Level Structure

Commanders start at level 1 and can morph to level 7. New slots are unlocked at each level.

Level 2	Primary Weapon	Module
Level 3	Subsystem	Module
Level 4	Secondary/Upgraded Weapon	Module	Module
Level 5	Subsystem	Module	Module
Level 6	Subsystem	Module	Module
Level 7	Module	Module	Module

Modules

In each Module slot the commander adds one of the following modules, up to the stated maximum:

• Ablative Armor Plates (max 6): Increases HP
• Damage Booster (max 6): Increases damage
• High Power Servos (max 2): Increases move speed
• CarRepairer's Nanolathe (max 2): Increases build power
• Autorepair Module (max 2): Increases auto-repair
• Field Radar Module (max 1): Adds radar

Each commander chassis specialises in a particular module:

• Strike: Autorepair max 2 > 6
• Engineer: CarRepairer's Nanolathe max 2 > 6
• Guardian: Advanced Targeting max 0 > 4
• Recon: High Power Servos max 2 > 6

Weapons

At Level 2:

• Every commander gets a Primary weapon.

At Level 4:

• Strike and Guardian commanders choose between a second Primary weapon or a Secondary weapon.
• Support and Recon commanders choose between replacing their first weapon (if applicable) with an Upgraded weapon, or a Secondary weapon.

Subsystems

Each chassis has a selection of Minor and Major Subsystems, to be chosen in the Subsystem slots. Major subsystems cannot be chosen before level 5.

(Limit one Major subsystem overall? Not sure if necessary.)

Weapons Listing

Weapons not listed are not fundamentally changed.

• Heat Ray should be really strong.
• Terrabomb does some terraform thing like a Quake.
• Electron Jet is similar to Flamethower, but EMP damage instead of fire.
• Scatter Beam is a beam shotgun as in Trisula.
• Railgun has similar characteristics to LPB: longer range but less damage than other hitscan-esque weapons
• Change Engineer Beam Laser to a Buoy-like weapon?
