((Question, in the future, if I stick with armor training like I am, what traits can I get? Also, will being able to equip armor and weapons that fast matter?))

Unless you want to walk around in your suit all the time it can be very useful.  Also you got a roll of about 67 or something, not enough to learn about how the armor works which would be more specific than the armor drills you're currently doing, so you learned how to put armor on fast.  Think of it as an anti-ambush trait.

Also maxicaxi, Marksmanship is not offered in week one, P.T. or Armor Drills.

Phantom, piloting is not offered either, P.T. or Armor Drills.  ((The reason why I allowed Resocs to choose any one training subject is they get the hugely disadvantageous trait "Resocialized" which will make it much harder to leave the Dominion military))

Week 1:
John focuses on physical training, after all, that fancy CMC power suit will not save you in every scenario.

Week 2:
John works on his C14 Gauss Rifle skills, taking apart, firing without his CMC, the whole deal, trying to become an expert with the thing.

Better?

((So, if I keep at it, I may get a lucky roll, and 'figure out' how the armor works? If that happens, would modifications be possible?))

Focus on armor training, preferably how the suit works moreso than simply how to get in and out quickly.

You too choose to focus on armor drills.  The specifics of suit modification still allude you, but you are fast at equipping and unequipping your suit.  (Trait gain:  Quick Equip)  ((You got a 67 too, sorry.  I have to be fair))

Week 1:
John focuses on physical training, after all, that fancy CMC power suit will not save you in every scenario.

Week 2:
John works on his C14 Gauss Rifle skills, taking apart, firing without his CMC, the whole deal, trying to become an expert with the thing.

Week 1:

You focus on physical training.  In particular strength training.  (Trait Gain:  Strong)

Week 2:

PAT results:  You have little to no psionic potential.

You elect to focus on the weapon drills this week, unfortunately you seem to not have much natural aptitude for the weapon.

((I'm going to go explain how I decide traits in the first post now, so nobody can say I'm unfair with my distribution of traits.  And yes, modifications beyond the superficial would be possible then, assuming you have the materials and tools necessary.))

D'oh, why the hell did I say that? I'm gonna get resoc'd.

((General Rules updated to explain traits, I'm probably going to cap those at some point too, don't want a bunch of super unkillable soldiers walking around))

For week 2, I'll take Armor Drills.

PAT Results:  While you might have some Psionic Potential, it is not nearly high enough to be utilized in any practical sense.

Your Armor Drills go fairly well.  You might not be the fastest at getting in and out of your armor, but you know how the CMC-armor works.  (+3 Defense in CMC-armor)

OOC question: Do officers have special armor, identifying symbols, communications equipment, or other fancy armor-related things?

I'm doing armor drills.

You are the master of your own armor.  You feel as though you are qualified to modify your armor with the knowledge you gained during armor drills.  (trait gain, Armor Modification, you can modify your armor with the appropriate materials and tools.)
