So, I've been meaning to build an armor storm soldier for a little while, and found myself confused by the wording of enhanced tank. It gives one more upgrade than normal beyond its normal maximum number of upgrade slots. I'm confused because I see two clearly obvious interpretations.
1: You can have one more upgrade than normal, no matter the number of slots it occupies.
2: You have one more upgrade slot than normal.
The armor storm FAQ heavily implies the latter, but I'm not certain... Especially because said FAQ's ruling also implies that if it IS one slot, I'm not allowed to have a 2-slot upgrade occupy my bonus slot and one normal slot, which seems like a serious but potentially necessary limitation, depending on how powerful it was intended to be.
Anyone know which one it would ve?

...And I just realized that, at the end of the ability, it uses the phrase "bonus slot". Okay, that makes more sense. Every mention of the addition in the ability except for the last sentence says "bonus upgrade" and I seemed to have missed that list line. Thanks for helping me with that! :)

This is actually an unsolved question, and I have another thread about this for FAQing purposes. I also FAQ-marked your post. :)
Here are the facts, and the facts are these:
1) There are three sentences in the rule referring to what you get.
2) These two sentences refer to you getting an upgrade, not a slot: "You can add one more upgrade to your armor than its normal maximum number of upgrade slots." "If you add this bonus upgrade to heavy armor, you can select an upgrade normally limited to powered armor."
3) This sentence refers to you getting a slot, not an upgrade: "An upgrade placed in this bonus slot costs half the normal credit amount."
4) This 2-sentence FAQ entry refers to you getting a slot, not an upgrade, but is not a FAQ entry on the question you asked.
60% of available sentences suggest a slot, and 40% suggest an upgrade. Do with that what you will.
