I would advocate for 3 stealth armor slots in each torso & only 1 slot in each arm. My reasoning is that only 4 torso slots are supposed to cover front/back/head/middle while 4 are needed to cover just the arms??

It would be better to get those arm hardpoints more slot space, or even better, allow one stealth armor slot to move between the torso and arm so there is better loadout flexibility.

Its so hard to say for sure, lot of mechs for example atlas ddc would be better in the arms, but the phoenix hawk would be better in the torso.


I kind of wish it would just work like ferro and use up slot anywhere and not in set locations.

I think its fine how it is. It doesnt really affect the mechs that should have stealth armor.

And quite frankly people should not be putting stealth armor on mechs like atlases.

NO!

Just let the tabletop rules work as they are, so we can build the same way.

That was an example another would be cda3m it only has hardpoints in the sides. Arms would be better on this.

I'm more interested in a fun online Mech game than pure TT rules... TT rules don't always make sense...
