I was wondering if there was a way to do a buy by point system using BV2 for a combined unit lance or star. I like to use vehicles at times just to throw in those rules and it is a pain to pick mechs and then carry over what points are leftover and start up the vehicle program.
So do you think that there could be a way to come up with this ability to do this?

Thanks,

Tim "Tarman" Ragnow

I don't understand the question: Don't you "spend" BV in the first place? :dunno:

Ok as an example: Say I want to do a unit that has 5K points of BV2. In the current format I would have to run each program individually and choose the units i want and carry over the leftover points to the other program. I'm looking for a way to combine the process.

Does that help?

There is a really handy program for that called Calculator. ;)

In all seriousness, that's about as consolidated as you're going get for sharing BV between programs.

Well that is why I am posting here so that maybe Rick can think on it and see if there is a way to do so that is feasible. :rotate:
