Hardened Armor: Yes or No?

[Psycho]

Anyways, the historian in me had to point that out.

That's cool. Always interesting to know how inaccurate information comes about.  :)

I was suprised that hardened armor could not be in a LAM . I thought the only restriction was no armor that ate critcal space . Still if you are making an updated LAM look to see if Composite IS , Small cockpit , and armed with a LVPL and an srm would do ? Composite IS takes up no crit space and small cockpit and varible pulse lasers fill the Inner Sphere weapons only . Snub Nosed PPC or Plasma Rifle may make it interesting . I hope you got the yes or no answer for this thread .

Discussions on LAMs should probably be taken to a new thread.

I think I ave found a loop-hole.

Sounds like something to ask about in the Rules Forum, in case it's something the devs overlooked and really need to close.

Actually it is right in the rules. Patchwork armor. Use hardened to protect the important stuff and cover the arms and legs in standard. No movement penalty.

That's no loophole, that's always been the intent of patchwork armor rules.

Well then, that makes sense.
