Currently the site does not want to let me put a Ram Plate on a Quadvee. I think I should be able to.
Ramplate rules say they go on Quad Battlemechs.
Quadvee rules say: "QuadVee follow all the same construction rules as four-legged ’Mechs, with the following additions and modifications:"
The additions and modifications restrict the cockpit, and require conversion equipment, but otherwise do no restrict any other equipment.
I also think that TSM should affect the Vehicle mode's cruise MP.
Rules say that: "For tracked
QuadVees, the unit’s Walking MP and Running MP translate
directly into Cruise and Flank MP (respectively), while Wheeled
QuadVees receive 1 extra Cruise MP in Vehicle mode, and
recalculate their Flank MP as normal."
Thus if the walking MP goes up, the Cruise MP goes up. Also if heat affects the mech negatively the cruise MP should go down. Its only the MP penalties from leg actuator hits that are ignored. (The Quadvee rules are kinda slap dash. The question of "What if the wheels take a critical hit" isn't answered.)
Unfortunately the Battletech forums seem to be down at the moment, Which if these thoughts have been answered in the negative oh well. But if not... then I don't want to ask. Those guys hate fun sometimes and I don't want to draw their attention to an Idea I find funny.
