@Vixen
that you would have to ask Herb, Coleman, ect over at the BT official website as they are the creators and the final word on the matter.

Anything pgi would offer would be invalid.

The official construction rules stated that only the AC/20, Ultra AC/20 and LB 20-X could be split this way among the autocannon familes, and the most restrictive firing arc had to be used when splitting... so if its split left arm / left torso, the firing arc was that of the torso, even if they drew the artwork so the barrel was out the arm.

So in the table top, if you had no hands, you could not drag battlefield salvage off. In otherwords, removing one hand to free up a slot you would get 1/2 salvage payout, and if you removed 2 then you would recieve none. This isn't a big deal if your a vetran with several hundred mill in banked c-bills.....

Would be nice if pgi can add a disable or enable hand actuators feature but not removing the actuators because it's a battlemech.. so IS mechs can aim and torso twist like a clan mech with less mouse movement when lower/hand actuators are off.. torso twisting with arm lock on requires more mouse movement than when arm lock is off so that would be nice for IS players.. and when arm lock is off you can torso twist fast but your damage from hand and torso weaps are spread.. I hope pgi adds a feature like that.

That is one of the reasons why clan mechs are more convenient to play than IS mechs..
