no prob, dude. That arc came and went without pain nor glory through the Marvel timeline.
GDI Orca Mk Iv from 3rd Tiberium War/Kane's Wrath.
An upgraded version, Korhal version and one built by the Cylons.
Orca Mk IV
The Orca Mk IV is the latest in the Orca line used during the Third Tiberium War. Following a similar design to the Orca Fighter of the previous war, it has short stub wings behind the cockpit that holds the weapons, which are designed to carry multiple different types of weapons from twin 30mm cannons, Hellfire or Sidewinder missiles, or Hydra 70 unguided air-to-ground rockets.
About midway point two wings extend out and up, containing two get engines for forward thrust, and the ends of the wings contain VTOL contra rotating closed fans that allow NOTAR design (NO Tail Rotor) tail design, reducing weight and vulnerability of the tail fan being damaged. The Mk IV also includes inflight refueling and reloading capabilities when such a support craft is available, which allows the Mk IV to remain in flight and reduce the time before it can return to combat.
The Orca Fighter is 58.3 feet (12 squares) long, 48 feet (10 squares wide) at the edges of the turbofans, and the pilot has nine-tenth cover (9/10th) protected by an armoured canopy. Takes a full round action to enter and another full round to start the craft. The crew consists of the pilot and copilot/gunner. The Mk IV also has a pulse scanner to help detect stealth craft, and can be upgraded with sensor pods that can deploy remote sensors that can detect stealth units for a short time with their radius of operation.

