General Details
Name: CASE (Prototype)
Type (Category): Equipment (Other)
Reference: Interstellar Operations: Alternate Eras (p. 65)
Description:
In the late 25th century, HAF ’Mechs and other combat vehicles were suddenly becoming less and less susceptible to destruction from catastrophic internal explosions. It took decades before the secret—Cellular Ammunition Storage Equipment—made its way through the Inner Sphere, and many more years before nations outside of the Hegemony had finally produced their own serviceable copies.
Game Rules:
When a unit suffers an internal explosion in a location protected by prototype CASE (CASE-P for short), roll 1D6. On a result of 1 or 2, the CASE system fails to vent the explosion in time and the explosion is resolved as if the unit does not have CASE.
