I can shoot you the Notepad file, and I might be able to dig out the HM file I have.

But what's a ".blk"?

I think this could have been done a bit cheaper, if slower. Did you consider twin light PPCs instead of the lasers?

Unless I didn't see them, the version of HMVee I'm running doesn't have Light PPCs.

Perhaps as a custom weapon.

Kraken if you go to Rick's main page for HMPro there is a link to download for custom weapons file that adds in all of the weapons from the newer core rule books. Simple to follow instructions on how to install it and it would give you a major set of options to use for building given that levels of tech are no longer used and they have gone to the is date specific thing.

Not exactly a fan of determining tech levels by date, for various reasons.

Seems to be the new thing, stuff like RLs (rocket launchers) and other "older" tech that is new to the game is now considered to date before 3025 or as TPTB like to call it pre-3039, so a heavy rifle even though it's new to the game is now dated to be BEFORE autocannons came about and would be seen during the Age of War time frame, heavy rifle is similar to current world tank guns, theres a light and medium as well. Anyway I have yet to actually meet any players who give to flying farts about what tech you have on your mech in a game as long as all are having fun. So you mileage may vary.

I've "backdated" a lot of "old-looking" weapons and even built some 3025-Mechs with them too.

I'm thinking of saying that this has a built-in "living area" for the crew that consists of a fold-out cot, a small "bathroom" area (toilet, shower, and storage for toiletries), and a small "kitchen" (stove and mini-fridge).

As part of it, I'm also thinking of saying that this has a water purifier and a limited amount of on-board storage for water.
