BattleMechs / Re: 'Warcriming the Militia' - Battlemechs of the WoB

Ok - life intervened, and I had some corrections and stuff to do with the stupid MML files being corrupted somehow.  So, I need to keep a paper copy, too.  Sooner or later, I'll be able to print the PDF off (although maybe I should do it now, since the PDF won't get corrupted?  I'll have to consider it.) and do the RS book.

So, several screenshots.  Here's the first.

Did Metallica ever get that much radio play?  I don't think it did in my area, at least. I think I only ever hear them on satellite radio stations that frankly play a lot of artists that really shouldn't get any play at all.

Yeah, Case White & the WD Attack were both acting on old intel, outdated, incomplete, and thought they would have a field day going in w/o realizing an entire SDS network had been built in the last decade.

Then again, none of this is true historical, so maybe we should be blaming authors for giving us characters who can't do the basics of intel & recon before charging in.

On Mechs they're bad, do Chem Lasers need heat sinks when used as handhelds?

On vehicles they're godsend.

Glad to see that one of my ideas has generated so much discussion...

Something like this would be a good way to balance out cLPL+TC monsters!

Though as you said, this would mainly apply to Standard and ER lasers... And I guess also Heavy and Chemical Lasers. (Though let's be real, Chemical Lasers are bad enough as they are.)

I could see a lot of IndustrialMechs being made using these rules. IndustrialMechs are pretty crit-starved in my experience, and the additional bulk being a potential "battlefield liability" wouldn't exactly be a problem.
