Mercenary Factions For SPAM
Thanks to the SPAM sub-mod for BTA (please read its entry in the FAQ for details about the sub-mod and what it does), BTA has now added a large volume of mercenary commands and pirate bands as eligible sub-factions for players to encounter during gameplay. For the curious, a list of the mercenary commands is below so you can know where you can fight any given mercenary or pirate group. Also, if a mercenary command has anything special about it, it will be specifically noted on their entry on the list. The list will be organized by "parent" faction (i.e. the faction that the listed mercs work for, so a mercenary unit listed under the Capellan Confederation heading can be found as a SPAM replacement on missions against the Capellan Confederation). Unless otherwise noted, *all* of these factions also work for Local Government and the "generic" Mercenaries faction currently found in BTA. Finally, unless otherwise noted, *all* of these factions are true and canon BattleTech mercenary and pirate units, all of which have backgrounds that can be found on Sarna for your reading pleasure.
