Hi, I am wondering if mordel uses BV2 as their BV calculations. I always assumed it did as that is the current model for point calculation used and I came across a forum post in 2015 from the site admin that says he was gutting BV1 from the website but a friend told me that Mordel uses BV1 which I found odd.

Edit: I re-created the same mech I have for one of my designs in MegaMek and the difference is 34BV. The only difference is that I used the Experimental rules in MegaMek as it was the only way I could get the Supercharger addon but used Advance Rules in Mordel

This site uses BV2. I used to show both calcs, but BV1 became so old that it wasn't possible to use for most of the newer designs, and definitely not worth the maintenance.

I didn't see a design for you on here, but there likely is a reason for the BV difference; either a calc error on MML or a calc error here. I'd be happy to look into it if you submitted the design here and then also sent me the MML file you used for MegaMek.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I did the tests with 2 other mechs and got the same BV values for both. We assume that the TSM and claws were interacting weird on MegaMek since I was using an older version
