In the original Battletech, it took three engine hits to destroy your mech. I don't know what it is set to in MWO, however, it seems to be one engine hit as I never see more than one message in the log. Why isn't it set to three engine hits? I think the first hit should slow your speed by 1\3 and the 2nd hit by 2\3, and the third critical on engine hits your mech is destroyed! xRaNgEr

Engine crits do exactly nothing in MWO.
The "engine destroyed" message comes from destruction of CT (or a side torso if you have an XL engine).

The MWO crit mechanic involves items having HP, so a single medium laser hit will not necessarily destroy a component.
