Can I now destroy mechs by taking out a leg?
Not quite. If you destroy a mech’s leg, it will now fall to the ground, but it is not yet considered destroyed. As before, you must either destroy it’s other leg, or destroy enough torso criticals. When you do, it will, as before, explode. In other words, if you still see the mech, it’s not yet destroyed. Also, if a mech has jumpjets, and you destroy one of its legs, it will fall down, but will usually soon hop into the air with its jets and continue attacking you, so watch out. • How do I get aerospace support to work? You are limited to 2 people helping you on any mission. This includes: • your lancemates in their mechs • your aerospace pilot If you take two lancemates in their mechs into battle with you, then your aerospace pilot will not come along. If you want to have air support, you’ll need to leave off one of your lancemate mechs, and take only 1 (or zero) lancemates with you, and then your assigned aerospace pilot will be present and available in the mission.
