📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Directly addresses two common balance complaints: PPCs feeling weak and missiles being too strong.
  • Small but dedicated following (7 endorsements) suggests it works for some players.
  • Lightweight mod with no dependencies, easy to try out.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2019 — may be incompatible with current game patches.
  • Only 7 endorsements means it's not widely tested or community-vetted.
  • No detailed documentation on exact changes, so you'll have to test in-game.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Battletech players who feel PPCs are underpowered and missiles are too dominant. If you want a quick, personal balance tweak without overhauling the whole game, this might fit. Skip if you prefer comprehensive balance mods with active support.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's an older mod, check if your game version is compatible before installing.
  • Back up your original game files if you're manually installing, so you can revert if needed.
  • Test in a skirmish match to see if the balance changes feel right for your playstyle.
