- This whole thread could go away if FASA simply made ECM to increase
- target numbers for the affected systems (or even all systems if they
- liked). It is simple and requires no additional dice rolling and
- consistant with a lot of other FASA games...
-
- Actually thinking about it increasing all target numbers isn't a half
- bad idea (maybe all bad but not half bad :). After all it kind of
- makes hitting things harder again and really can save the butt of the
- lighter mechs in these clan happy days...
-
- I'd also increase the usefulness of the beagle probe. As is it is
- kind of a waste...maybe it can tell you which mech is painting you
- with TAG or C3...maybe I'm playing too much Centurion :). Those
- templates are rather fun to work with...although it does escape me why
- you don't build every tank on maxed armor :).
