All Core technology share a single, universal flaw that so far no one has found any way to counter act. On the back of the core, a large opening to the inner engines of the mech can be seen. These engines are a massive vulnerable area powered by explosive fuels.  When attacked from behind and hit in the torso, defending players must make an explosion save while having the DC of the Explosion save increased from 5 to 7.

In addition, attacking players receive a plus two to any rolls on the critical damage chart when rolling for critical effects if the critical was scored on the back of the torso. For example, if they scored a critical and chose to roll on the cinematic critical chart, and then rolled a 8, it would immediately become a 10 and the defending player would receive a power plant overload, thus knocking them out of combat for the rest of the battle, as well as vulnerable to being picked off.
