To Join a Stable you must have a Fame of at least the number listed, you also must pay CP and C-Bills. Most Stables are liked to a major house Faction. To join one of those factions you must be a member of the factions allowed
Stables have ratings (A-F). These ratings for the purposes of the campaign will indicate what level of modifications you can make to your mech. Each of higher ranked Stables can do what lower ranked stables can do in addition to their own abilities....Meaning an Rank A stable has the abilities that B, C, D and F stables do. C-Bill cost of the modification will be listed in [brackets]
Rank F: Omni-mech Configuration Swaps [+/- equipment / weapons cost difference]
Rank D: Critical location swap, weapon facing swap. Moving ammo location, relocating rear mounted weapons to front facing or arms. [Cost 50,000 C-Bills per critical moved/changed]
Rank C: Variant Swap [+/- equipment / weapons cost difference], Inner Sphere weapon / equipment swap. Can swap out only Level 1 or 2 weapon systems and equipment [Cost of new weapon / equipment].
Add or remove Jumpjets. [Cost of the jump jets if added] Add/remove current Armor type. [Cost of the armor if added]
Note: you do not get to sell back the removed weapon / jumpjet / armor removed...those are taken to cover the labor costs of the modification.
Rank B: Major overhauls: Inner Sphere Engine, Armor (Standard, FF, Stealth if available), Heat Sink (Single for double). [Cost of the new items being added to mech] Wanting to change an XL engine to an Standard would cost the price of the Standard engine.
Rank A: IS/Clan weaponry swap [May swap IS weapons with clan weapons for the cost of the clan weapons]. Solaris Weapons swap [May add Level 3 Solaris weaponry/ items at cost of the item].
Stables are also good at teaching their warrios how to take the initiative in battle. If a Stable has "Initiative Bonus" listed in the game effects column follow the rules below.
Initiative Bonus. If more than 3 active mechs are on the battlefield, this mechwarrior cannot be 1st to move. If their card is flipped first, place to side and flip another initiative card. If that card also has the "Initiative Bonus" ability also place it to the side, flip until a card without Initiative Bonus is flipped. Once one mech has moved all Initiative bonus mechs whose cards have been flipped move in the order they were originally flipped. If there are 3 or fewer mechs remaining the Initiative Bonus ability has no effect. If all remaining mechwarriors have the Initiative Bonus ability, the ability has no effect.
The Stables will also have their own Blog entry listed in the Stable menu to the right.