Note: If pilot has at least 6 ranks in Pilot and Aircraft Operation (Helicopters), as long as the craft moves gains +1 Dodge bonus to Defense. Missile launchers can be fire-linked, increasing damage by 50%, Reflex save by +3. Has VTOL capabilities, able to hover. +1 to attack rolls.
Hellfire (Air-to-Surface Missile)
The hellfire is an air-to-surface, laser-guided missile used primarily to destroy tanks. It can also act as an air-to-air weapon against helicopters and other types of aircraft.
When the hellfire missile hits its target, it explodes like a grenade or other explosive, dealing 15d6 points of damage to all creatures within a 15-foot radius (Reflex save DC 20 half). Because its explosive features a shaped charge designed to penetrate the armor of military vehicles, the hellfire ignores up to 15 points of hardness if it strikes a vehicle, building, or object. However, this applies only to the target struck, not to other objects within the burst radius.
Hellfire missiles have a minimum range of 100 feet. If fired against a target closer than 100 feet, it does not arm and does not explode (but it still deals 3d6 points of ballistic damage, and hardness is not reduced). Hellfire missiles can be fired only from a missile platform mounted on a vehicle. (This cost is already factored into military vehicles that regularly carry these missiles.) This platform provides a +2 equipment bonus on attack rolls made against targets that have been acquired by the aircraft's laser designator.
To fire the missile, one must first acquire the target with the aircraft's laser designator, which requires a full-round action. Someone else can acquire the target by using a portable laser designator (see below), which allows the helicopter to remain behind cover until it fires. After this target acquisition, firing the missile is an attack action. Once fired, a hellfire missile travels one range increment per round until it reaches the target, at which point, an attack roll must be made. A hellfire missile has enough fuel for 5 rounds of movement before crashing to the ground and exploding.
Sidewinder (Air-to-Air Missile)
The sidewinder is a short-range, air-to-air missile carried by aircraft, and it is used to bring down other aircraft. It has a heat-seeking guidance system that enables it to home in on the engine exhaust of other aircraft.
Sidewinder missiles have a minimum range of 500 feet. If fired against a target closer than 500 feet, it does not arm and does not explode (but still deals 3d6 points of ballistic damage). Sidewinder missiles can be fired only from a missile platform mounted on a fighter aircraft. (This cost is already factored into military vehicles that regularly carry these missiles.) This platform provides a +4 equipment bonus on attack rolls made against targets that produce a considerable amount of heat -- specifically the heat produced by the jet engines and turboprops that power most modern helicopters and planes. The sidewinder cannot be fired at targets that do not produce heat. They can be fired at hot targets on the ground (such as idling aircraft), but without the +4 equipment bonus.
To fire the missile, one must first acquire the target, which requires a full-round action. After the target is acquired, firing the missile is an attack action. Once fired, a sidewinder missile travels one range increment per round until it reaches the target, at which point an attack roll must be made. The missile makes a single attack roll each round until it hits or runs out of fuel (10 total rounds of movement).
When the sidewinder missile hits its target, it explodes like a grenade or other explosive, dealing 20d6 points of damage to all creatures within a 10-foot radius (Reflex save DC 20 half).
Sensor Pulse
The craft has a sensor system that emits a combination of several detecting methods, including Sonar, Radar, Lidar, and others. If the craft is moving at half speed gains a +5 to Computer Use/Search checks to detect any stealth objects. If the vehicle is stationary, gains a +10 bonus instead. Using the Sensor Pulse is a standard action and it reveals targets within a 5 mile radius for 1d4+1 rounds with a 2 round cooldown between uses, and the crew can rely the information to any allies it is in communication range with.
Sensor Pod
This device contains several small devices that function like the Orca's Sensor Pulse, allowing the craft to drop them and activate them immediately, or a short time later. The devices are 3 foot diameter spheres, with built in parachute to allow them to land safely. The devices have a +10 bonus to Computer Use/Search to detect any stealth items within a 500 foot radius for a maximum of 6 rounds, and can begin transmitting any detected stealth items immediately, or can be set to activate within 1 minute later in increments of 6 seconds up to 1 minute delay. Once activated and runs out of power, it releases an acid to self destruct, transmitting its data to the craft that released it, and up to 10 designated allies of the craft that released it, as long as all are within 30 miles of the sensor. Releasing a sensor is a standard action, which can be done while moving. The devices have 10 hit points, hardness 3, Defense 10, weighing 40 lbs. Sensor pod contains 10 of these sensor devices, replacements are PDC 20 Mil (+3) for 2.
Inflight Refuel/Rearm
The craft is designed with an extending arm that allows it to be connected to an aircraft that has refueling capabilities. The pilot must make a Pilot check DC 13 (plus any penalties for weather and other conditions) to fly into position and maintain the position for 5 rounds to refuel. If the refueling craft also has the capability to rearm, it can also rearm the Orca Mk IV.
Missile Lock Alert (PL5)
A passive sensor that ties into the radar detecting missiles with basic trajectory and momentum data of incoming missile attacks. The craft gains +2 to Defense against all Missile weapons
Variants
Orca Mk IV-B
This variant of the Orca Mk IV has some improvements and is assigned to elite or veteran units. It has improved targeting systems, payload of any weapons carried are doubled, has flares added for additional defense. Also these craft can mount railguns as an additional optional weapon.
Make following changes to Orca Mk IV to make an Mk IV-B:
Increase hit points to 51;
+2 to attack rolls with projectile weapons (30mm cannon, railguns), +3 with missiles against ground vehicles and structures, only +1 with missiles against aircraft;
Increase hardness to 12;
Can use Railguns as an optional weapon;
Ammunition for any equipped weapon is doubled (except the railguns);
If equipped with Sensor Pod can carry 20 sensor devices;
Add Flares (10 uses);
PDC +2 Mil (+3)
Flares
Flares are designed to distract missiles that seek their targets based on heat signatures, rocketing off in random directions to confuse targeting systems and draw away the missiles When activated (free action), the pilot can make an opposed attack roll against any incoming missile attack; if successful, the missile targets the flare instead.
Korhal Orca Mk IV
This Orca variant was created by techs and engineers using Dominion technology, using the Orca Mk IV as the base frame. The Korhal Orca Mk IV is fitted with improved environmental seals and life support, the weapons are replaced with those found on the Wraith, including the cloaking device, however it has a more limited operation time. The Korhal Orca can be modified with most of the same upgrades as the Wraith, except the reactors to increase the time of the cloak, but the bio-steel and other armour upgrades can be applied.

