Major Features
Force Preview from Search Page
The Search Page now includes a Force Preview feature, allowing you to monitor your selected units in real-time. Quickly see the total unit count and force BV without switching to the Force page. Plus, the Force Preview button provides a quick view of your selected units' names, helping you build a balanced force with ease.
Unit Preview from Search Results
You can now preview detailed unit information directly from the Search Page. This streamlined feature lets you determine whether a unit fits your force strategy without leaving the Search Results. The Combat Profile (formerly known as "unit card") is consistent with what you’ll find on the Force page, ensuring clarity and usability.
Enhanced Combat Profiles for All Units
Every unit type now has its own specialized Combat Profile, tailored to reflect its unique attributes. Infantry units highlight their trooper-specific gear, while BattleMechs focus on weapons, heat sinks, and survivability stats. This unit-specific layout ensures you’re equipped with the most relevant data for evaluating any unit.
Adjustable Search Results Per Page
Gone are the days of being limited to 15 results per page. With this update, you can toggle between 15, 30, or 45 results per page, making it easier to browse and compare large numbers of units.
Include Common Units in Faction Searches
Faction searches have been enhanced with a new "Include Common Units" option. This feature allows users to include "general" or "common" units—those available to multiple factions during a given era—in their search results, in addition to units explicitly marked as belonging to the selected faction.
For example, during the Clan Invasion era, ComStar's faction availability in the Master Unit List (MUL) might explicitly list 100 BattleMechs. However, ComStar also has access to units categorized as "Inner Sphere General" during the same era. With this new option enabled, you can include these common units alongside the faction-specific ones for a more comprehensive selection.
This feature currently supports one faction at a time.
