Am i missing something, how many Specials can a mek have access to?

Hey, in the building meks section the chart doesn't match up with what the text describes. Unless I'm misunderstanding the BUY/SELL aspect (highly likely) the text examples and the chart come out different. 


The written chart is: 

|HP:_____|Move:_____|Slots:____|

| 2                | 10"              | 2        |

| 4                | 8"                 | 3        |

| 6                | 6"                 | 4        |

| 8                | 4"                 | 5        |

| 10               | 2"               | 6        |

------------------------------------------


But the text examples would come out as:

|HP:______|Move:_____|Slots:____|

| 2                 | 12"               | 1        |

| 4                 | 10"               | 2        |

| 6                 | 8"                  | 3        |

| 8                 | 6"                  | 4        |

| 10              | 4"                  | 5        |

------------------------------------------

I've not played this yet, so no idea which one is more balanced, but I'm making myself some sheets to laminate to track mek stats and just noticed this while making my own charts.

This was an old typo that should be fixed in the downloadable rules. The written chart is correct. Thank you for bringing it up!

It says 4" or taller in the 28mm scale, but that technically includes 40k Titans! - Is there an upper size limit?    Seeing a lot of potential in this for Gundam, Zoids, Mech bashes...

Loving the start! Can't wait for more. Played a game last night with some random minis and it feels like a bare bones mix of Lancer and Gamma Wolves.

There is no upper limit, make Meks as big or small as you like!

Thank you, that is high praise. I hope you play more games and have fun!

I saw Trent Holbrook talk about this game on a recent video and downloaded the rule set. Seems fun and I love the idea of building units out of my bits box. I'm not sure if this already exists, but I built a spreadsheet that simplifies mek stat building here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UePV2yRD_E92zG74ZYMh2aZQFWufO0vT4ZNHHPP2... 

Let me know if this is helpful or has any errors and I am happy to make updates. You can just make a copy of the linked sheet to start editing your own units. Simply select options from the dropdowns to build a unit.

Thanks,
Ben

This is really useful! Thank you!