Accessories: Military Radio, Searchlight, GPS, thermo/nightvision, laser designator. Cloaking screen. Environmental seal with 12 hours air.
Note: If pilot has at least 6 ranks in Pilot and Aircraft Operation (Helicopters), as long as the craft moves gains +1 Dodge bonus to Defense. Has VTOL capabilities, able to hover. +2 to attack rolls. Gemini missiles additional +2 vs aircraft, can't be used against ground targets, burst laser additional +2 vs ground targets, but -4 vs air targets, Autofire Reflex DC 17.
Cloaking Screen
This device wraps light and energy around the ship's hull, rendering the ship invisible to visual and electronic sensors. A cloaked ship has total concealment, to attack a cloaked ship attacker must guess in which square the ship currently is (through some means of sensors, or guessing), and even if accurate, there is a 50% chance the attack misses. Can't be used in conjunction with chaff, or any other fields.
The Korhal Orca Mk IV can only remain cloaked for 8 rounds under combat conditions, or 8 minutes while moving at cruising speeds, after which requires a 10 minute cool down.
Gemini Missiles
Gemini missiles are designed for use against other aircraft and starships. Against such targets they grant +2 to attack rolls, but suffer -2 and critical is only on a natural roll of 20, to attack targets on the ground.
Burst Laser
The burst laser on the Wraith is a standard laser with semi and automatic fire capability, gains +2 to attack rolls against ground targets, plus the Reflex DC for the Autofire attack is 17 instead of the normal 15. If the autofire is used against a target of Huge size or more, and it fails the save, the target suffers double damage. Against airborne or space craft suffers -4 to attack rolls.
PDC: 30
Res: Mil +3
Cylon Orca
The Cylons managed to acquire the plans for the Orca Mk IV, making modifications to suit their needs, including replacing the cockpit with a techno-organic pilot brain similar to their Raiders. While many would think having an atmospheric only craft is counter productive, the Cylons have used them to blend in with forces that use similar craft to infiltrate and ambush. As atmospheric craft, they handle adverse atmospheric conditions better than the modern raiders in an atmosphere. Armed with weapons similar to the modern raiders, makes these craft a significant threat to even starships that have entered the atmosphere.

Missile Lock Alert (PL5)
A passive sensor that ties into the radar detecting missiles with basic trajectory and momentum data of incoming missile attacks. The craft gains +2 to Defense against all Missile weapons
Paired Attacks
When two Cylon craft are attacking the same target from opposite sides in a crossfire, the Cylons can be up to 1500 ft from the target instead of the normal 1000 ft, both Cylons gain a +3 bonus instead of the normal +2. If two wings of raiders are in similar situation, also each deals an extra die of damage against the crossfire target.
Robotic Tactics
Cylons are robots, and as such, are programmed with multiple maneuvers and tactics as pilots. When performing stunts and any other Pilot checks when involved with another Cylon craft, all Cylon craft gain +3 to Pilot checks.
Organic Pilot
The Cylon craft is a techno-organic craft, with an organic brain and other components. The raider is capable of learning and adapting, can take on levels like an NPC. When destroyed, and a Resurrection is within range, the pilot can download their consciousness into a new raider body, allowing it to never truly die and continue to learn and attempt with each new lease on life.
Afterburners
As part of a move action, the pilot can make a Pilot check DC 10, increasing speed to 650 (65) instantly, the afterburners will remain active for 3 rounds, including the round they are activated, and the pilot suffers -4 to Pilot checks. The afterburners can be used a total of 10 times before requiring refueling.

Combat
Archers are ranged combatants and will move to stay at least 20 feet from any enemy so they can use their bow to strike. If they can't get out of melee range, they will draw their sword and use that to defend themselves. If they can fight from cover, they will. They will attack the nearest enemy at 20 feet away or greater. The archer will use their Rapid Fire attack in the first round, and every 3 rounds afterwards.
Rapid Fire
The archer will draw several arrows and can make 5 attacks with the bow in a row, typically at the same target, and if it is killed before all 5 attacks, then switches to the next closest target. Each attack is made at base attack bonus -3 (plus other bonuses).
Keen Sight (Ex)
The Archer is used to working in the dark and low light conditions. Can see twice as far in low light conditions than normal.
Specialty Ammunition
The Archer has number of specialty arrows, which they will use as situation dictates. The Archer has enough skills to make additional arrows given materials and time. The Archer will typically have 50 specialty arrows, consisting of 15 burning (+1d8 fire damage for 2 rounds), 5 net (Reflex DC 15 to be entangled a net, up to 1 medium sized creature), 15 acid (+1d6 acid damage for 2 rounds), 5 explosive (1d6 fire, 10 ft radius, Reflex DC 15 except target struck suffers damage automatically), 10 armour piercing (ignores 4 points of hardness/Defense from Equipment, deals 1d6 points of damage, critical 19-20x2).

