticed is that a lot of them list mechs that are not available according to the MUL - I have a pretty good list of mechs in Field Manual 3145 and Field Manual 3085 RAT's that the tables and MUL disagree on, including some of the most common rolls.

  Is that something the MUL team would be interested in, or is that just written off as RAT's being wonky?

Technically, they should have Mercenary and Kell Hounds.  The KH and Wolf's Dragoons factions don't have access to the standard merc list.

I'm sorry to bring up the Mad Cat III 4 again but I'm also not entirely sure the damage block is correct; it has a long range value of two but the 'Mech has two LRM 20s. There very well could be a reason for this but as it stands this 'Mech has the same long range damage as an AS7-D which puts out half as many missiles.

LRM 20 = 12 damage.  *2 = 24.
It only has 6 shots per launcher so it will get the low ammo penalty.  24 * .75 = 18.
18/10 = 1.8, rounds up to 2.

Note the AS7-D takes advantage of a lucky break to get it's 2 at long range.   One LRM-20 is 12 damage.   12/10 = 1.2, rounds up to 2.

So they are two extremes of the 2 range (1.2 and 1.8), but they are both 2.

Additionally, it might be a good idea to split each model "Oppie" into two units, one (Salvage Bed) and one (DeConAid), as they would have different special abilities. Just a thought.

NCKestrel:   yes, on salvage bed and deconaid as separate units, no stats for them yet.  the missing battle armor move codes and CV SRCH are added (cards will refresh within 24 hours).

NCKestrel:It's listed as Unique for the Jihad era, and is not listed as unique for the Early Republic era.
While technically fall of 3085 is within the last year of the Jihad era, by the time it then got shipped to combat units we'd be talking maybe a month of service before the end of the era?  I'd rather ignore that month then mark the entire Jihad era as non-unique.

Post by: solmanian on 17 May 2014, 09:22:43
Noticed something strange... While looking for AS trait, apparently order is important. Writing "ECM, STL" and "STL, ECM" would yield different results...
ECM, STL:
http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=&HasBV=false&MinTons=&MaxTons=&MinBV=&MaxBV=&MinIntro=&MaxIntro=&MinCost=&MaxCost=&HasBFAbility=ecm%2C+stl&BookAuto=&FactionAuto=
And
http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=&HasBV=false&MinTons=&MaxTons=&MinBV=&MaxBV=&MinIntro=&MaxIntro=&MinCost=&MaxCost=&HasBFAbility=stl%2C+ecm&BookAuto=&FactionAuto=

Edit: Also some of them are on both lists.
Looks like you need to put the traits alphabetically to get the full results.

NCKestrel: The Alpha Strike special abilities search doesn't really support multiple special abilities.  It's a simple text search that will find exactly what you type in there.  Searching for ECM,STL won't find one that has an entry of ECM,CASE,STL since the text doesn't exactly match.  Limitation of how it works.

From an email:

4416/Kalki Cruise Missile Launcher:  ARTCM-5 instead of ARTCM5 - it actually looks like the SturmFuer was the one that is wrong and not following the format of the other artillery specials
5831/Savage Coyote Z:  ITAM1 instead of IATM1 - fixed back in April
6662/Scapha Hovertank D:  I-NARC instead of INARC - fixed
6709/Celerity/CLR-04-R:  Has TSEMP-O1 instead of TSEMP - unless I'm missing an updated recordsheet, it is a OS TSEMP and not a regular TSEMP.
6775/Ballista Self-Propelled Artillery Tank (Standard):  Has ART-S1 instead of ARTS-1 - fixed
22/Akuma/AKU-2XC:  Has C3BS instead of C3BSS - fixed

Currently when doing a search (Faction - Capellan Confederation, Sub Type - Battlemech, Production Era - Age of War, Star League, & Early Succession War)...anything listed as Inner Sphere General does not show up.

I think if they are Inner Sphere General, shouldn't they just show up, or do I always have to select Inner Sphere General in the "Faction" listing?

Feel free to delete this if I'm just a bit slow today, just thought they would always show if they are general and we would not have to select the specific listing each time.

This is correct. Selecting CapCon gets you everything that's specifically CapCon. To get everything a faction has access to, you have to select that faction and any general lists that apply.

2) Basic Filters
I don't know what to enter where, as all I can see is this:
(https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/a1e1/43i5b8z2a3ycup96g.jpg)

3) Please change the font back, as it use to be.

4) Divide units into "tabs" (or how to call it) according main unit types (such as BattleMech, VTOL, Battle Armor, etc, as it used to be, please.

5) Please delete those barely recognizable black icons.

The screen for me shows all listings in that box fully. It could be that your resolution is too low, mine was that way at work as we have smaller monitors there (17"), or your using it on a Phone/Tablet...I have the same issue there. Once I pushed up the res a bit, it was fine. At home, I've never had a problem as I have a 28" monitor, but I don't even run the browser full screen, roughly about 3/5 of the screen is used.

As far as your other complaints, I agree with you on the BV listings. Font looks ok to me, just different. Tab/Links were nice, but this is fine too, just have to get used to it. As far as the icons, I can see them fully.

The only thing I have to ask on the new redesign is reinstating the sort buttons on the list headings (the little arrows next to the name, tonnage, BV, intro date, etc.). Those were useful in finding particular units quicker.

It seems that the UI has been modified overnight. It's much better now. Thank you.

But there are still two things:

1) Listing all units, even without BV as default behavior.
Every time I am looking for something, I still have to go to "Basic Filters" and then uncheck that option to make sure that I see all units (and that unneedful clicking gets old really fast).

2) Show complete list of factions to choose from.
I remember that the first original version of MUL had such functionality. I used to click on "Factions" and then I just clicked on factions I was interested in. It was very simple and convenient.

But now the searching is much more complicated. It will be best if I show you it on example: When I am searching for available units for my faction, firstly I must click on "Factions". Then I must write "Free" and wait until the autocomplete offers me "Free Worlds League". I click on it. Then I must write "Free" and wait again until the autocomplete offers me "Free Worlds League (Marik-Stewart Commonwealth)". I click on it again. Then I repeat it again for Free Worlds League (Tamarind) and I click again. Then I repeat it again for the Free Worlds League (Rim Commonality) and click again. Then again for Oriente. etc.

It means a lot of clicking, writing and waiting ..., especially if in the original MUL UI it was a matter of two seconds, as I said.

If I list units by tonnage the variants of the same unit are often spread out which makes it quite annoying to find stuff. For example I get 4 Stingers then 8 other mechs (Locusts Wasps ect) until I get the next two Stingers,

However I think the main problem I have is that units with a Star (those shown in the TRO) are kept seperately from those units without a Star- which leads to the chaos I mentioned. I have all 'stared' units first, then the variants.

The Master Unit List was updated today with new Alpha Strike cards using the new Point Values (PV), Minimal Damage rule (0*), special abilities (REAR, FUEL, etc) from the Alpha Strike Companion.  If the unit has a card, as of today, it has been updated.

Battle Armor is currently showing 4-man squads for Alpha Strike cards.  We've got a new system in place to allow each Battle Armor to have a separate card for 4, 5 and 6 man squads, but we're still working on how to get the data in the database.  For now, it's showing 4-man squads only.

MAL-XT. At medium range.
4 * LB5-X = 4 * .315 = 1.26.
4 * ERML = 4 * .5 = 2
3.26 total medium damage.
24 heat sink dissipation and (26 heat generated -4) means we don't have to worry about heat.
Plenty of ammo.
3.26 rounds up to 4.

I'm seeing a 4 at medium as well.   And a 3 at short (LB5-Xs drop to .236, for total 2.944 damage, rounds up to 3).

