Hero mechs are the things of legend, they are the ones that come from lore and fantasy novels. In their universe they are the heroes that many drunken songs have been sung about, their stories are passed down from generation to generation and recorded in their history books. In the base game there is some reason for using hero mechs because they have access to equipment that the other mechs don't but this is a failure on the game of developers not that of the mech's. With mods we can have a fully unlocked mech lab with access to full equipment that should have been in the base game but with that what makes the hero mechs stand apart? What makes them better than any other? Not much is a sad but true answer.

Hero Mech are legends they say legends are made of something stronger, something that makes them go just a little further, just a little faster and do just a little more. We all get knocked down but Legends never stop getting back up! So this is just an attempt to try and correct this because hero Mech should be heroes and not common the same as everyone else.

Unlocked by doing any 1 Mech Collector mission. It's my understanding that having normal skill tree progression could break other mods this way affects few things and has not done any harm to the mods I use. However this is something I'd like to experiment with later.

Why a trait tree? Mods can add custom hero mechs that I can't edit unless that moder allows access to his uncooked files so I need a way to boost hero mechs with out editing the mech it's self.

I have plastered the word HERO in a few different forms all over this mod so hopefully people get the point is to improve hero mechs. I apologize but I lack the skill to make blueprints so that the hero traits can only be equipped by hero mechs. So yes you can apply them to normal mechs but that is not the intention. In the end I'm only giving you a tool what you do with it is up to you. Just as if I hand you a screwdriver I have no control if you want to use it to cut your steak.

Why release if mod doesn't work as intended? I may not have the skill to finish the mod correctly but I did put a lot of time, energy and work into what I did do. I like my mod, I'm proud of what I made! I want to share what I did and I hope you will like it too.

If you are able and willing to make the blueprints to finish the mod for me I would much appreciate it please contact me!