Mamma Rippler
The Mamma Rippler, is a large Bug seen guarding nests of Rippler eggs and is their source. They appear as much larger versions of the Rippler, with bloated thoraxes. While they can fly, they are slow, and generally avoid combat, but are capable of launching multiple chitin spikes. Their primary roles are to lay eggs of Ripplers and keep ample supplies of them. They lay multiple eggs at a time, and can force eggs to hatch faster than normal to create an army to protect them in an emergency.

Species Traits
Bonus Feat: Rippler gain Weapon Finesse (Claw) as a bonus feat,
Damage Reduction (Ex): Mamma Rippler bugs have tough exoskeletons that provide DR 2, and Natural armour bonus to Defense +6.
Skill Bonuses: Ripplers gain a +2 species bonus on Climb and Survival checks, gains +4 to Grapple checks made with the pincer.
Camouflage (Ex): Rippler bugs are bred so their exoskeleton colouring matches their environment, granting them +8 racial bonus to Hide checks.
Armour Piercing (Ex): The claws and spike are designed to puncture and rend armour, with each ignoring 3 points of hardness/DR, and 1 point of Defense from armour/natural armour.
Deadly Pass - Rippler Bugs can move their full aerial speed (a x4 move, 320 ft/64 squares) and gain a single attack action. To do this this they must fly in a straight line during the round in which they make their Deadly Pass. The target of this attacks suffers a claw attack, which take place when the bug sweeps past it on its flight path. This does not provoke an attack of opportunity. If the claw attack hits during a Deadly Pass, it inflicts triple damage, and on a critical deals six times damage, due to the speed and force of the blow.
Lay Eggs (Ex): The Mamma Rippler lays 2d10 eggs every day, laying one egg as a full round action every 1d6 minutes, which take 1d4+3 days to hatch, which creates a half sized Rippler (half all stats and size), which takes 3 days to reach full size. However the Mamma Rippler can force the eggs into a hibernation state, causing them to remain dormant for up to 50 years when there is no need or resources are scarce.
Force Hatching (Ex): The Mamma Rippler can, as a full round action, force 1d4 eggs within 50 ft of it to hatch immediately, releasing a Rippler hatchling (half stats and size) that can act the next round.
Induce Frenzy (Ex): As a standard action, the Mamma Rippler can induce a frenzy in nearby Ripplers within 50 feet, for 8 rounds granting them +4 to all attack rolls and damage, increase all speeds by +10, but suffer -2 to Defense. The affected Ripplers do not die at 0 hit points, they only die at -20 hit points but not considered disabled and able to function normally, and upon their death, they explode dealing 3d6 piercing damage to a 10 foot radius.
Combat
Mamma Ripplers generally do not engage in combat, keeping several near them as guards to protect itself and any eggs. If engage in combat, it will induce a frenzy in any nearby Ripplers to quickly dispatch enemies, and if need by, can call reinforcements and force several eggs to hatch to provide immediate reinforcements, then it will escape with at least one or two other bugs with it as guards to a safe back up area as other reinforcements make their way to engage the intruders.
While escaping it will collapse tunnels behind it to slow down anyone following it.
Worker
Worker bugs are physically indistinguishable from warrior bugs, except with a slightly different arrangement in their thorax carapace and mandible arrangement, though this is easily missed in the heat of combat. Worker bugs are generally non-combatant but are sometimes thrown into battle by queen, brain bugs or other leader types, where they act as much the same as warrior bugs, though notably less effective. Workers are used to construct huge tunnel networks common to Arachnid colonies though they will also adopt more menial duties if the colony is not yet sufficiently developed to have bred minion bugs and other servile sub-species.
The mandibles are not designed for combat, and lack the armour piercing capabilities and damage of the warriors, with thinner carapaces. But they are skilled diggers and have innate knowledge for building crude fortifications and traps, and other structures the colony may required.

