When piloting a mecha equipped with advanced gyroscopic stabilizers the operator gains a +2 equipment bonus on all move-related checks, including Drive checks, Jump checks, and Climb checks, Balance checks and checks against being bullrushed or overrun.A mecha equipped with an advanced gyroscopic stabilizer loses one equipment slot.Equipment Slots: 1, equivalent.Activation: None.Range: Personal.Target: You.Duration: Persistent.Saving Throw: None.Purchase DC: 8.Restriction: None. [HR][/HR]Ablative Plating (PL 6)An outer hull layer on some mech is designed to vaporize under weapons fire, thereby dissipating energy and protecting the mech's interior. Mechs equipped with this modification will gain armour points equal to one-fourth the hit points of the mech.If a mech has 75 hit points then it has 19 points of ablative plating. Each attack reduces the armour points of ablative plating by 5. When the mech is attacked ablative plating reduce the first successful attacks damage by 19 points; then the second successful attack damage will be reduced by 14 points; then the third successful attack damage will be reduced by 9 points and so forth. Each attack reduces the armour points of ablative plating by 5.When the ablative plating damage reduction reached 0 it will no longer function and the mech will take damage as normal. This defense system cannot be combined with Ceramic Composed Plating or Reactive Armour.Equipment Slots: NoneActivation: NoneRange: PersonalTarget: YouDuration: PersistentSaving Throw: NonePurchase DC: 10Restriction: NoneNote: This system could be added to vehicles and even armour. On personal armour, has an armour rating of 10 for light, 15 medium, 20 heavy and 25 for powered. Each hit reduces the armour rating by 2.[HR][/HR]Ceramic Composed Plating (PL 5)This defense system effectively covers the mech’s outer covering with ceramic composed plating. This type of plating makes the mech more resistant to heat and fire based attacks. This type of plating grants the mech fire resistance 10.

A cheaper alternative to duraplastic, and usually used in civilian construction mechs.Plastisteel can also be used as a building material for mech superstructures.Equipment Bonus: +1Armor Penalty: –2Speed Penalty: None.Purchase DC: 5 + one-quarter the mech’s base purchase DC. </blockquote>
