Super heavies shouldn't be allowed to use certain equipment.

From a Facebook Conversation on Super Heavy Construction. Currently MML allows Super Heavy mechs to be built with the following systems:

Updated list broken down by Tab:

Per IO pg 162 these systems are not allowed.

To clarify the Chassis.

Super Heavies can be made using Mixed Tech, but the Clans do not have Super Heavy structures of any sort.

Per IO pg 48 on the Universal Technology Advancement Table, there are only 5 Super Heavy Structure Types.

I took care of the invalid engines in the process of fixing #49 .

[ravionhawk]

I see.

I made the list for Hammer just before I grabbed the latest release. Thank you.

So under other equipment MASC is allowed?

[ravionhawk]

MASC and TSM are on the "Enhancements" drop down menu on the "Structure/Armor" tab.
They are prohibited on Super Heavies.

[neoancient]

I did not see any reference to super-cooled myomer in the superheavy rules or superheavies in the scm rules.

[ravionhawk]

Let me check on that.

I added it to the list based on the fact that TSM and MASC (both myomer enhancements) are prohibited.

[ravionhawk]

We may need a ruling from CGL. The way the rules for SH in IO on pg. 162 reads, you can not use ANY type of myomer except for SH Myomer. Doesn't mention SCM.

But the rules for RISC Super-Cooled Myomer (pg. 94) does say that SCM can only be used on Battlemechs and Omnimechs (non-pod) which is different from Superheavy Battlemechs and Superheavy Omnimechs.

There might be an errata coming down the pike to cover this.
But we definitely need a ruling from CGL.

[ravionhawk]

Matter of fact, with the prohibitions with SCM and how it works, looks like it needs to be put in the same spot as TSM and MASC.
