*Updated* The CVR type Body Armor: This body armor is very flexible and
can be custom tailored to fit anyone within the REF/Sentinel forces. Below are
the descriptions of the different CVR Body Armors.
It is standard item issued to all Cyclone Veritech riders and Alpha pilots. In
addition to its mega-damage protection and self- contained environmental
capabilities (it's just like a spacesuit when the helmet is sealed,) the body
armor is an integral part of the cyclone veritech system. The
body armor is designed with special connectors and braces where the cyclone
attaches itself to its battloid operator. Without the body armor, the
VR-motorcycle can not convert into battloid mode. That means a pilot with no
CVR-3 body armor can not use the battloid aspect of the mecha until he/she finds
some CVR body armor. Southern Cross or old RDF armor can not be substituted.
Until the CVR body armor is obtained, the character can only use the cyclone
as a souped-up combat motorcycle. This body armor has inter-locking connections
to use the cyclone, without any type of armor the cyclone would crush and kill
the pilot during the transformation sequence.
Despite stylistic differences, all of the CVR-Body Armors have the same basic
properties:
-
Laser resistant ceramics (lasers do 1/2 damage).
-
Complete Environmental Battle Armor (E.B.A.) suitable for use in space and other
hostile environments.
-
Computer controlled life support system.
-
Internal cooling and temperature control. Humidifier.
-
Gas filtering and artificial circulation.
-
Independent oxygen supply and purge system which automatically engages in low
oxygen or polluted environments. Eight hour oxygen supply, maximum.
-
Insulated, high temperature resistant weave of nylon, synthetic, fibers, and
metal mesh.
-
Fire resistant up to 300 degrees centigrade. Normal fires do no damage, but
plasma and nuclear fires have full effect.
-
Radiation shielded. Helmet with removable face plate.
-
Directional, short-range radio built into the helmet. Range is 8 miles.
-
Tinted Helmet Visor. The pilot can tint the visor or it will tint itself if
there is an explosion or intense bright light (such as sunlight).
-
Utility belt/holster can hold up to 16 full stock gallant clips.
CVR-1 Body Armor Was designed for the technicians.
This lighter weight body armor would allow these people to do there sensitive
tasks. These armors were not designed for cyclone riders, therefore this body
armor is incompatible with the cyclone. Even though these were designed on the
various bases in space, they were not actually used until April 2042.
M.D.C. by Location:
Head -- 20
Face Plate -- 20
Arms (2) -- 15 each
Hands (2) -- 5 each
Legs (2) -- 35 each
Main Body (Chest & Trunk) -- 25
Depleting the MDC of any of these areas will expose the S.D.C. Pilot and/or
limbs. At this point either the pilot will die or be severely injured.
Weight: 8 pounds. Excellent mobility, no prowl penalty. Black
Market Cost: 25,000 credits (on Earth).
NOTE: This body armor is a lighter armor and not designed for the
cyclone. |
