Gyros counteract the massive amounts of momentum generated from 'Mech engines and allow for precision maneuvering and recovery from stability-impacting attacks. All 'Mechs come equipped with a stock Gyro, which can be upgraded for improved performance.

An Actuator is a component within a BattleMech's limbs, composed of the joint, myomer bundles, and motor control units.

Generic Actuators

Hip

The default hip actuator in every 'Mech.

Manufacturer: Generic
Tonnage: 0
Critical Slots: 1
Install Location: Hip
Value: 30,000
Gear ID: emod_leg_hip


Equipped Effects:

  • None.

Critical Effects:

  • DESTROYED: Reduces walk and sprint distances by 60%
  • DESTROYED: Movement (walk/sprint/jump) requires piloting checks to prevent falling over
  • DESTROYED: Unable to perform kick attacks

Found On These 'Mechs:

This is the generic hip actuator found on every 'Mech.


Stable Hip

Designed to better absorb stability damage, this actuator helps to lessen the shock of incoming attacks and to distribute the impacts better. This leads to the mounted mech being much more able to absorb stability damage.
