Mechanic Expert Custom Rig implant with Rakmodoi computer upgrades


Rules Questions


07 all! I have a question about Mechanic's Custom Rig.

As it said, from 7th level I can install into my Rig-implant computer upgrades. Everything were OK until I decided to install the "Rakmodoi Computers, Mobility Unit, Legs" upgrade.

How can I calculate the price of an upgrade?
Can it carry me with it's speed?

Thank you for your attention and please, forgive me for my poor English.

So we don't go hunting pointlessly through multiple source books, could you please tell us the source for the Rakmodoi Computers, Mobility Unit, Legs upgrade?


While you can add computer models to your custom rig....I don't think adding the legs module makes sense unless you have a handheld custom rig. But compared to the other options, I don't know why you would.

It's Attack of the Swarm volume 3? 4?

If I understand your question correctly, you have implanted your Custom Rig, and are trying to add a module to it now that it counts as a computer with a tier equal to half your level.

If that is the case, my thought would be that you can not install those modules, as they are based on the size of the computer, and the computer in this case is a teeny tiny device in your brain, so the mechanisms that you would try to attach to that device based on the rules would be to small to effectively move the much larger character you are playing. By way of explanation through mental imagery, you would be installing limbs for something smaller than a mouse, and then be trying to use them to move a character that is Small or Medium. The effect would be decidedly silly.

If I misunderstood, and you are trying to install the mods in a datapad or equivalent, then yes, you could do so, keeping in mind that the rules say the modules cost 10% more for non-Rakmodoi computers.


I apologize for not checking the forum, I was busy irl. Yes, we were talking about Attack of the Swarm volume 3. And yes, I tried to fit them onto an implant in my head. Thanks a lot for your answers!
