Virtually identical to Space Marine power armor (More can be read below), these suits of armor are scaled down to fit regular humans (notice that this is the reverse of what it would have been 10,000 years ago). And topping it off since Rico was a non-com working on the flank, he was issued a rocket launcher with four low-yield nuclear rockets.īecause 40k has a huge hard on for Space Marines, and because no super soldier worth his genetic enhancements will go into battle without super armaments, 40k has developed nearly as large a hard on for power armor. For this missions he dropped into battle with: a rifle, a heavy flamer, a handheld flamer, an automatic grenade launcher (called a Y-rack) and multiple reloads, conventional thrown grenades, incendiary micro grenades (called firepills), and one psy-ops grenade (a talking timebomb). Their objective was to smash and run, inflicting as much damage as possible but avoiding engagement with defense forces. So how many weapons we looking at here? Well, in the first chapter of the book, Rico is participating in a quick raid on an alien city. Command suits in comm range of each other can compare their DR nav data to determine relative position without any battlefield nav aids. Command: Scout suit with more comm gear and gyros for inertial dead reckoning navigation.Much more mobile than the standard model. Scout: Lean on weapons, heavy on jump fuel.Basic equipment includes radar and multi-spectrum vision aids. Can carry more weapons than vintage Doomguy. Heinlein never discusses pauldrons, but the Space Marines certainly take after the Mobile Infantry's other aspects.The dudes from the book not the movie. In other words, it's much like Crisis battlesuits with less weeaboo and more humanity fuck yeah inside. Their primary purpose is not to destroy indiscriminately (though they certainly can), but to 'make war as personal as a punch on the nose' - to drop in and destroy with precision, in order to break the enemy in exactly the right way. The 'Marauder' suit is bulky, with integrated thrusters and heavy weapons (including nuclear weapons and heavy explosives, carried as easily as a human soldier carries grenades). Like so many military science-fiction concepts, the modern idea of powered armor dates back to the Mobile Infantry of Heinlein's Starship Troopers. 20.1 Praetor Suit (aka Doom Guy's armor).2.8.5 Blightlord Pattern Terminator Armour.2.8.4 Scarab Occult Pattern Terminator Armour.2.8.3 Chaos Indomitus Pattern Terminator Armour.2.8.2 Chaos Tartaros Pattern Terminator Armour.2.8.1 Chaos Cataphractii Pattern Terminator Armour.2.4.8 Allarus Pattern Terminator Armour.2.4.7 Aquilon Pattern Terminator Armour.2.4.5 Saturnine Pattern Terminator Armour.2.4.3 Indomitus Pattern Terminator Armour.2.4.2 Tartaros Pattern Terminator Armour.2.4.1 Cataphractii Pattern Terminator Armour.2.3.7 Mark VII: Aquila/Imperator Armour.
