IMPERIAL ASSAULT CORPS ARMOR
This armor is the standard issue piece of equipment given to the Imperial Assault Corps. Responsible for special operations and shock-and-awe operations, their armor is designed in such a way as to be lightweight while still providing critical protection. Its functionality is geared toward their quick movement approach and is higher end than the more mass-produced armor used by the Imperial Defense Force.
The plates are made of thin duraplast layered over an environmental suit that allows combatants to fight in a variety of situations. It can be painted to provide camouflage in a variety of environments. It comes standard with a belt and numerous pouches for storage of important equipment as well as a comlink built into the helmet.
LEGALITY
This armor is property of the Imperial Military. Usage by those who are not members of the Imperial Military is illegal and will be punished accordingly.
INTENT
This is to flesh out the armor used by one of the branches of the Imperial Army. It is designed to provide a base set of armor for those wishing to serve within that branch.

Type and Coverage
Type: Medium Armor
Coverage:
- Head: Full head duraplast helmet
- Torso: Duraplast chest piece
- Back: Duraplast piece covering the upper and mid back
- Upper Arms: Describe Duraplast shoulder and bicep piece
- Lower Arms: Duraplast bracers covering the forearms and tops of the hands
Functions
Function 1: Filter
- Filters are bulky attachments to a helmet, or function as part of a mask, that filter out environmental contaminants such as smoke or most toxins. They are susceptible to caustic substances and damage.
- While it is not rated for extended exposure to extreme hazards, this body suit (when combined with an enclosed helmet) can protect the wearers body from the effects of environmental and weaponized toxins and similar hazards for up to 5 posting rounds.
- Scout HUD - Contains a 4x magnifier and Compass.
- Thermal undersuits wick away or reflect thermal energy for brief periods of time. They are not nearly as effective as a suit that firefighters would wear. Most commonly used to protect soldiers from flamethrower weapons or short bursts of extreme heat or cold, and are only good for 1-2 posts of exposure depending on intensity. They are useless against blasters.
- Most often in the form of a heavy cape, skirt, or underlay beneath armor, armor weave provides some protection against the penetrating effects of shrapnel from explosives and other unpowered high velocity impacts, with only a small amount of bleed through damage (bruising or very minor wounds). It offers no protection against kinetic impact or energy, vibroweapons, or similar "powered" weapons. Having more than one accessory (example: Cape + underweave) provides no additional effect.
