- |\|o, they're correct. Almost all of the vehicles in TR 2750 use
- fusion engines, which need 50% of their weight added in "shielding
- and transmission equipment." The Von Luckner and Packrat vehicles in
- TR 3025 are actually missing the extra shielding/etc. and are actually
- incorrect (at least in the original, error-riddled copy that I have).

-
-
- |\|ope, as I said, no errors. XL engines still need the extra
- shielding/etc. too.
