The Hangar
BattleMechs, Infantry, Vehicles and all other kinds of units available to a player are represented on the Hangar/Headquarters screen. By right-clicking on Hangar players may choose how to organize their forces: per size, bv, name, etc.
Most servers have hangars automatically configured to use the little symbols for ammo, repairs, etc. If they donīt, you can change this on File - Configuration - HUD Layout. On the image above there are some units with internal damage (red shield), with partially fulled ammo bins (ammo symbol) and with some critical damage (cog). Right clicking on a unit gives many options for it like ammo custumization, donating or scrapping the unit as well as selling or transfering it to another player. All such options may or may not be available on the many different MekWars campaigns. Specially Donation and Scrapping tends to be heavily controlled, so as to detain abuse.
Once you get familiarized with the Hangar, your next step is to create an army.
