General Details
Name: Extended Jump Jet
Type (Category): Jump Jet (Other)
Reference: Interstellar Operations: Alternate Eras (p. 59)
Description:
Impressed by the sustained VTOL capability of Cloud Cobra’s Sylph battle armor, Clan Snow Raven sought to use the technology as a springboard to provide similar capabilities for their ProtoMech and BattleMech programs. Though the Raven scientists never managed to apply the technology as envisioned, they did manage to create ProtoMech-scale jump jets powerful and efficient enough to match the capabilities of BattleMechmounted improved jump jets. During the Wars of Reaving, the Ravens’ Society cell siphoned the project for proliferation among its own ProtoMech efforts.
Game Rules:
ProtoMech extended jump jets are the effective analog to BattleMech improved jump jets, enabling a maximum jump distance equal to the unit’s Running MP rather than its Walking MP.
