Should BV include cost/value multipliers for internal structure and gyro armor value?
BV has nothing to do with cost. The cost of anything has nothing to do with its effectiveness in combat. _________________ Mordel Blacknight - Site Administrator

My question should their be a increase for the value of armor and internal structure,armor value, and Gyro value then a multiplier added. Then added to the overall value. I think it needs mayor reform.

The amount of armor points and structure points, along with their types, already do have a direct impact on the Battle Value. As does the gyro type. Here's part of the BV breakdown for one of the Albatross models that shows that:
Battle Value Breakdown
