Vehicles

In addition to hostile battlemechs, you will also encounter a number of ground-based vehicles. These either support enemy lances or act as skirmishers. Unfortunately for them, most of them are hardly a threat for even the lightest of battlemechs, though some (generally 60 or 80 tons) carry heavy weapons that can cause trouble if you're not careful. They take extra damage from melee attacks, and many can be destroyed in one hit, even from lighter mechs. Many are poorly protected enough that you can also kill them with with energy weapons to conserve ammunition.