Combat
Worker bugs avoid combat unless commanded to enter combat by a queen, brain bug, or other command type bugs. If they encounter creatures near them that are not being escorted by warriors or other combat bugs, releasing a scream and pheromone alert to notify nearby warriors.
Species Traits
Damage Reduction (Ex): Worker bugs have tough exoskeletons that provide DR 3, and Natural armour bonus to Defense +2.
Skill Bonuses: Worker gain a +2 species bonus on Climb and Survival checks.
Tunneller (Ex): The Worker bugs are naturally skilled at making tunnels, able to make a tunnel 20 ft in diameter, 10 feet deep as a full round action, reinforced so it doesn't collapse without suffering damage. Larger tunnels will require additional bugs. Simple pit traps, barricades or structures of about 20 feet diameter take 1d6 rounds.
Alarm (Ex): The Worker bug can emit a specific scream and pheromones to alert other bugs of intruders in the colony. Upon spotting intruders, the worker screams as a standard action, summoning 1d4x5 combat capable bugs within 2 rounds within the colony tunnels. Outside the colony tunnels, can summon 1d6 combat buts within 1d4 rounds, with additional reinforcements arriving over time if required.

Armour Piercing (Ex): The claws and spike are designed to puncture and rend armour, with each ignoring 3 points of hardness/DR, and 1 point of Defense from armour/natural armour.
Deadly Pass - Rippler Bugs can move their full aerial speed (a x4 move, 320 ft/64 squares) and gain a single attack action. To do this this they must fly in a straight line during the round in which they make their Deadly Pass. The target of this attacks suffers a claw attack, which take place when the bug sweeps past it on its flight path. This does not provoke an attack of opportunity. If the claw attack hits during a Deadly Pass, it inflicts triple damage, and on a critical deals six times damage, due to the speed and force of the blow.
Lay Eggs (Ex): The Mamma Rippler lays 2d10 eggs every day, laying one egg as a full round action every 1d6 minutes, which take 1d4+3 days to hatch, which creates a half sized Rippler (half all stats and size), which takes 3 days to reach full size. However the Mamma Rippler can force the eggs into a hibernation state, causing them to remain dormant for up to 50 years when there is no need or resources are scarce.
Force Hatching (Ex): The Mamma Rippler can, as a full round action, force 1d4 eggs within 50 ft of it to hatch immediately, releasing a Rippler hatchling (half stats and size) that can act the next round.
Induce Frenzy (Ex): As a standard action, the Mamma Rippler can induce a frenzy in nearby Ripplers within 50 feet, for 8 rounds granting them +4 to all attack rolls and damage, increase all speeds by +10, but suffer -2 to Defense. The affected Ripplers do not die at 0 hit points, they only die at -20 hit points but not considered disabled and able to function normally, and upon their death, they explode dealing 3d6 piercing damage to a 10 foot radius.
Combat
Mamma Ripplers generally do not engage in combat, keeping several near them as guards to protect itself and any eggs. If engage in combat, it will induce a frenzy in any nearby Ripplers to quickly dispatch enemies, and if need by, can call reinforcements and force several eggs to hatch to provide immediate reinforcements, then it will escape with at least one or two other bugs with it as guards to a safe back up area as other reinforcements make their way to engage the intruders.
While escaping it will collapse tunnels behind it to slow down anyone following it.
Worker
Worker bugs are physically indistinguishable from warrior bugs, except with a slightly different arrangement in their thorax carapace and mandible arrangement, though this is easily missed in the heat of combat. Worker bugs are generally non-combatant but are sometimes thrown into battle by queen, brain bugs or other leader types, where they act as much the same as warrior bugs, though notably less effective. Workers are used to construct huge tunnel networks common to Arachnid colonies though they will also adopt more menial duties if the colony is not yet sufficiently developed to have bred minion bugs and other servile sub-species.
The mandibles are not designed for combat, and lack the armour piercing capabilities and damage of the warriors, with thinner carapaces. But they are skilled diggers and have innate knowledge for building crude fortifications and traps, and other structures the colony may required.

