✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Makes turrets a real threat without being overpowered—author tested on Smithon and it felt balanced.
- Simple tweak that adds challenge for players who find vanilla turrets too squishy.
- Tiny mod, easy to install and remove if you don't like the changes.
⚠️ Cons
- Tiny community footprint (6 endorsements, 80 downloads) means limited feedback and testing.
- Last updated in 2018—might not work with current Battletech patches or DLC.
- No detailed documentation on which turrets are affected or exact numbers, so you're trusting the author's word.
For Battletech players who want tougher turrets and a bit more challenge in base defense missions. If you're a completionist looking to spice up vanilla gameplay, this is a quick add. Skip if you prefer lore-friendly or more comprehensive balance overhauls.
