"Battle-armored infantrymen wear powered suits of armor equipped with various weapons. Clan battle armor troopers, known as Elementals, are organized into 5-man Points. Their individually powered battle suits mount missiles, small lasers and antipersonnel weapons. Because Elemental armor can survive direct hits from BattleMech-class weapons, a single Point of battle armor can often disable or destroy a ’Mech. Clan Battle Armor pilots are also genetically bred to be larger and stronger than normal humans.
"Inner Sphere forces also field battle armored infantry in 4- to 6-man squads, depending on faction. Such equipment, though more diverse, remains rare and less powerful than Clan battle armor.
"Most battle-armored infantry soldiers receive extensive anti-’Mech training."1