Combat
Worker bugs avoid combat unless commanded to enter combat by a queen, brain bug, or other command type bugs. If they encounter creatures near them that are not being escorted by warriors or other combat bugs, releasing a scream and pheromone alert to notify nearby warriors.
Species Traits
Damage Reduction (Ex): Worker bugs have tough exoskeletons that provide DR 3, and Natural armour bonus to Defense +2.
Skill Bonuses: Worker gain a +2 species bonus on Climb and Survival checks.
Tunneller (Ex): The Worker bugs are naturally skilled at making tunnels, able to make a tunnel 20 ft in diameter, 10 feet deep as a full round action, reinforced so it doesn't collapse without suffering damage. Larger tunnels will require additional bugs. Simple pit traps, barricades or structures of about 20 feet diameter take 1d6 rounds.
Alarm (Ex): The Worker bug can emit a specific scream and pheromones to alert other bugs of intruders in the colony. Upon spotting intruders, the worker screams as a standard action, summoning 1d4x5 combat capable bugs within 2 rounds within the colony tunnels. Outside the colony tunnels, can summon 1d6 combat buts within 1d4 rounds, with additional reinforcements arriving over time if required.

Looks good. Though in FEAR 2 the Powered Armors have shields of some kind. Perhaps that might be a variant?
You might look into FEAR: Extraction Point and FEAR: Perseus Mandate for stuff to stat too. They technically aren't canon, but that doesn't matter for Coreline.

Black Ops Light Soldiers
These solders are similar to regular Black Ops soldiers, but are trained for rapid response and mobility. They have lighter armour and equipment which is modified to remove any sharp corners and save weight as possible. They are usually deployed in either APCs upgraded for high speed or by helicopter and repel by rope to get to the ground quickly.

Black Ops Heavy Soldiers
These Black Ops soldiers are fitted with heavier armour, full helmets, equipped with a shotgun in addition to the ASP rifle, and 1 out of 4 members will be equipped with either an Andra SR5 missile launcher or a HV Hammerhead, or other heavy weapons that become available or suit the situation. Black Ops Heavy soldiers are used to defend the most sensitive parts of Armacham facilities, to defend against heavy attackers, or when they need heavier units to secure locations, subjects or resources. Black Ops Heavy Soldiers operate in groups of 4, 8, 12 or 16.
Only mid and high level Black Ops can be turned into Black Ops Heavy Soldiers.
Make the following changes to create a Black Ops Heavy Soldier:
Replace Armour with Black Ops Heavy Armour;

Reduce Intimidate by 2 ranks, increase Knowledge (tactics) by 2 ranks;
Add 12 gauge shotgun with 50 rds;
Add either HV Hammerhead or Andra SR5 missile launcher for every 4th member.
Black Ops Heavy Armour
This armour is a modified version of forced entry armour by Armacham, with heavy torso jacket with ceramic plates over the chest and back, neck, groin and arm protection, with light plates protecting the legs. The helmet completely covers the face with a large tinted visor. The armour comes in grey with black highlights, and also dark blue with black. There are multiple easy to access pockets and pouches, with bands for holding shotgun or specialty ammunition for quick reloading. The shoulders are also padded to allow for comfortable use of the Andra SR5 missile launcher and other heavy weapons.
The helmet contains built in radio and vision enhancement of nightvision, binoculars and protection against flashbangs. The helmets also have a weave of material that was supposed to help against psychic attacks, although its effectiveness is limited. Built into the gloves are fitted with RF ID chips that allow them to unlock doors in Armacham facilities without having to actually carry ID cards. The chips are connect to a heart monitor and if the glove removed from the wearer without properly turning it off, the chip shorts out to prevent its use by unauthorized users.

