The size <strong>of</strong> a unit’s parts stockpile is modified by circumstances such as location, type <strong>of</strong> unit, and combat status.<br />

Base Percentage 30%<br />

Located on a Class A planet: +5%<br />

Located on a Class B planet: +0%<br />

Located on a Class C planet: -5%<br />

Located in <strong>the</strong> Periphery: -10%<br />

Located within an active war zone: +10%<br />

Located within one jump <strong>of</strong> an active war zone: +5%<br />

Elite House Unit +10%<br />

Veteran House Unit +5%<br />

Regular House Army +0%<br />

House Militia -5%<br />

Mercenary units vary widely in regards to how well stocked <strong>the</strong>y are. Generally, larger mercenary unit are better supplied than smaller<br />

mercenary commands, but this is not always <strong>the</strong> case.<br />

Mercenary (company or less) 1d6 -5%<br />

Mercenary (battalion) 1d6 +0%<br />

Mercenary (regiment) 1d6 +5%<br />

Once <strong>the</strong> composition <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> force and <strong>the</strong> modified supply percentage is determined, <strong>the</strong> actual tonnage <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> parts stockpile can be<br />

calculated. As an example, a regular House Marik BattleMech company is stationed one jump from <strong>the</strong> front lines on a Class A planet. The<br />

company is comprised <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> following BattleMechs:<br />

The unit insignia <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> 21 st Centauri Lancers.<br />

Originally a battalion <strong>of</strong> House Liao's St. Ives<br />

Armored Cavalry, in 2875 <strong>the</strong>y mutinied against<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir regimental commander and went mercenary.<br />

Locust, Stinger, Vulcan, Vulcan (120 tons)<br />

Hermes II, Trebuchet, Shadow Hawk, Wolverine (200 tons)<br />

Crusader, Warhammer, Orion, Orion (285 tons)<br />

The combined weight <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> company is 605 tons. The base parts percentage is 30% + 5% for being one jump from <strong>the</strong> frontlines, and +5% for being located on a Class A planet for a total <strong>of</strong><br />

40%. This gives <strong>the</strong> unit a stockpile <strong>of</strong> 242 tons.<br />

A lance <strong>of</strong> Steiner militia ‘Mechs is stationed on <strong>the</strong> periphery border. They consist <strong>of</strong> a Stinger, two Commandos, and a Wasp weighing a total <strong>of</strong> 90 tons. The base 30% is lowered by -5%<br />

for being a militia unit and an additional -5% for being on a Class C world, leaving <strong>the</strong>m with only 20%. This gives <strong>the</strong>m a scant 18 tons <strong>of</strong> spare parts, which includes munitions.<br />

Once <strong>the</strong> total weight <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> stockpile is determined, it can be broken down into specific components. A parts stockpile is generally divided in <strong>the</strong> following way:<br />

Weapons 25%<br />

Munitions 20%<br />

Armor 25%<br />

Structure 10%<br />

Heat Sinks 10%<br />
