@Aoshi: You can try lining the barrel with Chem-Off. It won't explode, and might be cheaper.

We should give all our deathtubes a standardized rail system as part of the armory cleanup.

More stuff ready for Council!

Spoiler: Heavy Armoured Exoskeleton (click to show/hide)

Take the Heavy Exoskeleton and give it heavy armour. It has one layer of hex-composite over the torso and helmet to protect from heavy weapons, and one layer of battlesuit plate over the entire body to protect from small arms. The closest a human can get to a walking tank and still fit comfortably through doors. As with most heavy armours, the joints are rather vulnerable.

Recommended price: 12 tokens (ideal) to 14 tokens (extreme).

Spoiler: Gungnir Electrolaser Kit MK2 (click to show/hide)

When you shoot a laser, it turns the air to plasma. This plasma conducts electricity. So when you shoot a laser through electricity, it turns into a lightning gun.

This is a kit that consists of a generator and second trigger that mount underbarrel, and a spark gap that mounts in front of the barrel. There's a dial on the side that controls power. At full power it delivers the same shock as a Tesla Saber, but requires a full turn to recharge.

This kit can be mounted on any laser weapon. syvarris thinks it should take a handi roll to attach, I disagree.

Effect:
In atmosphere: Your laser now shoots lightning. It fries any uninsulated electronics you shoot, and it fries any uninsulated people you shoot. Really good against people in vehicles or other ungrounded metal boxes, or in water. Might have a chance to arc to multiple people or electrocute them with a near miss. Can also be used as a taser.
In vaccuum: You have a taser bayonet.
In water: You die.

Recommended price: 3 tokens.

Other finished designs, just keeping them in one post.

Spoiler: Heavy exoskeleton (click to show/hide)

An upgraded exoskeleton that's slightly bulkier and about twice as strong, the exact same strength as a synthflesh body in fact. It lets you wield even heavier weapons and use even more brute force. It doesn't have any real armour though.

Recommended price: 7-8 tokens.

Spoiler: Dragoncoat (click to show/hide)

A stylish hooded trenchcoat covered in black scales. The coat is made from the same reactive carbon nanofiber weave as a Civic Defender's Longcoat and the scales are made from laser-resistant ceramic hexsand. It will protect you from energy weapons up to a laser rifle, and it will protect you from kinetic weapons up to a gauss rifle but it won't last many hits against those. It has a hood to protect your head.

This is a flexible ultralight armour intended mainly for layering over other armours without increasing encumbrance. You can have regeneration and slightly better defense for the same price with a Sharksuit.

Recommended price: 3 tokens

EDIT:
Brain Preservation Suit Upgrade
I was looking through the armory and found this, designed by the Armory Master:

Brain Box.
Description: A rather large machine designed to hold a severed head and keep it preserved and ready for reanimation. Requires head to be hooked up to feed of chemicals and submerged in biogel. Machine is very heavy and large, technically portable but also fairly fragile.

Now we have no idea how big is "rather large", and we have no idea how much it costs.

I want to try miniaturizing it using our modern ARM technology, and building it into a suit. Not as a full suit, but as a replacement helmet/backpack thing to add to MK/MCP suits.

Effect: You don't lose stat points on tempdeath, at least not from regular tempdeath. Things like brain melting soundwaves will still cause stat loss.
Your brain won't go bad and become permadead after a few hours.

Guys, remember that Sy is here to handle making machines, not to answer questions about the nature of materials or how weapons work. For those things you can either PM me personally or just ask sy and he'll give me a list of shit he doesn't know and that will get answered (eventually).

[renegadelobster]

Would it be possible to make something like the CASIE implant from Deus Ex:HR? It uses pheromones or some other handwavey thing to help influence people. Say, two versions, one for squishy people, that uses their body to slowly replenish its "charges" and another for robutts that can only be refilled on ship. Something to help us that may or may not of dumped CHA to -2 be gooder with talkings at people. Say it has 2 or 3 charges before it must be refilled

[Egan_BW]

I don't think that equipment should be able to make up for lacking in stats. Something to help Cha-builds be better would be good, though.

[renegadelobster]

That works too. Was just a random thought that popped into my head. Maybe make it so it's easier to read and then influence people? Or make it easier to influence entire crowds.

[Xantalos]

Maybe a defensive thing that amplifies the user's sex appeal to the point where people have to roll willpower against your charisma to attack you?

I definitely want that for Charles!

[Xantalos]

Yeah, you could say it was based off of the distracting ball thing. 
...
I'm gonna make it formal so I get money if anyone buys it.

Sex Appeal Enhancer

Based off of the distraction ball thing, this piece of equipment (which may or may not be a bunch of really small baubles superglued to the user's genitals) raises the user's sex appeal to the point where it forces an attacker to roll willpower vs the user's charisma to actually attack him. This only applies to those who actually notice the device, of course.

Anyone wanna help me make this feasible?

And then see what happens when a person with -2 cha wears it?

Its called sticking the bauble in the pill machine.

if they fail the roll they want to own you, not kill you.

Perfect for PvP.

you know I was gonna make a joke about an alternative method to make this...
But its rather sexist and involves something thats probably a considered A criminal offense in the more civilised parts of the world.

[DoctorMcTaalik]

+1 to testicle baubles.

...

I'm not really sure how force fields work in ER, to be honest, and there's not much that I can find on the wiki about them. How much would forcefield variants of the Monosaws cost, and technologically, what would that entail?

Ah, so I guess we'll change the ARMy men uniform into something that includes kilts?

[Ozarck]

problem with the testicaubles: every time you took a piss, you'd run the risk of getting lost in your own genitals.

Problem with making it a pill: you have to roll will against a constant autosexual desire. All of Elizas' sexual drive turned inward.