EDIT: and that should change the PV to 43.  data changed, card should update within 24 hours.

for all units, the TMM shouldn't include the jumping movement (at all).  So both of those are wrong, as you say they should be 3.  But also the VND-1R should be a 1, not a 2, etc.
The TMM is generated automatically by the site, so pinging our site wizard for this.  May be a while to correct.

-BV of Procyon 5 listed at 179, should be 196
-BV of Procyon 4 listed at 191, should be 182
-BV of Procyon 3 listed at 169, should be at 163
-BV of Orc 4 listed at 137, should be at 138
-BV of Orc 5 listed at 170, should be at 174

Hello,

I posted this in the AS board, but maybe this is the right place.

A double check on the iconic Hunchback IIC.

http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/1568/hunchback-iic-standard (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/1568/hunchback-iic-standard)

My calculations get me a AS stat of 4/4/0 and a OV 2 for this brawler.

(3*.75)+(3*.75)+.7+.7 = 5.9 FRU to 6 for max damage.  75% on the UAC/20s for lack of ammo. 

24 (HS) / (14+14+7+7+4-4) = .63 * 5.9 = 3.7 FRU to 4 for Standard damage.

Please let me know the above calculation is correct.

For Long Range the Mech has one ER PPC tied to a Targeting computer. 

Damage is 1 * 1.1 (TC) = 1.1 and FRU = 2.  There is no reduction of damage for heat at long range.  17 Heat and 32 HS.

Yep it's a 1 point wonder.

I believe the availability for the Vulpes may require review. Reading the TRO (pdf) entry the deployment section states that the Vulpes is in use by both the DCMS and CCAF and may appear in at least one mercenary command. While I understand that it may exist in such limited numbers among mercenaries that MUL availability is not necessary my reading of the entry leads me to believe that the Vulpes should be listed as available to the DCMS and CCAF.

Good enough for me. Thanks for checking it out.

I'm really not surprised as from what I understand units must be available in significant quantity to qualify for MUL availability.

I can't imagine what a chore availability must be for the MUL team.

If it's already been addressed I apologize but are there any guidelines for determining availability? I realize that the MUL team is forced to make a lot of judgment calls but if community members can help I'm sure many of us would.

There are no rules, but some general guidelines we use are
1) what the source says :).  though as with the Vulpes, that often still leaves a lot of arguing.  i meant debate, right?
2) there must be multiple of the unit in multiple regiments/clusters. 
  a) one "common" exception to this is if otherwise the unit would not be available to anyone at all.  Uniques for example.  The jihad era Assassin that only had one production run. etc.
3) unless a source specifically mentions it as available in numbers (see #2 above), we don't add for salvage.  The list would explode into meaninglessness pretty quickly.
4) lately, for the last couple TRs, we get a document before the TR entry is even written that says which factions it should be available to.

Should the Stealth -1D have SRM Special ability of SRM 1/1/0?

It has a standard SRM 6, enough ammo, and no heat issues.

SRM 6 is .8 damage in AS and Fractions Round normal for special abilities thus round to 1 point.

Post by: Louie N on 03 October 2014, 20:57:52
Thanks for the clarification.

I read the paragraph in the Alpha Strike companion as 1 point after rounding normally gets you the ability.  The best way I will remember this, and this may help others in their conversion, is that for those three abilities, SRM, LRM, and AC, less than 1 damage rounds to zero and all other cases round normal. 

Unfortunately, I have to go back a fix some custom AS cards.   :(

While we are at this- any news about the Spectre Ba's availability for the periphery ( Qurey I had posted here the last time:

Spectre BA, found in TRO 3145 Mercenaries.

Yet only a few factions have access to it in the MUL.  Suggestion: Add it to Periphery General List.

Or is this one of the cases where- while the RAT and TRO indicates it widely spread- the unit's numbers in most periphery states is too low to get them mentioned in the MUL?

While we are at this- any news about the Spectre Ba's availability for the periphery ( Qurey I had posted here the last time:
?

Or is this one of the cases where- while the RAT and TRO indicates it widely spread- the unit's numbers in most periphery states is too low to get them mentioned in the MUL?

The TRO3145 development notes for the Spectre list mercs, Filtvelt, Ravens and Calderon Protectorate as the factions that field the unit, as reflected by the MUL. The TRO fluff is meant to convey that the suit spread from the Prot to the Ravens and Filtvelt, plus to mercs. Those seen across the Per/IS are meant to be in merc service. RATs are always an imperfect guide, providing a quick and dirty way of building a force, with the Spectre results on the Per (Gen) table in ER3145 meant to recognize the large numbers of Spectres in Prot, Ravens and Filtvelt hands, plus (secondary) the possibilities of mercs serving a Per employer. Other Per states might pick up a few Spectres, probably for evaluation if nothing else, but numbers will be way low and thus not enough for a MUL entry.

Giving a pump to my Black Knight question.

http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/356/black-knight-bl-12-knt (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/356/black-knight-bl-12-knt)

Long Range Damage value for the Black Knight -12. At long range the Mech has one ER PPC tied to a Targeting computer. 

Calc is...

Damage is 1 * 1.1 (TC) = 1.1 and FRU = 2.  There is no reduction of damage for heat at long range.  17 Heat and 32 HS.

Is this correct?

Thanks

correct, the value has been changed, the card should update within 24 hours.
thanks.

4) lately, for the last couple TRs, we get a document before the TR entry is even written that says which factions it should be available to.
I'm kind of a fanatic about the availability issue, is there any chance for documents regarding the faction availabilities will become available to the public?

Also, when exactly did the practice start (year or TR)?

You'll know the information has been generated by it appearing on the MUL. The pre-production planning documents are wholly unsuitable for public consumption. All information from them is included in the Technical Readouts, Record Sheets, and MUL, in one form or another, unless changed during production for any number of reasons.

Trust me, you might think they'd be interesting, but they're really not. There's not even a special format or letterhead. It's basically just a table of contents with some notes. All that seeing the pre-production documents would do is start arguments ("Clan Wobbly Weasel was SUPPOSED to get the new UltraMech, but this was omitted during writing because Brock Writerman HATES THE CLANS!").

Scout DropShip entry (under 'Aerospace' units, cited source: Mercenary's Handbook 3055; I'm not talking about the Scout JumpShips found under 'Advanced Aerospace')

Error:
1. The image shown is that of a (Scout-class) JumpShip. The craft in question is a DropShip so this is definitely the wrong image. (Unit type correctly says "Aerospace - DropShip")
2. Not sure why the name is given as "Scout (Standard)"; this seems to be a carryover from the JumpShip of the same name which also has a Clan version and a subvariant in the Quetzalcoatl-class.

Suggested fix:
1. Remove image.
2. Rename DropShip entry to simply "Scout".

Standard is standard MUL naming nomenclature. It indicates which version of the unit it is. We tend to do this even when there is only one version as there may be another one in the future.

Copied from the site news
"Skyhigh added a new feature a while ago, I just wanted to point it out to everyone.   Next to Units (in search, or on the Unit's page) is a +Force button.  Clicking this button will give you a note about the unit being added to your force.  You can do this multiple times, with the same unit or other units.

Then when you go to the Force page (from the top menu), you will see a list of all the units you have added to this Force.  You can remove units if you'd like, or clear the entire Force.   

Finally there's a Print icon in the upper right.  From here you can choose to print a unit list (basically like you see on the page) or Alpha Strike cards (or both).  This actually creates a PDF that you can then either save or print."

Offensive:  (2+2+2)+2 = 8
Defensive:  (11 * 0.25) + 1 + (4 * 1.5) + 5 + (2 * 0.5) = 15.75

In addition not everyone use PV, so getting game play rules out are never held up for BV or PV. We went over two years from the publishing of TechManual to the release of the MUL with official BV 2.0.

