DragonMech - Pathfinder conversion

Hello everyone, this is my first post and my first work of conversion.
I introduce myself, my name is Gabriel and I am Italian, so you will excuse me if my English is struggling a bit.
I'm trying to convert to pathfinder, in a balanced manner the classes and mechanics of Dragonmech, is a very complex work, although I have several ideas, for now I managed only to put together the Steamborg class.

this is the link

Seeking feedback and advice from anyone, especially on the balance and the powers that I practically invented from scratch inspired by other classes.

thank you all.


Hey there Gabriel! Always glad to meet a fan of Dragon Mech- looking over your Steamborg as we speak. Just wanted to let you know I was once ran a Dragon Mech one-shot with Pathfinder, though I did little conversion on my end. Instead I used the Mech rules from Little Red Goblin Games, found in their Gonzo 2 PDF, and I also used the Golemoid from the Thunderscape setting as a replacement for Steamborgs. Game went over well but I'd still love to see someone try updating the old material into Pathfinder. Thanks Gabriel!

thanks for the advice, I read the Golemoid and I must say it is very similar to the Steamborg, to have known earlier I would have saved myself a lot of work, I like the mechanics who use it and maybe I implement some for my Steamborg, but I liked the idea of maintaining the power ups and artificial parts divided.
For sure I will copy something from that manual and take inspiration from Thunder Scout for some powers of MechJokey, i already had an idea to give him a basic mech like an animal companion.


Good to have some free Steamborg stuff out there. ;)

updating
Here's the mechjokey, and i added the rules for personal mech (all mechs that can be operated by a single pilot) each mech jokey receive one free on the first level and is very similar to the eidolon but the mechjoky must operate him in person.
I have to finish to fix the rules for combat but will be very similar to the original ones.
I also added the ability to have a Power Armor, very similar to Ashigaru of Ironthot tribe and that obviously do not follow the mech conbat rule.
Let me know what you think
