New item: Lightweight Plating

[CDR_Xavier]

20 weight. Offers exactly half the punch of platinum plating. E-D.

____
The reason it is E-D is because at half of the punch it require more power per hp, and that in order to have the same amount of hp one will need two slots instead of one. It do not offer significant advantage over iron plating.

Useful to balance mechs out. when just a tad of weight remaining.

not half as much, maybe 40% to justify it being e-d

Well, as long as "if it is maxed and it have less hp than a maxed iron plating" then it's all good

Although if using this to "save weight" instead of iron plate might cause some other unwanted difficulties

It could be like a "f2p plat plate" but it's half as effective (because slots)
