Mods

Mods

Mods are abilities that normally cant be seen on a unit or their equipment, such as reinforced armor, or better energy generators. Unlike systems, mods do not cost additional points of DC to equip as their cost is tied to their pilot rank. the higher a unit's pilot rank, the more mods they are able to equip, as show below:

Mods per rank
