====== Powered Armor ======


ENERGY ARMOR (PL 6) Energy armor is one of the most basic forms of powered armor available. It possesses a basic power supply and an integrated com-puter capable of providing a wide variety of data to the user via the built-in heads-up dis-play (HUD). Energy armor also has several integrated servos and motors that increase the user’s freedom of movement, making en-ergy armor a popular choice among explor-ers and adventurers. Additionally, many tink-ers and craftsmen prefer energy armor as a base model to receive modifications, as it pro-vides a solid basis for modification. Energy armor provides the following benefits (in addition to its armor value): +4 bonus to Dexterity Integrated computer HUD Radio communicator 

POWERED SCOUT ARMOR (PL 7) A favorite among deep space explorers, pow-ered scout armor is a combination atmos-pheric and interstellar exploration suit capa-ble of functioning in almost any environ-ment. Powered scout armor assists in the ex-ploration, mapping, and evaluation of new worlds and locales, and some military organi-zations use it for their advance recon forces. Powered scout armor provides the fol-lowing benefits (in addition to its armor val-ue): Environmental seal Sensors: chemicomp, geocomp, Gal-Pos device Computer with HUD Jetpack Jump jets Radiation shield Universal Communicator 

GADGET SUIT (PL 7) Seizing on the popularity of the energy armor in the previous Progress Level, the manufac-turers of the gadget suit sought to create a suit of powered armor capable of accepting and integrating gadgets right from the start. The gadget suit typically comes with almost nothing installed save for a basic power sup-ply and the connections to hook any pow-ered equipment into the armor. Most manu-facturers sell basic gadget suit, though many craftsmen prefer to purchase the base model and add all their own gadgets. (The purchas-er of a gadget suit may choose Wealth +5 worth of gadgets at the time of purchase.) 

PATROL SUIT (PL 6) A favorite among law-enforcement and mili-tary organizations, the patrol suit makes use of cutting edge sensor and communications technologies to coordinate patrol teams and provide real-time information access to alerts issued by headquarters. Patrol suits also typi-cally include capture and containment gear, and some agencies actually provide patrol suits to every member of their force in case a situation arises where emergency patrols are required. Patrol suits provide the following ben-efits (in addition to their armor value): Speed Booster Jet Pack Computer with HUD Sensors: armacomp, democomp, mo-tion sensor, sensorlink Universal communicator 

PERSONAL ALL-TERRAIN (PAT) ARMOR (PL 7) Though heavy and slow, the PAT dominates urban battlefields in a way that tanks and APCs never could. Consisting of durable plat-ing, an onboard computer, heads-up display. Exoskeletal strength assist, and battery array, the PAT not only protects its wearer from most small-arms fire, but enables the wearer to wield heavy weapons without penalty and provides computer targeting. The PAT Series 1 armor suit provides the following benefits (in addition to its ar-mor protection): +2 Strength +1 equipment bonus on attack rolls +1 equipment bonus on Computer Use checks HUD Radio Communicator 

SPACE COMBAT ARMOR (PL 7) Space combat armor consists of heavy body armor with an environmental seal and built-in communications gear. Additionally, space combat armor boasts a jetpack specifically designed to function in space, allowing the wearer to maneuver in zero-g conditions. Space combat armor can be difficult and un-wieldy, but makes even an individual soldier a threat in ship-to-ship combat. 

URBAN ASSAULT ARMOR (PL 7) Used by law-enforcement and military units, urban assault combat armor helps prepare the user for combat within cities, space sta-tions, and other highly developed environ-ments. Urban assault combat armor provides protection from unruly mobs, allowing a sin-gle character to fend off hundreds of rioters or criminals. Additionally, when used by squads, urban assault combat armor can ena-ble a handful of soldiers to quell an uprising of hundreds or even thousands of people at a time. Urban assault combat armor provides the following benefits (in addition to its ar-mor value): Environmental seal HUD with ammunition tracker and sensor link Sensors: armacomp, democomp Jump Jets Integrated Weapons: gravity snare, laser pistol, stun grenade mini-grenade launcher, tear gas launcher Universal communicator 

BODY TANK (PL 7) The invention of small, sturdy, powerful ser-vos makes the “Body Tank” powered armor possible. Most of the armor consist of neu-tronite alloy plates, with flexible carbon fibers at the joints. The Body tank is exactly what its name implies—a heavy, full suit of armor that turns a single soldier into a mobile fortress. Despite its bulkiness, the body tank’s servos and precision crafting allow surprising mobility. The armor’s great weight is support-ed by its own servos and gyros, so the armor and all of its integrated equipment do not count against the wearer’s carrying capacity at all. The wearer can still use his hands, and is able to wield weapons up to two sizes larg-er than his own size category, including heavy weapons, without penalty. Like OICW armor, the body tank is de-signed to link to the wearer’s weapons and other gear, and to other soldiers in the field, headquarters, even ships in orbit. It is not un-common for environmental seals, radiation shielding, or additional weapons to be added to body tanks’ integrated equipment. In addition to its significant armor val-ue, the body tank grants the following bene-fits to its wearer: +2 Strength Integrated Equipment: Trauma Pack II. 2 packs, 1 automatically triggered when wearer takes 5 or more points of damage. Sensors: motion sensor, Darkvision 90’, Low-light Vision, rangefinding laser scope, sensorlink, GalPos device. Computer with HUD and ammunition tracker. Unicom, nanobeacon, and laser trans-ceiver. Integrated Weapon: Bantam launcher.
