And THAT'S what's on the top of page 1000/500.

[Comrade P.]

you Amerikanski's

Your accusations of me being American are as heinous as they are wounding, comrade.

Never said that was you. Newcomers might be. The cause was there, I made an assumption.
Please don't be upset.


If PW was GMing real life.
We need to remake that, ER-style.

A is for Altered, when things first went south
B is for Bombs people shoved up their mouths

Was just kidding, no worries.

Never before had Radio Controlled been so close to uncovering.

Spoiler: I see the reference that you draw. (click to show/hide)

Good ol' Stierlitz.

J is for Jump-points through which you may never come out
K is for Klutz, for your teammates watch out

Alternatively:
J is for the Junk you'll be sent to collect
K is for Kiloton shells that you failed to respect

[NJW2000]

Extremely of interest and relevant.

Also, srsly?

For IVAN, who will fuck your shit.

[Aigre Excalibur]

Can I submit tinker designs or wiki edition proposals while on mission? ooc, I'm working on some stuff in my head.

I'm just playing with ideas for simple low-end gear for nub survivability.

[Nunzillor]

Like what?  I'd be interested in that.

[renegadelobster]

...I would as well, assuming I survive this mission

PffffHAHAHAHA

A working "Eddie" suit, named after the junk Eddie Vazquez tried to wear before he got snuffed by a gauss fragment.
 The design is based on good old flak armor, designed to keep a soldier alive and protected from Shrapnel.

Our ARM flak suit is made from re-casted scrap metal plates woven into heavy Fabrics. The full armor package includes a 10kg jacket over the torso and arms, and another 10kg  for thigh and shin guards that protect the entire legs.

An optional 10kg solid cast metal mantlet of about an inch in thickness can go over the front chest as well, if the soldier wishes to carry that weight.

Flak armor should reliably protect against most gunpowder weapons, and is designed specifically to keep a soft squishy greenhorn alive against shrapnel and assorted blast effects (within reason). It won't take a direct hit from a military gauss round, but it could possibly make a difference between life and death in such cases. It could also make a difference in the degree of damage inflicted to the squishy soldier underneath when he gets shot. It adds that much resistance and ablative capability against laser rifles as well, but shouldn't be expected to take anything more than glancing sweeps.

Flak armor is made from reliable, cheap, passive, easily available materials that cost next to nothing to put together.

The other thing I'd like to do is upgrade or redefine the Defender Longcoat and Ablative Armour. Perhaps a hexsand composite could go into our ablative armor, and a softer version that still ablates well under wnergy weapon fire could be made into overcoats. I don't think the precedence for our existing longcoats stopping military gauss rounds is good enough, and an ablative hexcoat could perform better under fire of multiple types.

Ablative armors should be tested to the point where they can be proven to fail gracefully against military grade small arms without endangering the squishy guy wearing it. I believe composites are the future of our medium tier armor as they could provide both the heat resistance and hardness to withstand both energy and kinetic weapons of the modern battlefield.

That's the sales pitch.
