− OmniMech internals (other than their engines, cockpits, [[gyroscope]]s, and other basic structures) are designed to mount these modular "pods" instead of a specific loadout. All weapon systems and most equipment can be placed into an [[OmniPod]]. Mounting these systems into an Omni-pod is FAR quicker and easier than customizing the internal structure of a BattleMech to mount non-standard weapons or equipment. The "free space" in an OmniMech into which these Pods are mounted is referred to as its "pod space." Thus, OmniMechs are far more flexible in their roles. + OmniMech internals (other than their engines, cockpits, [[gyroscope]]s, and other basic structures) are designed to mount these modular "pods" instead of a specific loadout.

The differences between BattleMechs and OmniMechs encompasses more than just changes to their internal structures ("bones"). However, these other differences are beyond the scope of this article and will not be addressed herein.
