I’m not really sure I understand battlesuits anymore. They’ve lost Assault on their weapons, so I guess everyone’s taking Coldstars now. But they’re (Flying) Vehicle Walkers now?
So they can Tank Shock lmao (5 or 6d6, MW on a 5+). For 1CP, do three crisis suits roll 15d6? And then they can shoot their guns while in Engagement Range (at -1 to Hit unless you take Weapon Support Systems to prevent that), or shoot their guns while Falling Back (again, if you take the Battlesuit Support System for that). It’s kind of a silly picture, but ~5 MW to clean something off the table is a fun trick to keep in your back pocket lol.
And vehicle helps them survive the CIB Hazardous overcharge? (On a 1, model destroyed -> 3 mortal wounds instead.)
But they can also be shot at while in Engagement Range 'cause Vehicle lol. And worse, anti-vehicle weapons apply to them too.
Just take coldstars.
