FUTURE PLANS:
I do plan adding a variant of the Wolf's Dragoons because I got to read Wolves on the Border so I wanna add one with Jamie Wolf and Minobu Tetsuhara.

Also plan on adding another variant of Kell Hounds because of the Blood of Keresnky: Lethal Heritage. Would include Phelan Kell and some of his old lancemates before 3050.

Add Raven mech to Wolf's Dragoons career start

Adding more custom/modified pilots to flesh out each career.


Pilot Overhaul not need but, recommened using (updated to DLC4 so use it!)
Balance is up for question so give feedback.
Also, if you have any other lore based factions/companies that could be added drop a comment and I'll take a look.

hello i have been playing battletech since it started i have read every book and pace of material written on the game there are a few merc. units that have slip througth the cracks there are a lot to list here if you would like to know some of the more uncommon ones just contact me if you would like some of them to make your list longer

So, something that I thought about since the Wolf's Dragoons in a sense brought some mechs when they showed up in IS space is that their mech roster should have included those mechs instead of what the mod gives them, like for example the Annihilator (or Four Urbans in a Trenchcoat by the community at large) mech was practically exclusive to the Wolf's Dragoons before the Jihad era of the timeline opened its use up a bit more (though not by much as the blueprints just wound up in the hands of the Kell Hounds due to the factory they were handed off to when the Word of Blake stole them was family owned by the Kell Hounds)

FINALLY A WAY TO START WITHOUT A CRAPPY ANTI INFANTRY LIGHT MECH ON MY TEAM!

Great mod! Love the flavor it brings for a unique start

Any chance you could add Grinner to the Kell Hounds starting mechs? (hands down my favorite light mech in the game) :)

Okay this is amazing, I bought the DLC not expecting all that much. Glad to see I stood corrected, this kinda stuff is really what makes immersion for me.

Yeah pretty much five out of the six outfits in this mod are in-game and can be encountered by you once you reach Rep 6, in fact let me find my list because I sent it to my friend over steam of the amount of outfits that can be encountered in-game or at least the ones that I found when viewing the star map at the time.

Blackhearts
McCarrons Armored Cavalry
Crater Cobras
Kell Hounds
Wolf's Dragoons
Hansen's Roughriders
Harlock's Warriors
The Bad Dream
Gregg's Long Striders
Eridant Light Horse
Brion's Legion
Waco Rangers
The Filthy Lucre
Northwind Highlanders

I haven't gotten around to playing the DLC yet and didn't know that the it came with established mercs. I'll have to look into that idea.