According to the record sheet on pg. 27 of Record Sheets: Operation Klondike the mech has a standard fusion engine and an Armor Factor of 88.

The chart on pg. 98 of Alpha Strike Companion (ASC) shows a 30 ton mech with a standard fusion engine to have a structure value of 3.

Armor value (from ASC pg. 95): 88/30=2.93 which rounds to 3.

All TROs with info on this unit say it was an "SLDF design" and intended for Kerensky's war against the Amaris Empire. But in 2771, the production date, the SLDF was nowhere near Graham IV or Mitchell Vehicles' satellite installations. They didn't arrive to liberate this world until 2776. So...

(1) Was this a design commissioned by the SLDF during the Reunification War, but put into service with by Amaris Empire?

..or..

(2) Is the 2771 intro date in error?

Not an errata but I don't know where to ask this question.
The MUL is still missing faction availability for RS3145:NTNU and RS3145 RoTS.
Is there a plan to change this? As far as I understand there are already faction availability notes for each new design.
Some of these are very interesting units IMHO.
Once again a congratulation is in order for every one working on the MUL it's a wonderful resource.

I use the MUL a lot, and I like it, but I would really like to see wider faction & era support. Right now we have quite a lot of missing factions such as 'The Society' and such. But even existing (old) factions that are there such as the 'Star League Royal'  and 'Rim Worlds Republic' are often not filled with units.

I know that all this would take a lot of time, but is there any plan for tackling these blind spots?

You guys do a lot. We just have to populate a faction with the basics and then put it out for Beta. That still takes time.

Also the MUL team works on other projects now and it's always a factor of priority. We are doing our best.

Hi, I realize that Record Sheets for Vehicle Annex's 'Mechs and Exoskeletons will be done when MUL Team has time.
However, i found a non-Record Sheet issue related to one of the units listed on the MUL. So I'm reporting it so it's can be listed as issue.

*Unit Name: CattleMaster
*Source: Technical Readout: Vehicle Annex, Revised
*Problem: Unit model designation is wrong in the MUL.  Technical Readout:VAR's notes that Herder and Hunter variants as CTL-3R "Herder" and CTR-2R "Hunter", the MUL lists them as RA-4 (Herder) and RA-4 (Hunter).

My question is are the 'Mech designs mentioned in FASA's BattleTech: The Battle For Twycross #1653, still canon ?, as they were described in the source book but I've never seen any canon Record Sheet(s) for the various 'Mech designs described (pages 30-31 of pdf) no variant designations are given besides 'Mech types :

Commando(s)
Javelin(s)
Jenner(s)
Ostscout
Cicada

What is to be replaced is mentioned and to add ECM but as per old FASA "days" nothing is mentioned about left over weight(s) if any.

As from what was mentioned in the 'fluff text' these 'variants seemed to be common ECM / Recon units in Federated Commomwealth service rather than "in House" company variants.

Thank you.

From RS: 3075 - The Cutting Edge
Basilisk 3 BV marked at 296, should be 306 from my calculations.

Calculated by hand:

Defensive BV
31 (total armor) x 2.5 = 77.5
17(total IS)  x 1.5 = 25.5
(77.5 + 25.5) x (1.3 [+3 TM] + 0.1 [proto])= 144.2

Offensive BV
108 (er medium laser) x 1.5 (speed factor) = 162

162 (offensive BV) + 144.2 (defensive BV) = 306.2, round down to 306

Basilisk 3 is also missing introduction date.

Just to elaborate some more on this, we have a fair number of units that will need to have their production eras updated. I think it is about 600 minus 20 or so units that do not have a solid introduction date due to only being stat-less referenced. We are looking to see if we can do this via a query and change them all at once or if we will need to hand alter them. I'm hoping to have them done by the end of the weekend either way. You may see the old plain Late Succession War era reappear briefly while this work is being done. It was on the to do list already but it got bumped higher on the to do list to correct this.

Sure, but Starterbook: Sword and Dragon, p.47 says that this particular 'Mech was just a salvaged piece, and it was Hermes II when it was captured. Only after that it was customized with large lasers.

So it's just one salvaged and rebuilt machine. There is no mention in TRO3025, TRO3039, Sorenson's Sabres or Starterbook: Sword and Dragon that would suggest that there are more twin-laser Hermes III in the Draconis Combine than just the aforementioned refitted 'Mech.

 All canon examples of the 4K are Kuritan.  It's labeled K. Both of those facts are specific to the 4K and can override comments about the chassis overall. It's not the main variant, so all the comments about the overall chassis are not conclusive in referring to a variant.
If you have evidence that actually refers to the 4K and not the Hermes II in general, let me know.
Otherwise the MUL is canon (or will be once out of beta).

Clarification:  I'm saying 4K will keep DC (and FRR).  I'm open to discussing (among the MUL team), adding FW. 

And hopefully final clarification: House Marik says Kurita bought stock Hermes II and parts in order to do the refits themselves.  Along with the other information (it only ever being listed as used by Kurita), the Hermes III 4K is DC (and FRR) only.

TRO:3050U indicates this variant went into production (along with the Flashman-9M) when Word of Blake took over the production facilities on Hesperus II, while Blake Ascending p250-251 indicates Word of Blake didn't have control of the factory until 3070.

The -9B's introduction date should probably be moved back to 3070 (the -9M is already listed as such). I'm unaware of any source that indicates it was introduced as a refit at an earlier time, and given that it uses a different engine and cockpit than any previous model it makes more sense as a factory model.

Hello, while NCKestrel has kindly provided you with our development reasoning, I will remind you that the Master Unit List is a Canon instrument and sits above sourcebooks for determination of faction access, introduction date, battle value and Alpha Strike stats.

So if the MUL says a unit belongs to a certain faction, that supercedes prior published text. And the MUL team creates the MUL, based on well defined development guidelines.

As we all know, continuity has always been a challenge and under previous companies it was even more of a challenge. That requires Catalyst to make decisions which may not always align with prior written work.

Wrong stats in AS card. I'm not wizard with AS stat calculations, but it obviously been mistakenly given the stats of an assault battlemech, rather than an unarmed, light AgroMech.

Also, in the jihad faction list, I find it unlikely that Wolf's Dragoons, Kell Hounds and other mercs would have much need for said light, unarmed AgroMech.

Given that the fluff for the R4M is it being a variant the FWLM wanted to try as alternative to the base R4L, they were delivering to two foreign powers. Maybe the story is that the customs inspectors on Corey are just really bad at their jobs.  :D

"In return, Janos Marik has recently contracted to purchase 50 new heavy 'Mechs including Marauders and Dragons..."

"A handful of -3R and -4R Gladiators can still be found in the hands of planetary militias and low-tier mercenary commands."

This is a good time to remind folks that the Master Unit List considers Faction Access to be "sufficient numbers as to be able to to make an appearance in a good portion of a faction's military." It does not track every instance and edge case of units being in a Faction's possession.

The Faction List answers the question "Is this something the faction has reliable access to?" There will always be exceptions to the rule, which allows the "If it works for your table" spirit of BattleTech to prevail. It also allows writers to use any units they feel fits their story, without worrying about the MUL Faction level access.

So if Sun-Tzu were to give his darling bridge a lance of Osprey BattleMechs for a wedding present, that does not mean the Magistracy of Canopus now has faction access to the  Osprey.

oh, so i'm not going crazy. excellent  :D

The Master Unit List can neither confirm nor deny such a state. It only can tell you if you have Faction access to insanity.

