I am pretty new to all this, but here is my question:
Dont i need to roll for purchasing units?
As far as i know, i need to rool with an admin (for example) to purchase a certain type of unit.
Especially cause we are in the Dark Age, so soem units might be hard to find.

Nope, there is NO, I repeat NO rolling for units or personnel. Just go to the "Market" in your MegaMek HQ file and "Buy" or "Hire" them. Don't use GM Add!!!!
Make sure they are Gunnery of 4 and Piloting of 5 in their respective unit type if Combat Personnel, or if Support Personnel (ie: Admin, Doctor, Tech, Mechanic, etc) they must start at Level 4 of their profession. You can use GM to edit them if you need too. Also NO personnel start with any special abilities, edge, etc. All of those must be purchased with XP they will earn later.
You actually get to pick the military you want, you are the ruler after all!

Yes, remove any "extra" skills need to be purchased with XP later, with the single exception of "Small Arms." Tactics really isn't as useful here as it only gets used if you have individual initiative turned on. It means the highest ranked person still active on your force uses their Tactics as a bonus for all your forces otherwise.
Meanwhile Strategy in AtB gives you bonuses on how many lances you need active in a contract, and helps with allowing reinforcements on individual missions. None of that matters here in this game system.
