This one's tough. The TWC limited the equipment the MMC could
take on-planet to what could be produced locally. Thus you had them
fighting tank battles against the Freiheimers, with muskets on one planet, and
with spears and bows on a different planet.

But... I think they would always be highly motivated, and at the least be
veterans. Green MMC units get blooded fast, so while they do occur, they'd be
rare. Leader quality would be as variable as with any other force.

Of course, you'd never have to worry about how to play the Ninjas, since they
didn't exist.

Easy enough to do. Flipping the tables shouldn't affect play balance. The
statistics remain the same, though reversed.

My phrasing is probably missing all sorts of weird characters and not
inconceivably a few letters, but I gather that the original translation was "I
farted".

This was originally discovered by the telecommunications company of the same
name who opened a subsidiary in France without checking their brand. Oops.