Thank you,

The Champion CHP-1N2 is listed as being available to IS General, as well as Mercenaries, the Kell Hounds and Wolfs Dragoons in the Late Succession Wars -  LosTech Era.  I can accept the 'Goons, being of Clan descendant and all.
But the rest? This Mech seems to be way to advanced for general distribution in this time frame.
In the late renaissance era why not. The Powers had to beginn with the modernization somewhere, somewhen and with something.
But in between 2901 and 3019 it seems a little bit weird.

What about naturally rare Battlemechs like Hellstar and Dire Wolf, that are rare even among the clans (and in the Daishi case not even in production anymore, as far as we know), yet are listed as available to many IS factions, who are likely to have maybe a dozen each with no reliable access to spare parts?

The rarity of the design also factors in. Also not all fluff is created equal either. TRO fluff has said the Daishi is very rare, fiction and actual usage in canon products seems to go the other way.

The art/ science of MUL Faction list is deep and murky. There is a reason we offer mental health benefits for the MUL team.

There is also a bit of usability.
The Inner Sphere has clan tech in use.  An IS player needs something to use when told in a Field Manual that the regiment has 10-15% clan tech.  Perhaps most of it is "custom refits", but most of those do not have canon sheets. Assuming most came from Smoke Jaguar, we assigned a few of the most common Smoke Jaguar mechs as available to the IS so there is something they can fill those spots with.

Yes, thank you for clarifying.

As always, folks, we must remember this is a game and the goal of the MUL is to be a useful tool to enhance game play, not a straight jacket for rules lawyers to bind up their fellow players in.

Why are some units listed as 'Unavailable' during the Jihad though they debut during that era ?

For example: http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/942/ebony-meb-9

Insufficient production levels until after 3086? Bad salesmen? Shipments stuck in customs and a forest of Lyran-produced red tape?

The date of the end of the Jihad moved..

So the Jihad ends... 3081? There are still a number of units (~15 mechs) that debuted between 3082 and 3085 that have factional assignments for the Jihad era. Does this mean a sufficient quantity of them existed in the late 3070s / early 3080s to get them on the list before they reached full production?

According to the MUL, the 25 ton ForestryMech ED-X3 (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/7160/forestrymech-ed-x3) is listed as entering production in 2865, but has an Era of Late Succession War - Lostech (2901 -3019). It's heavier progenitor, the 30 ton Crosscut LoggerMech ED-X1 (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/7166/crosscut-ed-x1-loggermech) series, is shown to have started production back in 2650, per the MUL as well.

My question, based on the Crosscut ED-X4 LoggerMech (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/4024/crosscut-ed-x4-loggermech) being listed as entering production in 2876 with an Era of Early Succession War (2781 - 2900), is whether or not the lighter version should be rolled into Early Succession War status instead?

I know this is really picky, but for some reason it's striking me as odd.

Linking records together is only done if they have the same name. We have no control over that except by changing the name.

The Tiamat will show on a standard search if you have it include 0 BV units. I added the BV so it should show now even if you don't uncheck the box about BV.

I think I found an error, but I'm not sure if the error is in the Record Sheets, or on the MUL ...so I'm posting it here.

MadCat (Timberwolf) "Bounty Hunter" variant:  http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/1976/mad-cat-timber-wolf-bounty-hunter

Current Specials: ECM, LTAG, ENE, OMNI
Current PV: 50

According to Record Sheets 3050 Upgrades Unabridged, Clan and Star League (p.119), this variant also mounts an Active Probe which, per the AlphaStrike Companion (p.117) confers the "PRB" and "RCN" specials.

This change will also directly increase the PV cost of the variant by +3 (+1 for PRB, +2 RCN) per the Ground Unit Force Bonuses Table (ASC p.140)

Suggested Change to Specials = "ECM, LTAG, PRB, RCN, ENE, OMNI"
Suggested PV = 53


Xotl: It should be 53 pts.  Thanks!

I have a question on the Buccaneer -3R.

And since the only factory for the design was on Gibson, I have to ask if it's just oversight or are these two factions using salvaged chassis?

For the pre-Phoenix Ostroc, Ostsol, and Ostscout, outline and/or PP art is still being used. Per this post (http://"http://bg.battletech.com/forums/miniatures/the-unseen-a-reseen-iic-explanation-and-a-list-(updated-november-2014)/msg326119/#msg326119"), those models are no longer Unseen and may use the original TR3025 and 3050 art.

I think I see what the issue is here.

Record Sheets 3085 lists the Wolfhound without the ejection system. Record Sheets 3085 Unabridged The Cutting Edge lists it with the ejection system. I believe the one in CE is right as the TRO makes reference to ejection system.

A couple suggestions:

It would be awesome to include the faction and operation dates for each unit. Our group tries to do a lot of Era/date specific battles and having that info on the Alpha Strike cards is a huge help.

Our group is playing Classic BattleTech with a lot of custom made mechs. The biggest issue we have is with the PV calculation as there does not appear to be a good tool for that. Are there any plans to provide a web based tool for converting mechs?

Also, I have been saving each card I use to a local file so I can create lances easily. When I save the image it tries to save without a file extension instead of the JPG.

Many of the designs that showed up first in SO, and then were subsequently stat'd out in the FR2765 products have two listings in the MUL. One presumably a placeholder with just the SO information, and then another with all the information that was released after the design was stat'd.

For instance, the Athena is Here (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/3746/athena-standard) and Here (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6993/athena-standard)

The Faslane, League, and Narukami also examples of this, and might be a few more, not sure.

LRM/SRM Carrier (Primitive) both lack intro dates. The AC Carrier (Primitive) gives 2440 which is also what is listed for all three in Primitives 2 (actual intro shows circa 2440). The entry in Primitvies 2 gives two possible names for the AC Carrier. The first is AC Carrier under the main unit stats, but in the weapons loadout section it shows AC/2 Carrier. Wouldn't this make the MUL entry also need to show AC/2 Carrier rather than AC Carrier?

Randolph Support Vehicle has no intro date in the MUL but shows Circa 2300 as its intro in Primitives 2. As the AC Carrier does not use an exact date wouldn't the date listing in Primitives be used rather than a blank field?

NCKestrel: intro date fields updated.

Two questions involving the Behemoth (Stone Rhino).

First off, the variant introduction date order is currently: 4, 5, 1, 6, 2, 3. Is that correct? Did the 4 and 5 appear before the standard?

Second question: is the art ok? The 4, 5 and 6 use the original Behemoth artwork, which is (to the best of my knowledge) still unseen. Meanwhile, the 1, 2 and 3 use the reseen artwork - but it's blacked out. I can understand that for the standard, but why the 2 and 3?
Title: Re: Master Unit List (MUL) Online Database - READ THE FIRST POST
Post by: Moonsword on 12 April 2015, 08:13:06
The 4 and 5 were very early models that predated the standard.  However, they were only assigned official designators more recently in the Inner Sphere, so the nomenclature is a bit confused.

I can't comment on the artwork.

Huh. Actually, I've made a discovery that might just affect this. Will report back after posting a question to the writers.

Edit: Never mind, I found where I'd made a mistake. I had thought that some of the TR3055 Clan second-line machines might not be Unseen after all*, but I was led astray by the copyright date on TR3055 Revised. The same volume is also very clear that the 'Mech designs were copyrighted by VMI, not just the specific pieces of art. Oh, well.

* Four 'Mechs were included in the Clan Jade Falcon sourcebook, and several others were pictured, such as the Behemoth.

Conflicting intro dates?

