ALSO WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I CAN GIVE MY PEOPLE EDGE AS WELL

[Black Omega]

Hat, I thought that might get your attention.  Please see the following from PM to Rob:

Rob,
Is it permissible for a tech to spend xp on edge?  And could that edge be used to save his life in a combat situation?

Absolutely.

Well if thats the case there will be some edge purchases on mine as well

Guess at this point however in what manner can they be used? Since techs dont normally see combat are they perma burns for saving their life if killed or are they intended to be used prior to a killing blow?

Depending on the answer this will be final result or they will each end up with 2 edge

Absolutely.

This is correct.  Spending Edge to gain or force a reroll in a combat situation where the Tech is piloting a Mech is functionally the only way that a Tech can interact with Edge.  So, for example, Reaper's Tech is piloting a Mech in his Star League Cache mission.  Because the Tech is piloting a Mech, any Edge that Tech has can be used to reroll or force a reroll.

Because we don't track Techs to the degree that we track Mechwarriors, however, this is the only way that Techs can interact with Edge.  It could not be used, for example, to force an enemy Firestarter shooting at a Tech squad to force a reroll of the attack roll (the Tech is only part of the squad, not the whole thing), and it cannot be burnt to save the Tech's life, because the Tech has no chance to suffer a long-term injury (the chance of LTI is the price of getting to use Edge to save your life, and LTI only affects MechWarriors).  And Techs very definitely cannot spend Edge on rerolls to repair things, because then we'd have to define "how often" Edge can be used, and that's a giant can of worms given that MechWarriors can play in (theoretically) multiple scenarios per in-game day, and they explicitly get their full Edge allotment in each one (and that one isn't on me - that's how Edge in BattleTech play has ALWAYS worked going back to FASA).

I think we visited the topic once before, after an SLDF Cache mission, where the same question was asked in theory.  But I'm unsure if we ever put the answer into the rules.  I'll note it for inclusion in the upcoming revision, since we've got enough clarifications floating about the forums to require one.

I retract my edge purchases then as they have 0 affect at this time.

See question thread for my response.

If anyone is still looking to load their custom mechs, this link I believe should take you to where you need to go.  If not, please let me know.
