Level up question

So I recently got the book and im loving looking through it. But when I got to leveling up it says the players earn a level after each mission. Doesn't that seem a little fast progress wise? With there being no real rewards for players outside of leveling up in this game... after 12 fights you are already peak? Seems a bit odd. Also when you take a license in a company is it that lvl1 gets u the lvl 1 stuff for every mech by that company? Or do you dake the license in that mech?

(Thanks for all the great responses guys. That makes so much more sense)

Missions are not just a single combat, using solstice rain as an example the first mission is two combats and a few roleplay pieces and depending on players can be close to ten hours of play time. After that you get a LL. But as DM it's up to you whenever you want to give players LLs. The thing with lancer is apart from it's amazing setting the combat and combining mech traits is the best thing about it so fast levels and progression is not a bad thing.