LRM Carrier (Standard) 2407 MUL
LRM Carrier (Primitive)  2440 XTRO Primitives II

SRM Carrier (Standard) 2407
SRM Carrier (Primitive)  2440

Shouldn't those dates be reversed?
The only option I really see is using the intro from the AC/2 Carrier (Standard) of 2520

I bring this up as the following quote would actually fall in line with the gap of 2440 and 2520 (or perhaps errata Primitives 2 intros to 2420 or 2407 to be in line with the LRM intro of 2400 and/or 2370 for SRMs)

From TRO 3039 on the missile carriers (LRM and SRM)
Quote
Based on designs centuries older, the current Missile
Carriers (Quik-based or otherwise) follow roughly the same
template.

It's a minor nit pick but does make more sense and gives the primitive version almost 100 years of service life.

I may be mistaken but I believe the KGC-009 King Crab (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6635/king-crab-kgc-009) Alpha Strike card should have AC 1/1/-

NCKestrel: It would, if it weren't for heat.  Twin LAC/5s would be, in ASC terms, 1 damage and therefore meet the 1 damage requirement to list AC.  But it can build up 38 heat and only has 28 heat sinks.   1 * 28 / (38-4) = .82.  That no longer meets the 1 damage requirement and so the KGC-009 does not receive the AC special ability.

* VERSION: Printed 1st Edition

* THE ERROR: The version given is the ARC-2W which (according to the Master Unit List) didn't appear before 3022 (Anton's Revolt is set in 3014).

* THE CORRECTION: Either switch to the standard Archer ARC-2R in the table or lower the date of creation for the ARC-2W in the MUL. I would suggest the latter as the 2W's are factory refits from Hephaistos Station and Hephaistos Station (and it's rebuilding capabilities) was with the Dragoon's from the beginning.

From RS: 3075 - The Cutting Edge
Basilisk 3 BV marked at 296, should be 306 from my calculations.

Calculated by hand:

Defensive BV
31 (total armor) x 2.5 = 77.5

(77.5 + 25.5) x (1.3 [+3 TM] + 0.1 [proto])= 144.2

162 (offensive BV) + 144.2 (defensive BV) = 306.2, round down to 306

With a handful of exceptions, TSEMP units were being undercosted.  Thanks to work by nckestrel, all such units have been adjusted to reflect their proper cost.

Also, the Shadow Hawk LAMs have been given updated costs (only increased by a point).  These may change further as we continue to tinker with the PVs for these units prior to errata being issued.

OK, a few more BV fixes. These were mostly the result of the AP Gauss Rifle ammo weight being reduced from 40 kgs per shot to 25 kgs per shot on ProtoMechs. Interestingly enough, the incorrect value was only used for BV calculations - all of the affected units have no weight issues. Changes are:
-Siren 5: from 105 BV to 104 BV
-Satyr 4: from 109 BV to 107 BV
-Hydra 4: from 221 BV to 220 BV
-Roc 4: from 297 BV to 295 BV

Double checked and updated. Thanks.

One more ProtoMech BV fix, I swear I'll stop one day. Sprite 3 BV should be at 439, currently at 420. Calculated by hand.

Code: [Select]
SPRITE 3
Defensive BV
65 (armor) x 2.5 = 162.5
35 (IS) x 1.5 = 52.5
(162.5 + 52.5) x 1.4 = 301
TOTAL: 301

Offensive BV
11 (fusillade)
11 (fusillade)
37 (medium chem laser)
37 (medium chem laser)
5 (mcl ammo - 30)
(11 + 11 + 37 + 37 + 5) x 1.37 = 138.37
TOTAL: 138.37

301 (defensive BV) + 138.37 (offensive BV) = 439.37
FINAL BV: 439

Conflicting intro dates?

LRM Carrier (Standard) 2407 MUL
LRM Carrier (Primitive)  2440 XTRO Primitives II

SRM Carrier (Standard) 2407
SRM Carrier (Primitive)  2440

Shouldn't those dates be reversed?
The only option I really see is using the intro from the AC/2 Carrier (Standard) of 2520

I bring this up as the following quote would actually fall in line with the gap of 2440 and 2520 (or perhaps errata Primitives 2 intros to 2420 or 2407 to be in line with the LRM intro of 2400 and/or 2370 for SRMs)

It's a minor nit pick but does make more sense and gives the primitive version almost 100 years of service life.

And I kinda forgot to check the errata for the above. With the LRMs coming out as late as 2315 for the larger series, suggest that the LRM Carrier Intro could be moved to 2340 (instead of 2440) which gives the primitive about 70 years of service and *almost matches the fluff from 3039. As for the SRM Carrier.. 2377 maybe, I really don't know.. but the intro for the primitives version of both vehicles should not be after the standard vehicles.

Problem: RD-1R Roadrunner (Emerald Harrier) introduction date is given as 3112 in both the MUL and XTRO:Republic I. However, its canonical fluff in XTRO:Republic I states that the design is much older. It predates the Clan Invasion and individual units were observed with Jade Falcon forces in the 3050s, when the Emerald Harrier was already out of production again.
The actual initial production date would thus have been significantly earlier than 3050, "during the Golden Century" according to the writeup.

In a similar vein, the DVS-2 Devastator was initially designed by Kerensky himself just before the outbreak of the Amaris Civil War, the original specs were recovered in 3023 and the original 'Mech put in production by 3048 (after the downgraded DVS-1D in 3036). But in this case only six prototypes were built before 3048 so that year is arguably correct for proper line manufacture.

Winterhawk APC
MUL intro 3113
Fluff intro 3059 (first run), restarted in 3119

Per fluff here
Quote
Originally produced in 3059, it was unusual
for the time in utilizing a fuel cell engine.
As such it was distrusted by the LAAF command
and relegated to backwater militias and corporate
forces. The Winterhawk performed acceptably
in such roles, and over the intervening decades
fuel cells came to be commonly accepted
in military vehicles. The LCAF restarted production
in 3119 to meet demand for a new infantry
transport.

Should the mul intro be the initial run (3059) or the restart (3119)?

Was going over Clan Gladiator (Executioner) and found some errors for the "F", "G", and "I" variants

"F" and "I" both have a current Movement of {10"/8j"}
per their record sheets, each have both MASC and Supercharger... which should give them a Movement of {12"/8j"}
per ASC p.94 (x1.25 for either system, x1.5 for both)
 
There is no change to these variants TMM (12" is still +2)
There is a +0.25 increase in the MoveFactor bonus (under Defense Factor formula) but this is not a significant increase for their respective PVs (per my calcs)

"F" = http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6842/gladiator-executioner-f
"I" = http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6840/gladiator-executioner-i


"G" variant lists "WAT" for Clan Watchdog CEWS which should have ECM, LPRB, and RCN specials.  ECM and LPRB are missing (per ASC p.133)
Currently 59 PV (which looks correct) w/ CASE, OMNI, RCN, WAT specials
Recommended Change: 62 PV w/ CASE, OMNI, WAT (ECM, LPRB, RCN) specials

You are correct (actually, no unit with NOVA was being charged for C3.  I'm off to fix that right now).  The Osteon -G would be 67 pts by my calcs (26.5 offence, 34 defence, 6 force multiplier).
Title: Re: Master Unit List (MUL) Online Database - READ THE FIRST POST
Post by: GoldBishop on 08 June 2015, 17:12:54
I used the "D" variant of the Osteon as my "bench test" to see if the multiplier was included, so, if I can save you some work, I think it was only the Artillery adjustments that might've thrown it off.
And I'm not trying to make more work for you - I was merely testing it because of the change in artillery (it actually looked like too much but actually wound up being too little?!)

