'''Bonus Operation
 
Overwatch:'''
 
This is an operation similar to Patrol with the following additions: it is AFR-only and the attacker recieves a small amount of artillery while the defender gets to place some conventional mines. The operation is identical to the Skirmish operation in all other aspects.
 
 
 
 
'''Conquer Faction Subfaction 1 (Frontline Commanders)''' has access to an additional seven different Operations against other Conquer Factions:
 
 
 
 
 
'''Faction-Unique Super Operation:'''
 
These Operations are unique for every faction and must take place on Factory Planets with the exception of Capitol Planets. To get access to your faction's unique operation - experiment! A general hint for everyone: No maximum bvs and the higher your armies are, the better the payout. Minimum BV is 8000.  Unit Requirements such as number of units involved and classes of units involved differ for every faction as well as different payouts, meta awards and pilot gains. The [[:Category:MekWars_mechanisms|bv spread]] is 1000 maximum and the rewards get better the higher your game bv is.
 
Supersize Me!
 
 
 
 
Rumors: Allthough unconfirmed, the Great House's Intels suspect Comstar to be responsible for a few devastating attacks on selected targets. You may try to assault an HPG Station but beware Blake's Wrath!
 
 
 
'''Additionally, General Operations:'''
 
 
'''Tutorial:'''
 
Armies legal for attacking tutorials have 1000-7000 total BV, have at least 4 non-infantry units and no more than 4 vehicles and 1 Infantry Platoons. Tutorials can only be launched against SOL, meks aren't lost in them and they only pay a few hundred cbills to the involved players.
 
 
 
 
 
NOTE: DO NOT PLAY A TOURNEY IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH C-BILLS ON HAND TO COVER YOUR BAY EXPENSES >>> You have been warned.
 
Losers get no pay and will lose any bays they can't pay for after the fight.
 
 
'''Cruiser Tourney:'''
 
This is a free-for-all arena for single units up to 60tons and is double-blind. Everyone receives some mines and fled units may get scrapped, pushed off units may get salvaged. Expect bad payout and no campaign effects. One player each faction.
