+These are the core mechanics at work in Mekwars. This will give you a general idea of what's being talked about when players talk about these things in chat.
 * BV - [http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Battle_Value Battle Value]. A measure of the effectiveness of a given unit. Better armor, more speed will make this go up; exploding ammunition or battle damage can make this go down.

 * [[Components]] - Used to manufacture units.
 * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system ELO] - Short version: a rating system designed to take into account players of differing records.
-* [Factions] - Who belongs to what group, and what that actually MEANS.
+* [[Factions]] - Who belongs to what group, and what that actually MEANS.
 * [[Flu (influence)]] - An activity limit of sorts, it ensures that players can not simply go berserk, launching attack after attack.
 * Force Mod - An offset applied when the number of units on a side is dissimilar. The greater number force will have its BV increased, for the purpose of matching it up against the smaller force. This is done individually for every match.

 * RPs (Reward Points) - Another reward for completing missions, you spend RPs to repair units, instantly gain flu, and purchase units.
 * Techs - The amount of technicians you have available to perform repairs on your damaged units. Techs are categorized into 4 different experience levels--green, regular, veteran, elite. Higher level techs have a greater base probability to succeed in a repair, but cost more per hour to perform that repair. Techs are hired at green or regular, and get promoted and retire as they complete repairs; it is possible to run out of techs to perform repairs.
 * Tick - Every fifteen minutes, the server will administrate new production, check for auto-production, and perform other administrative tasks.
 * [[Units]] - Meks, vehicles, aerospace fighters, dropships, or infantry; what you use to fight with.