I also have Ground Force Bonuses @6 and Defensive Factor Value @34 (to match yours).
I calculated The Osteon [G] Offensive Factor Value to be 27.5
=[(2+2*2+0)+ 2 size + 1 OverHeat + 2@(4 * 2 Artillery Damage)] * [1 + 0.1 Offensive Blanket]
=[(6) + 3 + (16)] * 1.1
=25 * 1.1, or  27.5

Not trying to beat a live horse here but...

After rechecking the TM errata while building some support tanks, the LRM/SRM Carrier should have an intro of 2470 as the Combat Vehicle chassis intro was changed to 2470. This should help with the earlier intro date question regarding the Standard and primitive versions of said vehicle.


That being said, the following combat vehicles are also invalid at their current intro and will need to be changed to 2470. All of the APCs could use a primitive support vee version to keep them available during the earliest years of the Age of War and pre-Terran Alliance civil war.

Heavy Hover APC (MG) - current intro ES
Heavy Wheeled APC (MG) - current intro ES
Heavy Wheeled APC (Standard) - current intro ES
Heavy Hover APC (Primitive) - currently 0. This one is a good candidate for an XTRO and change to a support vee
Heavy Hover APC (Primitive SRM) - current intro 2370. Same as above I guess
Heavy Wheeled APC (SRM) - current intro 2370
Heavy Hover APC (Primitive LRM) - current intro 2400. Same as above I guess
Heavy Wheeled APC (LRM) - current intro 2400
Sand Devil Scout Hovertank (Standard) - current intro 2452
LTV-4 Hover Tank (Standard) - current intro 2464
Merkava Heavy Tank Mk VIII - current intro 2465

As far as I can tell, the Savage Coyote Z should be 9/9/6 OV 1.  THe MUL has it at 9/7/5 OV 2.  Before I dig into the rest, can you confirm my calcs?

It should be 8/7/5 with OV 2

The HAG-30 has insufficient ammo.

Overheat looks right.  Wars of Reaving Supplement p.83
38 weapon heat, +2 for Nova, +2 for XL engine = 42 max heat... and on a budget of 10 DHS...

I think you're bouncing back and forth between the D and G here.  The D actually has 38 dissipation on 44 heat.  The G (the one with artillery) has the 20 dissipation.

I was quoting the "G" heat.  Wrong page number though; I meant WoR-S page 81  {my bad}

Unless Mechs stopped tracking Heat from Artillery like vehicles, it should generate a maximum of 44 heat with only 20 dissipation, or x0.5 whatever weapon total there is (Artillery being unaffected)

2 Arrow IV              = 20(10) heat
2 Medium ER Pulse = 12(6) heat, 1.47(0.735) at Short/Medium
2 Medium Pulse      =  8(4) heat, 1.54(0.77) for Short/Medium
Engine                    = 2 heat
Nova CEWS            = 2 heat
. Pre-Heat damage = 1.47 + 1.54 = 3.01

Heat Modified Damage Calc [per ASC p.115]
. 3.01 * 20 = 60.2
. 60.2 / (44-4) = 1.505 ~ 2 (rounds up)

"2/2/0, OV1" for Osteon G...unless I did that wrong?

That is correct, and it's what the MUL card reads.

Post by: GoldBishop on 09 June 2015, 20:32:36
I think I know where I threw Xotl off then...

I used the Osteon "D" as a benchmark for the Nova's "C3-like" multiplier when calculating PV (to make sure that was the cost)
The Osteon "G" needs the multiplier as well, with the addition of the Overheat value (+1) to make the cost 68, not 67

OFV = 27.5
DFV = 34
GFB = 6
Total PV = 67.5 ~ 68

*edit: changed my original post (http://bg.battletech.com/forums/errata/master-unit-list-(mul)-online-database-read-the-first-post/msg1079909/#msg1079909) to reflect the edit.  Sorry for the confusion guys*

The main problem for me was the missing OV, but that was because the spreadsheet I have has wrong values for all the Wars of Reaving units (some have OV 5 or even 6, which is impossible).  I'll be going over them all once again to make sure everything is correct.

Thanks GoldBishop and Alexander Knight for the assist.

Pictures attached. The error occurs when veteran or elite is selected and then the skills button is pressed.

The developer in me wants to say that the skills randomizer is giving negative values for skill and that is not an accepted value and thus error.

Title: Re: Master Unit List (MUL) Online Database - READ THE FIRST POST
Post by: GoldBishop on 14 June 2015, 15:29:42
I was able to recreate [Stinger]'s error.

When I select "Random: Green", the best skills I get are 2s for Gunnery and 3s for Piloting ...
When I select "Random: Regular", I get 0s and 1s ...

Based on the table in Total Warfare p.273 (Random Experience Rating Table), these rolls look more like the Veteran and Elite rolls.

Now, I'm not an expert in coding, but if the Skill values are calculated by subtracting specific numbers from base "7" I'm of the same opinion as Stinger: that the "error" is when the formula feeds back a negative Skill value.
(Of a dozen attempts, I have rolled only one "Random: Veteren" that did not come back as an Error; the skills were all either 0/1, 1/2, or 2/3)

The login is for MUL team to enter and modify things.

Could you add a note about that somewhere? I looked for a registration page for a while thinking that I could log in to save forces.

Are there any plans to provide an API for the data for people to build their own applications?

Eisensturm's art isn't the Eisensturm, at least according to the TRO image from 3067 and from the miniature.

Ran into some searching strangeness. I had queried all mechs with an intro date of zero. Three mechs showed up with that clearly had an assigned intro date.

(http://puu.sh/itDZP/9d377e6a91.png)

Oddly, when you search for the intro years of these three units, they do not appear.

Also, the support vehicles from XTRO Primitives v2 have assigned intros of 'circa 2440', which dumps them into the no intro date / year 0 crowd.

Both of these designs are called "ScavengerMechs" in the MUL but in TRVA and RS:VA they're called "SalvageMechs"

Suggest changing it to SalvageMechs on the MUL.

The BV for the Warhammer WHM-X7 "The Lich" (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/3499/warhammer-whm-x7-the-lich) is incorrectly listed as 1,807 whereas it should be 1,818. Below are my calculations (which also happen to match those in SSW):

Can SSW do Frankenmechs now?  Note the 12 internal on the Right/Left Arm on the WHM-X7.  It has heavier arms from a Marauder, hence the extra internal structure.
The BV does seem odd though, having 2 (1 per arm) extra Internal Structure wouldn't explain the BV being lower.
And the RS appears to have the wrong leg armor values.  Working on confirmation/errata for the leg armor.

I completely missed the fact it was a Frankenmech! I wish the record sheets would somehow indicate this. :)

Other than the discrepancy in the armor n the legs between the RS and TRO which needs resolving, I think you can ignore the BV issue on this one.

The BV for the Sha Yu (Bulldog) (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6980/sha-yu-bulldog) is incorrectly listed as 1,488 whereas it should be 1,379. Below are my calculations (which also happen to match those in SSW):
Correct - updating MUL.
The BV for the Wraith TR2-X "Alexander" (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/3590/wraith-tr2-x-alexander) is incorrectly listed as 1,684 whereas it should be 1,816. The value listed in the MUL matches what is in SSW, but SSW incorrectly lists the unit as having single heat sinks instead of double. Below are my calculations:
Correct again, 1,816 it is. The difference due to the incorrect single heat sinks. Updating MUL.
The BV for the Spatha SP2-X "Warlord" (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/2999/spatha-sp2-x-warlord) is incorrectly listed as 1,973 whereas it should be 1,953. Below are my calculations (which also happen to match those in SSW):
TSM affects the sword damage and subsequently the weapon's BV. 1,973 is correct.
The BV for the Juggernaut JG-R9TX1 "Leapin' Lil" (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/1716/juggernaut-jg-r9tx1-leapin-lil) is incorrectly listed as 1,951 whereas it should be 1,944. Below are my calculations (which also happen to match those in SSW):
1,951 is correct. Per TacOps errata (http://bg.battletech.com/forums/errata/tactical-operations-4-june-2014-(v3-3)/msg661514/#msg661514), M-Pods only have a defensive BV and no explosive penalty.
Title: Re: Master Unit List (MUL) Online Database - READ THE FIRST POST
Post by: mordel on 24 June 2015, 08:20:08
Thanks for the response. The M-Pod one is kind of weird given that it explodes, yet this has no impact to the BV. I'd question if this is the case, why even make mention of it exploding at all in the BV tables? In any case, it doesn't have the double-dagger, so I'll go with that. I do have further issues with the following response, however:

TSM affects the sword damage and subsequently the weapon's BV. 1,973 is correct.

