Doesn't it always suck when you it turns out you don't have options you always thought you had 
I'd just like to know how SD has enough time to actually look at the crit charts of all of those 'mechs. I never even glance at them.

Well, just to drop my nonsense of no 2 cents in here... moving ES and FF is forbidden in the rules because it IS a FIXED item. Period. There really is no question here fellas

Rules state that the type can't be changed but there is nothing written about moving them, or did I miss something?
|

That would depend on how you define "fixed", wouldn't it? The rules say you have to assign those crits to certain hit locations, where they have to stay. It's not stated that you can't move the slots up and down within the location, but I'd not do it.

TROs are here, but I usually have my TROs and RSs at hand.

I usually ignore moving anything within the same location. Some designing programs even force you to do so. For example the Drawing board will always install CASE to the last position in side torso, so you must move everything upward. I usually mark all FF and ES to the bottom of each location (like here) to ease me the work with already created RS (I fill them by hand).

Well I've looked at a fair number of them in my RS books.... namely ALL of them
I read every single mech in my RS books at one time to familiarize myself with them.

Well, except you are allowed to move ES and FF up and down in their location, as per stock RS books.
Yet other fixed items you cant. Yet another FASA booboo hehe. But yeah, odd isn't it?

As I interpret it, the crits taken up by FF isn't the armour itself, but more by extra mounting points and the like, which would in turn explain why they're fixed.

Yes, and Yes. But to respond to ICER's question, the same way you replace other fixed items, like a fixed laser, heat sink, or active probe. You park the 'mech in a repair bay and open her up and do it the hard way like IS techs do to standard mechs
