Has anyone notice that the bomb rating for mse chassis is not tied to the module installed but to the chassis itself. i read that when a bomb module is inserted into a mse it is given a 10 point bonus. but last night i put 1 power 6 bomb module with a item storage in a few adv mse's and they came out power 26 rather than 16. this happend to the one adv MSE i made with just 1 bomb Module.

Very interesting indeed. So it looks like it's applying the +10 bonus per module, not necessarily per detonation module. I doubt that is by-design, but an interesting bonus to configuring these things.

FYI, don't you guys think it's just a wee-bit dangerous selling bomb droids with item storage?

Nah, us Brits only start to get worried when its a ruck sack on a train.


As to the game .. *sigh* .. no option if the customer wants bomb droids they have to have storage to work )

Hmm, interesting ..


I know when I made my old detonation droids it was with MSE Advanced with 2 modules. The resulting value was 34 power .. so:



  • MSE - 1 module - 16

  • MSEA- 1 module - 26

  • MSEA - 2 modules - 34

I won't feel so bad about selling single module MSEs now so that I can add the storage module in to make it work. 8 points difference wont be much of a power difference Im sure. But may start selling non MSE detonation droids .. but not sure yet ..

Oh...is this because of the radial menu problem? So adding in that module will make it so you can detonate it?
