XTRO: ComStar
Page 18

Tessen mounts 4 MPL in the left arm instead of the c3 Remote Launcher and Ammo. It also is lacking the Left Hand Actuator mentioned in fluff.

Replace MPLs with c3 Remote Launcher and ammo, add Left Arm Hand Actuator. Move 1 critical slot of Endo Steel from Left Arm to Left Torso.

XTRO Comstar
Page 6, Exterminator

According to TacOps p. 336, The Null Signature System takes up one critical slot in each location except the head

Change NSS Critical from 8 to 7
Under Notes, append "except the head" to the line "*Null-Signature System occupies 1 critical slot in every location."

Now it won't have two things crammed into that one available slot in it's head!

XTRO Comstar
Page 11, Fury
The weight of the turret should be changed from 1.5 tons to 2 tons.
The design is still valid though because it's 0.5 ton underweight.

Page 9, Lightning
As discussed in the general discussion forum the design seems illegal since a vehicle can't generate more heat than
it has heat sinks.
The obvious if regrettable solution is to replace the stealth armor with regular armor.
Another more exotic possibility is using a clan chemical laser.

Page 21 - The 641-X-2 Highlander Record Sheet
The Left Arm has 30 points of Armor, the Right Arm has 25 points of armor

Page 7 lists the armor as

R/L Arm                  30/25

Suggested fix, change the record sheet to match the TRO Entry (30 on the Right Arm, 25 on the Left Arm) in order to protect the Gauss Rifle better.

pg. 7.  Numerous mentions of a Highlander HGN-634 variant.  This is described as a Com Guard wide refit.  They probably mean the HGN-736.
