Hello all,
I am hoping that BV 1 is the same as the Combat Values Found in FASA 8630 BT Tactical Handbook. Looking at the BT Combat Value Table weapons and equipment are identified as LRM-5 (Clan). Based on the entries I think that the NARC entry on Tactical Handbook p. 31 of 50 is the same for both IS and Clan.

Combat Value (CV) was a pre-Battle Value rating, and was superseded by BV(1) by the time the BattleTechWiki debuted (2006). Instead of replacing all BV1 with BV2, it was decided at the time to just add BV2 alongside it (there was some indications back then that some people valued BV1 over BV2). CV was never added in, as it did not appear to be a rating method in use, nor had it been supported for many years (by 2006).

Hello Revanche,
Thank you for the reply and letting me know that my guess was out to lunch.
Where did the BV value of 50 for the Inner Sphere come from since I am not able to find a source listed in the BattleTechWiki article?

Afternoon, Tom.
Unfortunately, I do not know. Maybe someone else can find the answer and provide the source.
What I have done is add a "citation needed" tag to that entry. Hopefully, that will catch the right (knowledgeable) person's attention and it will either be provided or corrected.
Sorry that I couldn't be more helpful.
