Hmmm.....this should be interesting, will have to revise my Mount Modd again

Any idea when the next patch will come out?? This should really affect the AI when modded correctly

Tech requirements?? Does this mean I can have 'Ionic Weapons' used only in 'Heavy Mount' or better, or only use 'Ripper Beams' with 'Extended Range' mounts??

Tech requirements means you can assign technologies that must be researched before the mount can be used, just like components and facilities.

Component families means you can make a mount usable by only ONE component family rather than leaving it open to all weapons of the same type. I hope MM will expand that just slightly to take a list of component families like the Vehicle Type requirement takes a list. We shall see.

Anyway, you see how precisely this can be used now? A special set of mounts can be hidden in a racial tech area and made to work only with certain weapons that come with the racial tech area.