Combat
Black Ops soldiers are fairly well trained, working in groups, making use of cover, covering fire, squad tactics. They will work together to take down strong opponents, particularly with flanking maneuvers.
ASP Rifle
The Baksha ASP rifle is a bullpup rifle based on the Tavor TAR-21 used by the Israeli Forces, but chambered to use 7.62mm rounds instead of 5.56mm, has a three-round burst mode, an electro-optical scope mounted on top. The heavier calibre makes the rifle a little heavier than the TAR-21

Critical: 2-
Damage Type: Ballistic
Range Increment: 75 ft (not counting use of scope)
Rate of Fire: S, A
Size: Large
Weight: 12 lbs
Ammo: 30 box
Purchase DC: 22
Notes: Features a three-round burst setting. When the three-round burst used with Burst Fire feat, it fires only three bullets instead of five, and can be used with only three bullets in the weapon. Does not grant the use ability to make burst fire attacks without the Burst Fire Feat, without the feat uses 5 bullets, wasting the extra two bullets.
Black Ops Light Soldiers
These solders are similar to regular Black Ops soldiers, but are trained for rapid response and mobility. They have lighter armour and equipment which is modified to remove any sharp corners and save weight as possible. They are usually deployed in either APCs upgraded for high speed or by helicopter and repel by rope to get to the ground quickly.
Make following changes to Black Ops Soldier to make Black Ops Light Soldier:
Armour modified with Lighter version (reduce Defense provided by armour by -1, changes it's category to one lighter, reduce armour check penalty by 1, speed increases by 5 ft to max of 30 ft);
Remove goggles and replace with Vision Monocle;
Remove Intimidate skill and split ranks between Climb and Jump skills.
Vision Monocle
This monocle fits over one eye, provides protection against vision attacks for that eye only, includes zoom functions like binoculars, and night vision, but only in the eye it is fitted over.
Weight: -
PDC: 22 Mil +3
Black Ops Heavy Soldiers
These Black Ops soldiers are fitted with heavier armour, full helmets, equipped with a shotgun in addition to the ASP rifle, and 1 out of 4 members will be equipped with either an Andra SR5 missile launcher or a HV Hammerhead, or other heavy weapons that become available or suit the situation. Black Ops Heavy soldiers are used to defend the most sensitive parts of Armacham facilities, to defend against heavy attackers, or when they need heavier units to secure locations, subjects or resources. Black Ops Heavy Soldiers operate in groups of 4, 8, 12 or 16.
Only mid and high level Black Ops can be turned into Black Ops Heavy Soldiers.
Make the following changes to create a Black Ops Heavy Soldier:
Replace Armour with Black Ops Heavy Armour;
Add Exotic Weapon Proficiency (Rocket Launcher) feat;
Reduce Intimidate by 2 ranks, increase Knowledge (tactics) by 2 ranks;
Add 12 gauge shotgun with 50 rds;
Add either HV Hammerhead or Andra SR5 missile launcher for every 4th member.
Black Ops Heavy Armour
This armour is a modified version of forced entry armour by Armacham, with heavy torso jacket with ceramic plates over the chest and back, neck, groin and arm protection, with light plates protecting the legs. The helmet completely covers the face with a large tinted visor. The armour comes in grey with black highlights, and also dark blue with black. There are multiple easy to access pockets and pouches, with bands for holding shotgun or specialty ammunition for quick reloading. The shoulders are also padded to allow for comfortable use of the Andra SR5 missile launcher and other heavy weapons.
The helmet contains built in radio and vision enhancement of nightvision, binoculars and protection against flashbangs. The helmets also have a weave of material that was supposed to help against psychic attacks, although its effectiveness is limited. Built into the gloves are fitted with RF ID chips that allow them to unlock doors in Armacham facilities without having to actually carry ID cards. The chips are connect to a heart monitor and if the glove removed from the wearer without properly turning it off, the chip shorts out to prevent its use by unauthorized users.

They are also trained to use fire arms to use when they run out of spells, or against magically resistant targets. They also carry a wand of burning hands to help supplement their combat.

If failed the save by less than 5, the spell has no effect, but can't use the energy. Failing more than 5, the spell takes normal effect. This doesn't work against area spells that are not centered on the Combat Mage directly.

A shimmering green arrow streaks toward a target within range and bursts in a spray of acid. Make a ranged spell attack against the target.

On a miss, the arrow splashes the target with acid for half as much of the initial damage and no damage at the end of its next turn.
