OK, I can buy this for a dollar. Expensive as hell,
and probably also require FGP engines.

I'm hesitant to hang this on PA since they have
limited energy budgets.

Eh? No firer systems down? And if you're just
changing the mobility kill to systems down, I wouldn't
see why it's worth it.
Suggestion: Instead of damaging when the damage =
armor, it counts as target systems down.

it's good for those of us whose backgrounds include a

Wait a minute. . . they look suspiciously like MDCs. .
. but vulnerable to ablative armor. Just a minute,
here. They are the same as MDCs, but with increased
ranges for the size 1 and two. Most noticable with
the size 1.
