Options

You may apply up to one of the following options.

Jump Jets: The battlemech gains a new Movement Mode before SlowFly: Minimum Speed 0 meters, Maximum Speed 75 meters, 0 meter Turning Radius, Climb 15 meters, Instability 2, aerial. The battlemech is worth 15 additional points.

Quadruped: The battlemech gains two additional legs, and doesn't suffer from losing legs until it loses a second one. This weighs 3000 kilograms.

You may apply any number of the following options.

Nuclear Engine (Requires Miniaturized Fission technology): The battlemech's speeds increase by 50%, its carrying capacity increases by 3000 kilograms, and its Power Regeneration increases by 3. When the Engine is destroyed, it explodes, making a ranged attack against every creature and unattended object in a 300 meter spray for 1d6+4 Heat damage, with an accuracy of +5. The battlemech is worth 20 additional points.

Components

Legs (Two, targetable from any side except Top): HP 2, Toughness 6. Destroying a leg forces the battlemech to fall prone, and lose the ability to stand up again.

Engine (Targetable from Rear): HP 2, Toughness 7. Destroying the engine forces the battlemech to travel at half the speed it was moving on the previous round, then come to a halt.

Passengers (Concealment from Left and Right, targetable from all sides other than Bottom or Rear): This is not really a component. Make attacks against the creatures inside the Battlemech at a -2 penalty.
