The Skills List is compiled for use with Classic BattleTech RPG (also known as MechWarrior, Third Edition). In cases where multiple sources are listed for the same skill, either additional subskills were added after the primary source's introduction of the skill or the secondary source has provided additional rules expansion for that skill. Refer to the sources for detailed descriptions and rules for use. The list is currently updated only as far as the references indicate.
