Exosuits

Post by halosammy »

Hey y’all at Slitherine.

I noticed on the website’s list of features that it made a distinction between power suited infantry and Marauders. The old Mongoose RPG/Miniatures take on Starship Troopers and its effort to integrate different interpretations of the Mobile Infantry comes across somewhat if I am reading that correctly. With all the options in mind, what is your take on the power armor question when it comes to adapting an IP as varied as ST?

That is what I gathered. The power suits from the animated series old or new, same concept. Then the marauders from the movie.

If you read the original novel, different types of armor are Canon (unless I'm mixing things up with "The Forever War').
Out of the top of my head some of the armors for humanoids are: the team lead with extra comms (=Command suit), recon (=Scout suit), heavy (=Marauder suit), regular (= the one we all know from the movies, federation body armor), etc.