Your answer actually makes perfect sense. What gives me pause is that neither HMP nor SSW uses the TSM-enhanced damage during the BV calculations. Further, the following sampling of a half-dozen units in the MUL which are equipped with TSM and a Hatchet or Sword also don't take the TSM-enhanced damage into account for BV calculations:


So was there an errata or some sort of clarification on this that indicated the BV should use the TSM-enhanced damage (vs the non-active TSM damage)? If so, the BV calcs for the designs I indicated above (and likely many others) are incorrect.

Thanks for the response. < Snipped for brevity>

M-Pods: They are mounted on the outside of the unit's armor and are essentially claymore mines. So when they explode, they don't have any explosive force going in towards the Mech.

TSM and weapons: We'll see about working with the MM and SSW developers to update their code. Heavy Metal does not support Total Warfare rules, so it's BV is not accurate.

We'll look into the units you just listed. The Juggernaut was done entirely by hand, as no software supported it then, and went through a full MUL review (which includes several folks who helped update the BV 2.0 rules), so that's why it's sword is factored there.

Best,
Joel BC

M-Pods makes sense now with regards to explosions, thanks for putting me on the straight-and-narrow there.

Regarding TSM and weapons. MM does actually calculate it the way you indicated, so that looks like it's already accounted for, which just leaves SSW needing an update. Looking at the Sparta design, that also seems to calculate it the new way. So maybe it's just the older designs that have this issue, and some of the newer ones are OK.

But thanks for the clarifications. Most helpful! I'll be sure to get these two right moving forward so I don't report false errors anymore!

MM is usually pretty fast on updates. We use MML to create the record sheets, so the guys over there are usually great about fixing bugs for us.

Which means that MM is almost always the most up to date on BV rules.

After checking all the weapons whose BV would be impacted by TSM within MML; Claws, Hatchet, Lance, Mace, Retractable Blade, Sword, and Talons, you might want to let them know (and potentially be aware yourself?) that the BV for Claws and Talons is calculated incorrectly still.

Talon BV should be the _additional_ damage they do when compared to a normal kick. MM(L) does calculate that correctly, including the 50% for TSM:

            returnBV = Math.round(Math.floor(entity.getWeight() / 5.0) * 0.5);
            if (entity.hasWorkingMisc(MiscType.F_TSM)) {
                returnBV *= 2;

                returnBV *= 2;
            }

According to TacOps pg. 385, the BV for Talons is listed as "(Kick Dmg x 1)". Would the kick damage on a 50 ton mech with Talons not be 30?

50 ton 'Mech kick damage is 50 / 5 = 10
Per TacOps pg. 291, this damage is multipled by 1.5, so 10 * 1.5 = 15
Per Total Warfare pg. 143, this damage is double due to TSM, so 15 * 2 = 30

So I'm conused why the above code is multiplying the kick by 0.5 and not 1.5, which seems to be the difference in the math. Is there an errata that states "(Additional Kick Dmg x 1)"?

Always check the errata.  Especially with TacOps, which has so much of it.

3)   Talon: change its Item BV from “(Dmg x 1)” to “(Kick Dmg x 1)”.

This was fixed in the very earliest TO errata, so you must have the first print, meaning every single thing in the TO document applies to your release.

Was this directed towards me or BeeRockxs? Because this is what my TO has and I believe supports the BV calcs I have.

Also, for what it's worth, the BV for the Eyrie (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6263/eyrie-standard) is listed as 1,415. This implies a BV of 11 for the Talons, which is the standard kick damage. If it were only the difference, the BV for the talons would be 4, and the overall BV would be lower.

The reason MML is assigning the ammo a BV is 7.2 is as follows;
TO p. 374 - Armor Piercing (Shaped-Charge) Mortars - "The standard round used in most 'Mech mortars, ..."
TO p. 386 - Alternative Munitions Table - Armor Piercing has a BV modifier of 0.2

Essentially, armor piercing rounds are the default ammo type for 'Mech Mortars so each ton of ammo gets the BV modifier. Thus with the MM/8 rounds 6 + (6 * 0.2) = 7.2.

Unit Name: Pegasus
Source: Technical Readout: Vehicle Annex, Revised
Issue: Missing from MUL, possibly wrong image used for different unit.
Details: This is a VTOL Support Vehicle, not the tank.  Technically it could be referred to as Pegasus (VTOL).
This civilian passenger VTOL (Helicopter) sold in the Lyran Allance. The vehicle first appeared in the original publication of TRO: VA, but usually there is a entry for it with minimum information. There is none.  The vehicles in this book are typically paired with related model, which is the Baronet Passenger VTOL (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/3832/blackstone-baronet-passenger-vtol-standard). The MUL article uses smaller Pegasus's image instead of the bigger vtol image in the background which is the Baronet.  Baronet has similar problem as the above mentioned Dillinger, with manufacture's name mixed into it's name for some reason as well.

edit
: Fixing this link. sorry.

All of the TRVA entrees need to be reviewed for changes in TRVAr.
TRVA (the original) did list the manufacturer first on all the names.  TRVAr dropped the manufacturer names.
The Pegasus is already in the MUL.

I went through almost the entire MUL, compiling C3 units and discovered what I think are a few anomalies.


Does the Peacekeeper-2k (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6836/peacekeeper-pkp-2k) cost 47 or 48 points? Card says one thing, the MUL entry the other.

 and


Why doesn't the Tenmaku (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5206/tenmaku-command-trailer-standard) show a result when you search for C3M units?  (if the ballista shows up when you search for C3S, I'd think the tenmaku should for C3M)

 and

Is the Bolla Tank Configuration B (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/411/bolla-stealth-tank-rots-b) supposed to have both a C3 master and a C3 slave?  Is there a way to use both of them in the same game?

Peacekeeper is 48 PV, you caught mid update.  It's also getting C3S and MHQ1.  The card image hasn't been refreshed yet.

Tenmaku, perhaps you have the only show units with Battle Value box checked on your search?  It should show up on a search for C3M.

Bolla, no.  It can use one or the other but not both.

The MUL currently lists the intro date of the SWD-2 Swordsman (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/7182/swordsman-swd-2) as 2571. This is inconsistent with the source, XTRO: Primitives IV, which states that "Jerricho Industries nonetheless continued to refine and upgrade the design, ultimately debuting the SWD-2 model in 2482..." as well as the references to the SWD-2 and the remaining SWD-1s being the mainstay of the Federated Suns Terran March forces throughout the Davion Civil War, as the Davion Civil War ran from 2525-2540. From the text, 2571 is the date that Alexander Davion apparently transferred the bulk of the remaining Terran March units and the bulk of the Swordsmen in service to the Star League.

Yardship is not camel caps. If it was written that way in any book, the book is where the typo lies.

Thanks, I didn't think to try that, gimme a sec... nope, doesn't change anything for me. And even with that box checked, the newgranges all still show up when I search for "newgrange."

