Patch 2.24.11 Applied:
Almost a month, but this one contains a long-awaited unit type that I've been putting off but finally got to. Details of what's included are as follows:

Fixes
  • Fixed an issue with ProtoMechs where ammo was being required to be distributed.
  • Fixed an issue where the readout overview,, under certain scenarios, would show different quantities of equipment than what is listed in the distribution.
  • Fixed an issue where the initializing dialog would hang when editing units equipped with modular armor.

Changes
  • Changed how information related to engines, heat sinks, and cockpits (type, technology, and model) is stored in the database for easier, more consistent, retrieval.
  • Added the ability for users to design Superheavy Tripod BattleMechs and IndustrialMechs.

NOTE: Any forces or units impacted by the above fixes and/or changes have had their stats recalculated to ensure accuracy.

================================================================================================
Overview:
    Using the classic Clan nomenclature for vehicles, the Proioxis was named after the
    personification of the onrush of battle.  Which is an entirely too esoteric concept, but is
    what happens when "Mars" and "Ares" were used up in the first 5 seconds of naming clan
    vehicles after war gods.  Still the name found is a fitting one.  The Prioixis is dedicated
    to delivering infantry, normally battle armor, into combat as expidiously as possible.

Capabilities:
    The chief weapon is speed.  Speed and stealth.  Stealth and Speed.  Our two weapons are
    stealth and speed and chaff pods.  Our three weapons are Stealth, and Speed, and Chaff
    pods.. and an Infantry bay.  Our four... no... amongst our weapons... hmmm... amongst our
    weaponry... are such elements as Stealth and Spee... I'll come in again.

Deployment:
    So in universe fluff...  Stone Lions mostly.  Built a fairly nasty battle armor suit for
    them.  Now they just need to deliver it.  Hobbies also could fit the same basic platform
    into their forces with some differences.

Variants:
    So if you look at the movement, and then you look at the alpha strike movement you'll notice
    it's just fast enough to max out TMM.  This is intentional.  The design was originally
    intended to be used for mechanized infantry tactics.  It can still do the job, but the loss
    of the ambusher discount on most infantry units hurt.  Still, the Pure alpha strike variant
    drops armor and uses an XXL engine to crank up the IT to 10.  This actually reduces the PV
    since you're not paying for the 1 point of armor that won't save you anyways if you get hit.
    In return you get a nearly impossible to hit transport that can pick up 2 points of battle
    armor and plop them out in someone's back arc with absurd ease.  Which is nice for most
    people and just plain winning for me since my BA points do 7 damage.  The bonus damage from
    being in the rear is just icing for ne.
