Ok,
So I'm not much of a modder, and really in the near future I won't have time to play much less mod this game.
However, I think a cool addition to the game, or a mod if someone wanted to do it would be the following.
The "feel" of the game IMO is that its too glitzy, we read the cannon about hundreds of years of succession wars, and all of these broken down barely running mechs, and yet we are all running around with + and ++ weapon types, and complaining that there isn't enough lostech lying around.
What about this?
- and -- weapons and parts
Make a series of "downgraded" garbage guns that your worn out mechs start with, instead of that shiny new Kali-Yama ++ AC20 you get a -- garbage cannon that jams half the time (don't know if we can actually do jams in the game, but lets say it does less damage or less stab damage or whatever). Also it would make the stock weapons a bit more appreciated.
Also I'd like to see longer lasting effects from battle damage. Loose a leg on a mech? -1 move permanently unless you install a +1 leg actuaor.
I think it would be fairly cool to have run-down rattle trap mechs that I recall reading about in the novels.
Anyone want to give it a shot?
