LANCEMATES BRIEFING
Pilots are classified in a different way than MW4: as recrutable pilots are
more, they are characterized only by their stats and weekly salary. Of course,
better is the pilot, higher you'll have to pay him. Note that pilots never
changes salary, so, for example, you can make out from Rufus an excellent pilot
without paying him too well. Also, you can fire and re-hire pilots as many
times you want, unless they are killed in action (KIA). Some pilots have the
Lance Commander attribute. This means that they can handle other three pilots
when you order them something; a Lance lead by a non-Commander pilot is less
effective.
The stats representing the piltos are gunnery, piloting (self-expliantory),
blind fighting (when sensors are off-line or jammed, to engage the right 'Mechs
and vehicles) and sensor (the ability to fully use additional equipment).
