1. My Battlemasters actually prefer not equipping Endo for more DHS room, if two-slot DHS is a thing.

2. Thank you for reminding me another blatant tech difference that was not balanced by PGI. #buffsforISendoandferro

The free DHS slots is interesting, but what about ballistic boating IS mechs that do not need them? IS ballistics are pretty darn heavy, thus requires Endo most of the time.

Well, the problem can also be solved by making IS weapons simply run colder. No need to get so fancy.

The XL issue is more that it blocks AC/20s and 2xUAC/5 builds that could really synergize with the speed, not DHS boating.

LFEs would solve that...but I digress...

I think I'm more or less neutral on that idea.

On 1 hand it would help out IS mechs at least a bit, and particularly mechs with sub-250 engines (although sub-250 engines should stop getting the shaft regardless).

On the other hand, should we really need to do that to give Inner Sphere a helping hand? It seems like there's more appropriate methods instead without more or less inventing advantages out of thin air.

Maybe that is the sort of thing we need though.

Clan Xl on a clan Battlemechs obsolete Clan STD Engine on 99 % of clan Battlemechs. PGI doenst really care.... so thats not an argument.
