-The '''Small Laser''' is the default weapon for any newly spawned [[Battle Armor]]. It's impressive range of 400 meters stands out amongst the lineup of other options, however- its paltry damage output makes it difficult to justify taking out of the hangar, save for very specific circumstances.
+The '''Small Laser''' is the default weapon for any newly spawned [[Battle Armor]]. Its impressive range of 400 meters stands out amongst the lineup of other options, however- its paltry damage output makes it difficult to justify taking out of the hangar, save for very specific circumstances.
 In [[Terrain Control]], this weapon can be a lifesaver for helping repel damaged enemy forces in a hurry, or capitalizing on an overreaching enemy in a factory-capable capture point to generate some extra [[CBills]] before buying your asset.

 ====Features and Utility====
-This Laser has the highest damage output of all the Battle Armor's available weaponry. A necessary addition to any loadout- focusing this laser in conjunction with [[Battle Armor Weapons#SRM-2|BA-SRM]] can quickly destroy any component. Its pinpoint accuracy and incredible damage are only limited by it's extremely short range and the need to focus its relatively long burn on target, while not becoming an easy target yourself. An experienced pilot who can tame this jumpy beam can even utilize it as an effective means of removing enemy Battle Armor.

 ====Features and Utility====
-The Grenade Launcher rapidly fires arcing projectiles with a moderate splash radius. The explosion is large enough to damage multiple components if directed towards Mechs and Vehicles, making it especially deadly if focused on a Side Torso of an enemy mech. A great weapon for defending points in [[Terrain Control]], with it's projectile arc it can be utilized from behind cover and the top of buildings with impunity. While the radius is too small to warrant it an effective weapon against other Battle Armor, a landing a direct hit with one of the grenades will kill an enemy Battle Armor, however it's a very tricky shot to land!

 The moderate kickback from this weapon is enough to greatly increase your mobility if utilized correctly- albeit at the sacrifice of any subtly or stealth.

-The '''Man Pack PPC''' (often abbreviated to '''mPPC''') is a favorite of many Battle Armor pilots for a variety of reasons. Its impressive range is easily leveraged to both harass from afar, and to finish off weak opponents. It's large splash radius disorient opposing Battle Armor caught with an EMP effect, leaving your opponent dazzled with static and easy to finish off. The recoil of the weapon can be used strategically to increase a pilots maneuverability, a godsend considering most Battlemech have the capacity kill a Battle Armor with a single well aimed shot.

 These incredible features are only limited by the long durations it takes to draw the weapon, compounded by the longer duration it takes to recharge a shot; and how the dazzling projectile is a bright arrow revealing the location of the Battle Armor who fired it.

		+	To kill an enemy BA with the SRM-2 it is best to wait until it has landed or is about to land. The splash is rather large, but one SRM is usually enough damage to kill a BA, especially if the enemy BA is already damaged. Since two missiles can be fired in quick succession, it is advised to shoot each missile at a slightly different angle in increase the chance that one of the missiles will hit the enemy BA.
