This would be cool on the Arctic Cheetah, where you could mount 2 machine guns. A single balistic hardpoint is silly on a 30 ton mech, 2 would be somewhat interesting.

yup, also just imagine a 12MG SHC, not Meta, but sure would be fun to Run,

This is the third omnipod thread I've read in two days. I like this one.

I heard the game balance cry out in fear, when I saw the title of this thread.

Of course everyone wants them, because it makes the clan mech more powerful, so let go down this route and see what se stupid quirks get introduced to balance a timberwolf with two high shoulder mounts.

Clearly people want PGI to had more heat to CLPL again with these suggestions ?

well as ive stated the Problems that have some up like 2xECM, Locked Equipment(WHK-LT) & TBR-A-LT,
ive Tried to come up with ways to Balance all these Things, with teh Feed Back from others Of course,

as such we have come up with,

=Key Rules For Balance=
These are Rules Set in place to Balance Some Combinations,
Combinations that May be Too Powerful together,

=Locked Equipment Balance Notes=
OmniMechs that have Locked Equipment will still have Said Locked Equipment,
as the Equipment is Locked to the Chassis not the Pods them Selves,
(This includes the KFX-LT(2DHS) WHK-LT(4DHS) & DWF-LL(1DHS)

=ECM Balance Notes=
OmniMechs may only Ever Equip 1 ECM Enabled OmniPod,
this should fix any problems with having x2ECM on an OmniMech,
(This includes the Problematic, KFX-C-RA and HBR-Prime-LT)

=Quirked Balance Notes=
for Balance OmniMechs that Have Nagative Quirks on some pods are Stuck with them,
if they Double up on those Pods, they will also Double up on the Nagative Quirks,
(This includes the Problematic, TBR-A-LT(3Energy) that keeps Comming up),
=
Because i know Someone will Bring up the TBR-A LT,
yes a TBR could have 6 High Mounted Energy, i am aware of this,
All PGI would have to do is Increase the Negative Turn Angle Quirk just abit to Fix this,
(With -10%TurnAngle, -20% with Both Pods, A TBR with Both would have 70*TurnAngle)
(just 10*TurnAngle More than a DWF, i think this would Balanced Out 6 High Mounts)

Some of the mechs you could build would be a lot of fun... Hello 12mg shadowcat
But some would be really op. So I am against ambidextrous omnipods.
