Zombie 'Mech

A design philosophy that emphasizes survivability for the BattleMech. A typically zombie mech can endure a great deal of damage without taking crippling critical hits or losing major weapon systems. Typically such a 'Mech will have heavy armor and limited or no weapons that expose the BattleMech to the risk of ammunition explosions. XL engines are often seen as a design flaw for a zombie mech.
