Notes[edit]
Some of the new equipment list (originally produced for the BattleTech Revised Rules) would later be changed from the Rules Level 1 / Advanced / Experimental technology ratings to standard equipment for normal use in later era(s) of the universe.
After appearing in this book, all equipment was later revised and included in Total Warfare book's third core book, Tactical Operations. Some equipment functions and abilities may have changed from this publication.
