Source Tech Revolution pg. 96
The following apply to all mechs.
Carrying Capacity: A mech can carry its equipment, operators, cargo hold contents, and small loads without tracking carrying capacity. A mech becomes encumbered when carrying an amount of bulk equal to or greater than 20 × its Strength modifier and becomes overburdened when carrying an amount of bulk equal to or greater than 40 × its Strength modifier.
Computer: A mech houses a personal comm unit and a tier 1 computer that primarily coordinates the mech’s movements and systems. The computer’s tier increases by 1 at mech tier 4 and every 4 tiers thereafter. The superior computer upgrade (page 108) can enhance the computer’s performance.
