📋 About This Mod
What started as a simple mod to add a few custom heroes for people I often co-op with, this mod rapidly evolved after a few particularly cursed suggestions.
Featuring such cursed things as:
An Urbanmech with 2 engines
A Raven with an Arrow IV
A Longbow with lots of ballistics
A Blackjack that can JUMP but not for long
A Flea with a RAC/5
And many more.
I've added some slightly more normal heroes as well, because I got tired of the base game heroes. More will slowly be added provided I have the time to do so. Suggestions welcome.
Also added a Hero Endurance quirk for hero urbanmechs, because YAML doesn't have one (this applies to the base game heroes as well)
Mod requirements:
Yet Another Mechlab
Yet Another Weapon
Yet Another Equipment Collection
Current hero mech list:
43 total variants over 31 different chassis
Adds 36 new hero mechs to the game, ranging from conventional designs to bizarre loadouts. For players seeking more variety beyond the base game heroes. Stands out for its sheer number of new mechs, though the description is cut off.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons

For mech game players who want more hero variety without waiting for official DLC. If you're a completionist or love collecting unique mechs, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you prefer lore-friendly or balanced additions — some of these are 'abominations'.
