Tahsir Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 (edited) all powered armor suits is make your troops bigger, slower, easier to hit targets. Edited September 10, 2009 by Tahsir Re Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kevz Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Yeah sure but my regular soldiers without armor suits will kick their $@!. That is basically how it works. Of course the suits I had in mind are only power suits by general term, really I would call them strength suits as I would only have a very small amount for a heavy infantry company of about 100 men and the suits don't provide much more protection against small arms. Instead they provide extra strength and stability to allow them to fire things like chain guns and rocket launchers on the move and as a single soldier.

J Andres Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I'm wondering. Why have we never defined a time for CNRP? Some people do 1 month=1 year, some do 3 months=1 year. We can't accurately record years and lives either, without actual years. Shouldn't we decide on a timescale, so we can actually accurately RP the time it takes to build something? because not everyone agrees on everything. Be reasonable and nothing matters. The only reason why I have a defined calendar system, is because i need i way for my politicians to age. See calendar system in sig for reference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerreyRough Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 (edited) If your looking at Shadow's troop RP'ing in Diberia, the men in suits are his shock troops, not his entire army. His regular troops have some armor for protection, but not much. Edited September 11, 2009 by JerreyRough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Executive Minister Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 When I can I'm going to RP my Super-Heavy Infantry... ie, Starcraft I marines... nothing fancy, and such infantry will be treated like equipment, not soldiers, like the hunters from halo... Of course, I'll only be RPing them when I finally reach the 1st world... any mention of them now would be in reference to the times before my nation's technological dark age.

V The King Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 In before those "shock troops" expand into whole divisions and armies. owell, I guess people will solve the problem by giving their troops a portable rail gun or a massive laser canon.

I'd reckon the suit would tear your body apart if there was supreme structural integrity loss... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Seb Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 What happens when the suit is disabled and the person is trapped inside? I'll stick with conventional soldiers for now, thanks. There are a lot of downsides to powered armor suits. If you want them, go for it. Just expect them to get out maneuvered, out-numbered and be high-caliber weapon magnets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king of cochin Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 A powered suit could surely be neutralized by an anti- material rifle or an EMP system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Il Terra Di Agea Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 I think that may be referring to getting crashed, the suit getting much smaller and trapping the user inside, unable to be removed. That's why a good old fashioned Light Mech is the way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markus Wilding Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Alright, since I know I'm gonna have to reroll (like my war against Slavorussia, no way in hell I can come out of this alive) I have a question regarding nation names: If I kept the ruler alive, and rerolled, I know I can use the character again, but can I use the nation name again?
