Mech wheels



Mech Wheels are a system that replaces the mech feet with the eponymous wheels. Only a single wheel-set is provided per leg, so the 'mech need to be a Quad or Tripod for mounting them.

Rules
 Mech wheels cost 0 C-Bills since they are actually cheaper than the regular foot components. They have the following effects on the 'mech: Thus, wheels free up 1 critical per leg as well as give a rebate in tons. However, their minus are that they change the movement to an inferior type, and make falling easier and getting up harder.
 * They reduce the total structure weight of the whole unit by 5% per leg (rounded up to the nearest .25 ton)
 * They replace the foot actuator and upper leg actuator with a single "wheels" slot.
 * They change the movement type to "Wheeled".
 * They generate a +1 penalty on the "falling" and "getting up" piloting rolls.

Having wheels may have some advantages however, such as being able to use Primitive Booster Jets to temporarily increase speed.
