small errors, or things that aren't in AC, but should be

I never really understood what those stat numbers on the generators stand for (in LR). If they're talking kilowatts, then i'd say its not really enough to power a whole city. But if we're talking about the performance of AC4's mechs then i'd have to see a screenshot of the generators first before i talk my head off. Modern-day aircraft carriers use huge nuclear power generators to provide energy for the whole ship. The output those monsters are capable of are rumored to be able to handle the power needs of a small town but nowhere near enough to power a city. Although maybe in the future (or AC4's timeline) they'll be able to downsize those powerplants to a more manageable size but still be able to retain the power efficiency of the original models.

I wouldn't be too keen on utilizing small-sized nuclear powerplants in mecha. If we follow standard mecha conventions and place the cockpits in nthe torso of the mech, then the only logical place to put the power source would be just behind the pilot. Not only would that be a risky area to place it if something went wrong with its operation, the heat emanating from the thing, coupled with battle stress and other factors would tire the poor fool who pilots the mecha.

Small-sized mecha like ACs and mobile suits could theoretically be produced only if military contractors and other developers start with larger ones. The Titans from Warhammer 40k are a good size to aim for if/when ever our technological prowess gets that far.

Like that'll happen in our lifetimes. Wish i could be reincarnated when the militaries of the future start using mecha when they initiate the next world war.
