Within MekWars, there are a number of resources that you as a commander will have access to in order to upgrade units, perform repairs, buy new units, hire mercenaries and more. You'll use Cbills to buy new units, influence to attack as well as acquire new Mechs, experience to level your most adept MechWarriors, and a few other important resources that may also accomplish some of the same things.
C-Bills
The most basic of the resources at your disposal, Comstar Bills, or C-Bills for short, is the standard international currency of the Inner Sphere.
C-Bills can only be earned through battles and the amount earned is dependent upon the operation, size of the battle (BV), and the rating difference between the two combatants. Larger battles, and a defeating an opponent with a higher BV will result in greater C-Bill earnings.
- Used For:
- Buying new units on the blackmarket
- Buying new units via factories
- Buying used units via your faction
- Buying techs to repair units
- Repairing damaged units
- Paying for mercenary units
- Earned By:
- Finishing battles
- Dependent upon operation type, BV and rating difference of combatants
- Finishing battles
Influence
Influence, or "flu" works within MekWars as an activity limiter of sorts, ensuring one person cannot simply waste all of a faction's resources, buy too many units or attack too many times in too small of a time frame.
It is used for just about everything from buying units (from various sources) to launching attacks. Flu can be earned by finishing battles but also by going active as a means to defend your faction's planets. Every ~5 minutes for being active and not in a battle you'll receive some flu for each army you're active with. The amount earned is dependent upon the server, but for MegaMekNET, it's +4 flu for each army. For each army within 150 BV of another, there's a stacking penalty so each additional one will earn less than the +4.
- Used For:
- Buying new units on the blackmarket (Placing Bids)
- Buying new units via factories
- Buying used units via your faction
- Launching attacks
- Earned By:
- Finishing battles
- Going / remaining active
