Forum: Design Submissions Posted: 01-Apr-2003 00:10 Subject: RE: Hard points |
I can see why heat sinks aren't mounted (just on the piping and what not), but I would say that each weapon mounted in a hardpoint generates 1 less heat (to a minimum of 1) thanks to being just "hung" ... |

I don't think the OmniMech was a bad idea, but it horribly abused. Inst ... |

Quote:The current fluff just isn't that good, IMO. To say the future of Btech as a product relies on that is like admitting defeat (IMO).
