Professor Benedict clearly aimed to center the Mars Project around the Magma Vein System. Though it was only a theoretical concept for now, it promised extreme power and great adaptability as long as he managed to turn it into an effective implementation.
Ves even grew jealous that the Mars Project would enjoy this fantastic energy transmission system while the Larkinson Clan's expert mechs had to make do with more boring alternatives.
The result of this was that the Mars Project would have a definite edge over his own expert mechs in terms of direct physical combat power.
Fortunately, there were areas where the Mars Project could not measure up against the Larkinson expert mechs. His works were all prime mechs on top of expert mechs, so they interacted and synergized with their expert pilots to a considerably stronger degree.
