I just came up with these at work, so some details need to be ironed out.Terran Marine Battle ArmorMedium Tactical Armor, +6 equipment bonus to AC (+2 untrained), +2 max dex bonus. -5 penalty to skill checks, 30 foot speed. Purchase DC - 23 Res (+2). Weight: 85lbsTerran Marine armor provides a +4 equipment bonus to Stegnth for purposes of carrying capacity only. The optical equipment built into the armor provides darkvision with a range of 60ft. C-14 "Impaler" Gauss RifleLarge Longarm2d10 x2 balisitc damage. Range 75ft, capable of Single and Autofire. Ammo comes in clips of 30 bullets. Purchase DC - 19 Res (+2). Weight 14lbsTerran Firebat Battle ArmorHeavy Tactical Armor, +8 equipment bonus to AC (+3 untrained), +1 max dex bonus. -7 penalty to skill checks, 20 foot speed.Purchase DC - 24 Res (+2) Weight: 105lbsFirebat Armor provides a +4 equipment bonus to Stregnth for purposes of carrying capacity only. The optical equipment built into the armor provides darkvision with a range of 60ft. Firebat armor provides the suit and its wearer with Fire resistance of 15."Perdition" flame throwersMedium Exotic Firearm2d6 fire damage. Range: special. Purchase DC - 17 Res (+2). Weight 30lbs each. Each flame thrower has enough ammo for 20 shots before it needs refilling.When fired, the Perdition flame throwers spit out a gout of flames that englufs an area of 5ft by 30ft long. Creatures caught in the area may make a reflex save DC 15 for half damage. Every subsequent round they take 1d6 fire damage until the flames are extinguished. Two of these may be wielded by a Firebat and fired simultaniously. He may fire them at the same area causing creatures to take double damage, and make 2 reflex saves, or at multiple areas. (edit) I toned down most of the equipment slightly, and decided on a more modular idea, in that you can add on more and more piecees of equipment, like scanning, increased range to the gun, masterwork your armor (up to +3?) etc. I like the idea that each Terran solider is issued a suit of armor for life that they customize. Modular componentsArmor UpgradesSensory Upgrade - This cheap but effective upgrade installs a built in scope, zoom lense and enhanced optical and audible sensors (+2 spot/listen) into the helmet and its HUD display. Power Servo - Upgrading your powersuits servo's allows you to increase your Stregnth score by +2, up to +6 for puposes of carryign capacity only.Armor toughening - By having the armorer upgrade your armor you can increase its equipment bonus to AC by up to +3, decrease the skill penalty by 3, or increase the max dex bonus by +3. Each upgrade is considered a +1 masterwork bonus (with a max of +3 total)Weapon UpgradesU-238 shells - These shells increase the range of your C-14 by 25 feet, up to 100 feet.Increased power - By having the armorer upgrade your weapon, you can add an equipment bonus to attack or defence totaling no more than +3 to your chosen weapon.More to come possibly, feel free to pick at my work as it was rather hasty.</blockquote>
