"Tell you what; I'll run this by Walt, because he likes being kept in the loop, but as far as I'm concerned, once we arrive on Outreach, we'll get you a full overhaul. I'm pretty certain there's a GM supply plant somewhere on that dustball, so you can get the beastie babied and brought back up to modern spec by techs trained on how to build one from scratch. As for the modifications that you're likely thinking of, well, that'll have to wait, but I do like yanking out that Autocannon and slapping in a decent laser; you'll need more, or Double-strength freezers to counter the heat load. Personally, I'd suggest springing for a Sutel Precision Large Laser, replace the freezers with double-strength, and add some armour to that frame; the Marauder's a wonderful 'mech, after all, but its side torsos are notorious for being thin-skinned."</div></div><br/>Also, welcome aboard PaladinZenaku<br/><br/>cursed snow... :P<br/>Matt<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>In the end someone needs to run it via Perkins since he is in the know of the company finances. The reason I want some sort of exchange to happen is that the Company have spent a LOT of C-bills on travel, repairs and buying new equipment the last six months and a complete rewiring of the Marauder will be a pretty penny as well. What Erich said is one thing, what happens a whole other. If he comes to Walter with this he will essentially say; "Why are<em>you</em>bringing this to<em>me</em>?<em>He</em>should bring it to<em>Perkins</em>." Just as military personnel has to go through the quartermaster rather than their commanding officer. And while Perkins won't say no to the restoration it will have consequences for the company as a whole.
