STEPHEN HAWKING runs around and enjoys the feeling of having working legs.

((So at the risk of being an OOC tinker post I was working up an idea of what STEPHEN HAWKING's eventual battlesuit would come with.
I forget exactly what all it comes standard with, but I know its supposed to have that shock system and some explodey thing or something? I was thinking/wondering if I could get a customized one without those to save some tokens for other stuff. I also know the suit comes standard with 2 kinetic amps for the fists, and I was thinking of upping that to four total, 2 for the fists and 1 for the bottom of each foot.

Actually that's something else I need to ask about, because I was thinking about my little idea of a kinetic amp fueled "super-jump" but then I remembered that the amps aren't supposed to work on reaction forces I.E. the force that would launch you back off the ground.
So is it possible to get special order amps that DO amplify reaction force? For teh supa jumps. Because then I could strip off the....ok I THINK battlesuits come standard with flight, but I'm not really sure. But anyway I could then just use the supa jumps and maybe keep some small leg mounted maneuvering thrusters to not go splat after the jumps.

Another key feature of the "Hawk Suit" is a central battery for all those damned kinetic amps, as I get the feeling it would be a pain to keep track of and replace each one when the battery gets low.

Lastly I would of course want a monoatomic shuriken launcher for each wrist, and would have a nice big hawk design painted across the chest, with the wingspan extending out across the arms.))

((Hm...kinetic-amp super-jumping...you might need to bootstrap your way up, but it's probably possible.))

((Do some research on battlesuits by searching for 'battlesuit' in the on-ship thread and the main mission thread.

A good starting point might be this, which details the stuff that is built into Gilgamesh, and this, general summary of battlesuit features. The difference between Gilgamesh and a regular one is that a standard has no cameyes (though it has heat vision and zoom), no rocket pack, and double the armor. And a battlesuit already has a 'high jump' ability, check its armory entry for more info.
Oh, and you'll have to think of a cool name yourself too    ))

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Or a silly name.))

((The Melee MCS would be pretty much all that, scaled down to personal exoskeleton size. No special defense features bar extra armoring and "melee shields" that, if you're familiar with a mech called Giganscudo, make pretty good weapons when powered by hydraulics. Plus they have kin-amps. Kinetic-amp "high jump" functionality also exists, as far as I recall, and is part of that suit design as well.

The Melee MCS would still have a central tesla grid for all-round defense though. It's too useful not to have.

Of course, the melee MCS would have a cost in excess of that of a battlesuit, but, eh. ))

((I was wondering of making a suit that works like a slingshot, firing the user at Mach 2 towards anything they want gone, if the suit had any kinetic amps, the user would be like hulk fired from a cannon, of course there is the problem of the g force and the eventuall energy release of hitting something, but that's just nitpicking there))

((Well my idea of what STEPHEN HAWKING would do with this was something along the lines of "jump across Grand Canyon toward mooks on the other side, fire shurikens at two mooks while flipping and land in a dropkick against their leader"
Pretty unrealistic I know, but still...AWESOME.))

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

(( I would also like to construct a suit that's like the MK 3 suit, it would basically be just the suits exoskeleton with a massive battery on the back, if I was able to attach some electric cords that could connect to any weapon, the result is you got a massive arsenal of almost unlimited laser ammo as long as the suit had charge, I would also be able to remove all the batteries on the weapons, making them lightweight, I would have to connect a custom wire connector to all of said weapons though.))

((Yeah. Where would you get the cannon?))

((About the amp/manip discussion: while it is true that the microwave is good enough for indiscriminate murder, that doesn't mean the other amps don't have a use either. They are great at providing support for your team (e.g. sending rpg round back at their owner).
And GWG, while you could probably indeed use a magnetic amp to make stuff levitate/fly, remember that using it like that would require enormous brainpower and be hard to pull of roll-wise (aka anything but perfect 5 would end in a very dead frog). Using the matter manipulator makes doing that stuff is less taxing on your poor brain. Likewise, stopping a bunch of shrapnel of killing your team members with the matter/vector amp would be very hard because it's a large amount of stuff going every fast, whereas with the magnetic amp you can simply create a very strong magnetic field pointing down to force them all down at once.))

((Or Miya's latest... "tour de force". Granted, that's a universal manipulator, but still.))

((You know, once I get that decomp I think it'll be lot's of !FUN! figuring out what the possibilities and combinations are with that thing. Especially because there are so many cool combos we could think of. Imagine decreasing the gravity on the gangway to zero, then lightly magnetizing the floor and the soles of our boots, and bingo, we can still move around normally while any enemy entering gets a crash course in zero-G bullet dodging. Or, in the battle of Hexbarax, create a donut-shaped area of crushingly high gravity, with a HMRC squad in the middle to cut down altered that make it through.
Or hell, why not give something a large amount of upward speed (vector amp) while decreasing its gravity to zero (like a grav shute does), and voila, we can send enemies/megaton bombs set to blow off into space!
Or, if the the grav amp is capable of creating 'reverse' gravity (aka matter will repulse other matter instead of attract), combining that with the 'shockwave' thing Miya just used... It'd be a wave that makes everything that it comes into contact with explode violently by making its own atoms hate each other... Beautiful destruction.

The Melee MCS would still have a central tesla grid for all-round defense though. It's too useful not to have.

((Care to elaborate? I think I know what you're planning to do, but not sure if we're on the same page.))

((About the tesla grid? The suit itself, or rather the Melee kit, is highly conductive armor, under which is heavy insulation. Using the same principle as the Tesla Arc, which is basically "RAW VOLTAGE", several key areas on the armor act as focus points and allow electricity to jump to anything and everything nearby. It's very much not a teammate-friendly defense mechanism. ))

((Screw using gravity, gravity is a much weaker force than electromagnetism (I would think the magnetic manipulator/amp would be more accurately called the electromagnetic manipulator/amp, since there is no distinct magnetic phenomena). A negative electromagnetic wave would cleanly slice through absolutely anything. One that nullifies electromagnetism would have about the same effect as that gravitic wave of yours, but much more powerful (One coulomb worth of electrons will generate an astounding 4.2E42 times more force through electromagnetism than gravity. Of course, electrons have a very high ratio of charge to mass so you might be tempted to call that an anomaly, but the ratio is huge for protons too: 1.2E36).

And if you were to use one to reverse electromagnetism in an area, turn electrons positive and protons negative... well, you should know what that is.))
