Howdy, Commanders—
Cole Mercer here, broadcastin’ from deep inside the command bunker...
When Reactor Ops first went live a year ago, the dream was simple: make it easier to run your own BattleTech campaign without drownin’ in spreadsheets and browser tabs.
Well, that dream’s just gone operational.
The Chaos Campaign: Mercenaries Campaign Manager
You can now run your entire mercenary outfit right inside Reactor Ops — from contract to combat, salvage to payday.
Enter your missions, record results, and let the app handle the math, credits, and reputation shifts automatically.
Track Reports: Log every battle and get combat pay calculated on the fly.
Salvage & Repairs: Handle post-mission salvage and monthly maintenance with a few clicks.
Reputation & Ledger: Watch your outfit’s support points, reputation, and finances evolve after each engagement.
Exports: Kick out a full Excel or Google Sheets ledger for your campaign records.
The paperwork phase of your mercenary life? Over.
🎖️ Open to All Commanders
The Campaign Manager is now live for both supporters and non-supporters.
That’s a change from my earlier plan — but it’s the right call.
This feature is the heart of what Reactor Ops set out to do, and everyone deserves to give it a spin.
Supporters, don’t worry — your existing perks remain, and new supporter-exclusive tools are already in the works, including deeper Campaign Manager integrations and expanded analytics.
☕ What’s Next
Now that the Campaign Manager has officially rolled out, BattleMaster-1G is takin’ a well-earned cooldown cycle.
He’ll still be monitorin’ comms, squashin’ bugs, and poppin’ into the Patreon general chat, but active development will power down for the holidays.
Between now and the new year, he’s tradin’ commits for paintbrushes — catchin’ up on miniatures, spendin’ time with family, and recharging the fusion core before Reactor Ops kicks back into full development in 2026.
Fire it up, give the Campaign Manager a whirl, and let me know how your mercs fare out there.
Until next time…
Keep your heat low and your accounts balanced.
