One question though.... maybe I just missed it before.....

Any reason why the hull of the razorfang is "stronger" than that of the
Kommodo and the Dragon King???? Both the Kommodo and the Dragon King has the
Carapace/Warp Jump Generator hit location, while the Razor fang just have a
Carpace hit location! Is this a type error or is there any particular reason
for this? I sure makes the smalest Titan more resiliant than its larger
brothers!
