Description
Master Unit List: Battle Value is a free Web-Exclusive PDF product used to provide players with specific information on units used in the Battletech universe. A result of the MUL project, it lists Battle Value (2.0), Faction and Era Availability (Only Jihad or Dark Age eras), Technology level, and Rule Set for a vast number of individual boardgame units.
The developers chose a "quality over quantity" approach for this product. While the actual MUL is a much larger project, the Master Unit List: Battle Value publication covers only those units for which official record sheets already exist (as opposed to numerous units for which only incomplete information is available, and sometimes only a name). It was stated that creating a record sheet was an integral step for checking a given units' rules compliance and to re-calculate its BV 2.0.
