Monocoque and Semi-Monocoque
Construction


Monocoque and Semi-Monocoque servos are just a different form of construction for mecha. Instead of having a skeleton holding it all together, your mecha's hull would bear the weight of it all. It's a multiplier system. These rules are from V-Max #7 volume 2:

Monocoque(X -0.1): Your hull bears all of the weight, with no internal bracing, like an exo-skeleton on a bug. For this negative modifer, your servo's space all go up by +50%. But your Mv goes down my -2, and can never be less than -2 despite all of the other goodies you put in your mecha.

Semi-Monocoque (X -.05): Your hull only bears half, or a small portion of the weight. Unlike Monocoque construction, it has additional internal bracing. For this negative modifer, your servo's space are increased by +25%, and your Mv goes down by -1, and can never be lower than -1.
