Might this be a way to balance the economy of large player groups? The larger, more complex the Drop Ship the more expensive it is to maintain?

None will stand before the tactical might of our crash landings and trashcans with legs.

Variants
- Upgrade - Projected to launch in 3058, this version of the Fortress replaces the normal heat sinks with fewer double heat sinks and uses the extra tonnage to greatly improve the weapons load and strengthen the internal structure of the Dropship. First, two AC/5s, four Medium Lasers and two SRM-6s were stripped out, making room for upgrading the PPCs to ER PPCs and adding Artemis IV to all the remaining missile launchers. Further, the Large Lasers were upgraded to ER and ten of the remaining Medium Lasers were upgraded to Medium Pulse Laser. Finally, to help round out the new weapons load, two Gauss Rifles were added to give the Dropship more long-range punch. Further, the engine was slightly upgraded to a more efficient drive and the structure of the ship was also reinforced, and the cargo capacity increased to 368 tons. BV (1.0) = 5,831 BV (2.0) = 6,072

On the pencil/paper version my mercenary units (yes plural) didn't own any dropships or jumpships but relied soley on charter OR employer transport IF the contract negotiations went well or the contract wasn't from House Kurita (known for leaving mercs even their own units behind if it suited them).

well I can say more.
McKools Cattle Raiders now offering by popular demand a "before Drop" Coffee Espresso and Latte Bar.
Remember Finn as your designated driver, always there for you, always sober.
and dont forget Free steak Dinner for those who make the ride home.
P.S. emptie coffee cans are available to take with on those extra long missions.
McKools will not be held responsible for burns acquired from spilled coffee during missions, Finn recommends you up grade your mech with anti-spill cupholders, Any accidents from bladder overfill or sudden release is the express responsibility of mech pilot.
Remember its a cruel universe out there.
