The names of units, manufacturers and people were not translated into Finnish, but several other names and terms such as factions and equipment were. Accordingly, the abbreviations for them differ from the originals - for example, a [[long-range missile]] is "pitkänmatkan ohjus", abbreviated as "PMO", and [[CASE]] is "KAV" ("kerrosmainen ammusvarasto").

Although both products were released by PRO-Games, the Finnish editions of the [[BattleTech, 2nd Edition]] box set and Technical Readout 2750 have different translators. It is perhaps due to this that the translations of some names differ between the two releases. For example, in the Finnish [[BattleTech, 2nd Edition|2nd Edition]] box set [[small laser|small lasers]], [[medium laser|medium lasers]] and [[large laser|large lasers]] are translated as "pieni laser", "keskilaser" and "suuri laser", matching their original names. In Tekninen Käsikirja 2750 the same weapons are given the names "kevytlaser" ("light laser"), "normaalilaser" ("normal laser") and "raskas laser" ("heavy laser").
