+\section{Version 2.0}
+
+This errata applies to version 2.0 of the BattleTech: Outworlds Wastes rules.
+
+\subsection{Force Maintenance and Improvements}
+
+Update the \emph{repair} rule to make motive system damage free to repair.
+
+\begin{description}
+
+\item {\bfseries Repair}: Pay 25\% of the C-bill cost, rounded up, to repair all internal damage and critical components for a unit that has not been \emph{destroyed}.
+If the pilot/crew was killed, the repair cost includes a 5/6 pilot or crew that may be \emph{trained}.
+Armor and motive systems are repaired for free.
+For Omni units, the repair cost is based upon the fielded variant.
+
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Advanced Force Maintenance and Improvements}
+
+\subsubsection{Contracts}
+
+Add the following new optional rules.
+
+\begin{description}
+
+\item {\bfseries Contracts}: Negotiate the terms of your employment to receive lower objective payments in exchange for reduced repair costs.
+All contract terms start at level 1.
+Commanders may raise the level of contract terms in pairs.
+For example, to go from level 1 in Repair Costs to level 2, a commander must also go to level 2 in either Objective Pay or Salvage.
+
+Multiply the \emph{repair} and \emph{replace} costs by the percentage given by the Repair Costs level.
+Multiply the C-bills earned from objectives by the percentage given by Objective Pay level.
+Multiply the C-bills earned from salvage by the percentage given by the Salvage level.
+Also, commanders may only add a portion of the enemy units destroyed to their force, given by the total number of enemy units destroyed multiplied by the percentage given by the Salvage level, rounded up.

+
+This optional rule cannot be used when using \emph{BattleTech: Chaos Campaign} rules from the \emph{Hot Spots: Hinterlands} sourcebook or the \emph{BattleTech: Mercenaries} box set.
+
+\item {\bfseries Timetables}: Maintenance activities take time to complete.
+\emph{Repair} takes 1 scenario to complete.
+\emph{Replace} and \emph{Refit} take two scenarios to complete.
+Commanders may pay double the C-bill cost to reduce this time by 1 scenario.
+Also, pilots only heal one point of damage between scenarios.
+
+\end{description}
+
+\subsubsection{Dropship Customization}
+
+Double the percentage benefits and detriments for all improvement levels.
+For example, Level 1 of Machine Shop now grants a 10\% decrease in salvage costs instead of a 5\% decrease.
