Course even those old mechs that can't fight ammo burns will sooner dump their core than let it go critical. You'd need a total and instantaneous detonation to compromise the core before the computer dumps it, and at that point the meltdown is just fuel in the HEAP fire.
Older ones couldn't dump their core either, mate. :/
But yeah. Looong time ago, Somehow jammed 6 PPCs on a thor. Moment I alpha striked the core blew, lel.
So yeah. Remember, during that period flamer arrays were fricking EVIL weapons. Could just shut heavies down and let everyone else pick em apart like Vultures. ;P
