All
mecha are equipped with legs that allow them to walk and
run. A
mecha's size determines its base
speed, as noted in
Table: Mecha Sizes. This section describes various optional flight systems. To build a flight system from scratch, a character must succeed at a Craft (mechanical) check (DC 30) after investing 60 hours in its assembly. A character without a mechanical
tool kit takes a -4 penalty on the
skill check. The character must also make a
Wealth check against the flight system's
purchase DC.
AFTERBURNER SYSTEM (PL 6)
The afterburner system dumps a shot of raw fuel into the
mecha's thruster system, giving the
mecha a temporary
speed boost. The
mecha's fly
speed is doubled for 1 round. The afterburner system is good for only one use; additional activations require additional afterburner systems.
Equipment Slots: 1, must be torso, back, or leg.
A jetpack combines vectored thrust with simple avionics, granting the
mecha a fly
speed of 100 feet (clumsy). The jetpack carries enough fuel for the
mecha to travel a total of 1,000 feet; refueling has a
purchase DC of 16.
Equipment Slots: 1, must be back or boots; or 2, must be left leg and right leg.
Jet-assist wings allow a
flying mecha to maneuver more effectively, but do not provide the mecha with the ability to fly. A mecha with jet-assist wings improves its flight maneuverability by one category (clumsy to poor, poor to average, and so on).
Equipment Slots: 1, must be back or shoulders (Large or Huge); 2, must be back or shoulders (Gargantuan or Colossal).
Thruster boots combine powerful fusion thrusters to give the
mecha a fly
speed of 150 feet (poor).
Equipment Slots: 1, must be boots.
RAMJET THRUSTER BOOTS (PL 8)
The best thruster system available uses ramjet technology to improve the performance of the PL 7 thruster boots, granting the
mecha a fly
speed of 200 feet (poor).
Equipment Slots: 1, must be boots.
