1. I wanna transfer 1 Star of Mechs and 2 Stars of Elementals, and still maul the crap out of um' when the dropship lands, but I don't want space not to be used, so which clan dropship should I use and where can I get stats for it.
2. Is it possible to use orbital bombardment so I can level me so I can majorly level some mechs.
3. What do Elementals count as on dropships? Do I do tonnage or do I count 5 Elementals as 1 Mech?

1) A Confederate or Broadsword, I think.
2) Sure. Just stick to military targets away from civies.
3) Dunno.

1) (Confederate or Broadsword) and Sassanid*. Sadly that will leave you with unused berths for a full star of Elementals. They are in TRO3057
2) You can orbitally bombard anything you feel like.
3) Elementals. Only one Clan Dropship can carry them: The Sassanid*.
*the spelling of which I am probably butchering.

Although, heh heh, warships, heh heh, carry them as marines.

Some do. Not many.
But that's even MORE wasted storage capacity.

Whats up with that? Why can only 1 kind of dropship carry elementals? Or do they count as people? And where can I get techie reads and stuff for the dropships you mentioned.

My take on your questions:
1> Go for a Union or Overlord class dropship.
2> If you have a warship sure you can use orbital bombarment if you want to. But not from a dropship.
3> They would count as infantry does, BUT I am not sure on that one, would need to pull out Battlespace or AT2 and double check...
