Mercenary's Handbook (Battletech)

Commentary and views on the Succession Wars mercenary provide a solid background forgamers who need to learn the basics of the business of war, while game rules translate these ideas into simple systems for creating a mere outfit, finding and signing with employers, and resolving an entire military campaign.