That's with Firefox 38.0.5 - I'm updating to 39 now to see if that makes a difference.

"Erinyes" should be correct for the ship too. That is how the books have it, isn't it?

Yardship is not camel caps. If it was written that way in any book, the book is where the typo lies.

There are very few Camel caps in BattleTech.

Explorer Corp writes it as "yard-ship" but I think the Jihad books all elevate it to the "DropShip, JumpShip, WarShip" format. Could make sense either way; guess it depends how weird you think it sounds to address it as a JumpShip (no standard KF core) or a WarShip (not meant for combat) instead. And half the entries are named with camel caps, so something will need fixing no matter which way you decide.

Okay: searching "yardship" gives me all four entries *IF* I enter it in the search box in the left column. When I enter it in the searchbox to the right on the menu bar, that's when it gives me just the Faslane and zero Newgranges. EDIT: Because when you search from the menu bar, the page resets the checkbox to its default value before executing the search! Please tell me you can fix that. :( /EDIT

All three Newgranges still show up no matter which box I search from, and still with no regard for whether the "Only Units w/ Battle Value" box is checked or not.

All TROs with info on this unit say it was an "SLDF design" and intended for Kerensky's war against the Amaris Empire. But in 2771, the production date, the SLDF was nowhere near Graham IV or Mitchell Vehicles' satellite installations. They didn't arrive to liberate this world until 2776. So...

(1) Was this a design commissioned by the SLDF during the Reunification War, but put into service with by Amaris Empire?

..or..

(2) Is the 2771 intro date in error?

The only entry specifically on the 2H is in Operation Klondike. It provides the 2771 date and Graham IV as the primary factory. The original design for it was from the late 26th century. Mitchell was not awarded the contract to produce it until after Graham IV was liberated.

That would be a question for the developers and possibly errata for OP:K (and then the MUL). OP:K only lists the primary production facility. It does not indicate if there was a smaller site or temporary production facility prior to the contract being awarded. With the sharing of a lot of components with the Stalker, it may have been some alternative form of production other than mass production for the first five years. It could just be a wrong date although the later date clashes with all fluff due to timing. No matter which it is, it isn't an issue for the MUL until a date gets changed elsewhere.

The Banshee BNC-1E's damage values are calculated incorrectly.  I suspect that the heat values for a standard PPC were used, while the Primitive Prototype PPC that it mounts increases the heat burden enough to render it 2/2/2 with OV1.  Considering that the intro date of the standard PPC is 2460 and the intro date of the -1E is 2445 I'm pretty sure this is the discrepancy.

Clarifying with calculation:
(2.425 * 16)/(25-4) → (38.8/21) → 1.8 short range damage
(2.5 * 16)/(25-4) → (38.8/21) → 1.9 medium range damage
(1.5 * 16)/(18 – 4) → (24/14) → 1.7 long range damage

This should modify the -1E's PV down to 38, as well (-3 for change in damage, +1 for OV1)

The Archer ARC-9K (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/87)'s Alpha Strike card gives it both the LRM and SRM specials. If I understand the relevant ruling on MMLs (http://bg.battletech.com/forums/alpha-strike/conversion-of-mmls-with-artemis-iv-to-alpha-strike/msg1062320/#msg1062320) correctly, it should have neither because its MMLs would need to combine for at least 2 points of heat-adjusted medium range damage to qualify...and even before taking heat into account four MML 5s only add up to 1.8 there.

And while I'm looking at it for comparison purposes, there's got to be something fishy with the as far as I'm aware all-but-identical ARC-9KC (http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/6875/archer-arc-9kc). Not only does it lack the specials, it also loses one point of damage at all ranges by comparison...which doesn't make sense as it only trades a single light PPC in for an ER medium laser so it can upgrade its C3 slave to a boosted model. That should leave its damage output at short and medium ranges identical to the 9K's (the small short-range boost gets lost in rounding), and adding up the numbers at long range where the ERML cannot contribute still comes out to 2.2 rounded up to 3 as well.

NCKestrel: yes, the SRM and LRM should be removed from ARC-9K. and the 9KC should be 4/4/3.  Adjusted cards, and PV on 9KC.

There are numerous (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=&HasBV=true&HasBV=false&MinTons=&MaxTons=&MinBV=&MaxBV=&MinIntro=&MaxIntro=&MinCost=&MaxCost=&HasRole=None&HasBFAbility=&MinPV=&MaxPV=&BookAuto=&FactionAuto=) unit that have a role of "None", including 66 aerospace units.

Most of those are dropships and small craft, but there are also a few ASFs that surely shouldn't be "None".  They include 3 sabres, (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=sabre&HasBV=true&HasBV=false&MinTons=&MaxTons=&MinBV=&MaxBV=&MinIntro=&MaxIntro=&MinCost=&MaxCost=&HasRole=None&HasBFAbility=&MinPV=&MaxPV=&BookAuto=&FactionAuto=) 3 Centurions (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=centurion&HasBV=true&HasBV=false&MinTons=&MaxTons=&MinBV=&MaxBV=&MinIntro=&MaxIntro=&MinCost=&MaxCost=&HasRole=None&HasBFAbility=&MinPV=&MaxPV=&BookAuto=&FactionAuto=), 3 eagles (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Filter?Name=eagle&HasBV=true&HasBV=false&MinTons=&MaxTons=&MinBV=&MaxBV=&MinIntro=&MaxIntro=&MinCost=&MaxCost=&HasRole=None&HasBFAbility=&MinPV=&MaxPV=&BookAuto=&FactionAuto=), a hellcat (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/4299/hellcat-hct-313) and a deathstalker (http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/4056/deathstalker-f-77a).

Surely those ASFs at least should have a specified role?

We'll look into it. And stop calling us Shirley. :)

Seriously, remember that on the internet no one can see you smile. When we read a line like this, given the number of trolls on the net, our first instinct is to assume sarcasm or snark and desire not to act.

Of course, being professionals, we still will.

(Copy-pasted from an earlier post in the wrong forum section)
Sorry if this is the wrong forum section for this (or if it's already been reported/asked)- long time reader, first time asker.

I was in the middle of writing up a "news timeline" timeline of sorts for a campaign I'm running, with manufacturers announcing new variants and the like when I came to 2769 and saw the BlackJack BJ-1X listed in MegaMek. Looking on MUL, the introductory date for the BJ-1X is indeed  listed as 2769, whereas the BJ-1 is listed as 2757.
This strikes me as odd, as looking at TRO: 3039's Blackjack listing, under "Variants", the following is stated about the Blackjack:

"Early BlackJack prototypes differed from the production model significantly. Originally armed with twin GM Flashpoint flamers and additional heatsinks in place of each autocannon, it lacked jump jets but was powered by a VOX 225 power plant."

I'm assuming the "Early BlackJack prototype" is meant to be the BJ-1X variant, as it meets all the descriptors from TRO: 3039. As you can see, there's a clear contradiction there. How can the "Early BlackJack prototype" have an introduction year later than the BJ-1, the standard model of the BlackJack? Are the dates perhaps swapped mistakenly? Or am I just misreading something? Hopefully you guys can help me figure this out.

TL;DR
Blackjack BJ-1 introduction year on MUL is listed as 2757
Blackjack BJ-1X introduction year on MUL is listed as 2769
Blackjack BJ-1X is presumably the "Early Blackjack Prototype" listed on page 128 of TRO: 3039 (meets all descriptors), whereas the BJ-1 is the standard model. This doesn't make sense. Please clarify. Thanks!

Thanks for these, Mordel. If you think you know where the error is, that would be helpful in our analysis. Often these turn out to be bugs in the code for MML or SSW.
