Battletech Balance Overhaul

Note that almost all of these changes (other than a couple of minor sim layer changes) are a part of the dz Consolidated Company Commander mod. If you prefer a mod that is pretty close to vanilla, but with a reworked tactical layer then this mod is for you. If you'd like a much more in depth overhaul of the simulation layer as well as these tactical changes then you should check out dz consolidated company commander (note that as of right now changes to this mod are folded into that mod (and vice versa) when it comes to the tactical layer).
