Anyone else read the entry in CM Mercs that all they did was replace the SHS in the engine with DHS?

looks to be a bit more drastic than that. the structure value decreases indicating an XL and the armor goes up. damage goes up too so there might be bigger lrm racks or more lasers?

Yeah, I was wondering about XL when it included engine . . . damage increasing- well I do not know the AS formula but being able to fire more consistently strikes me as a way to increase damage.  Hmm, a XL engine does let you get the 99% armor and increase the LRMs to 15s . . . of course, I would prefer to trade 1t of the SRM ammo for more LRM.  So 95% armor, 3t of ammo on the LRMs and 1t SRMs . . .

Just wondering what people thought, I mean we are behind enough for 3145 RS so a offhand statement in CM Mercs? lol
