Had a new idea: Improved Insulation
Type: Mech Module
Cost: 5 million C-bills, 10,000 GXP (Values open to discussion)
Description: Reduce the effects of ambient temperature on your Mech by 10%.

Notes: This is very similar to the quirk possessed by the BLR-1GHE and would be most effectively used on hot maps. Let's say you're running a hot build and are going into a Private Match on Terra Therma (or Caustic, etc). You could equip this module to help mitigate the hot, ambient temperature effects that lessen your Mechs cooling ability. Like the BLR-1GHE, the module would also lessen the cooling effects that water or cold maps would have on your Mech.

In short, it's a niche module that helps provide a bit more diversification between Mech construction by enabling pilots to further differentiate between their builds.

Given the preponderance of new weapons modules, and the critical nature of modules like Seismic and Radar Dep, can we get some of the other module values boosted to make them more useful/competitive against them? Case in point, could the values for Hill Climb and Improved Gyros be doubled so that there is actually a reason to equip them?
