PA power armor?
« on: 09 June 2014, 02:52:52 PM »
I want to include in one of my leagues two weird wars battle suits/power armors, how I can create it with the vehicles rules? I was thinking of use a scout walker with light armor, the miniature of the power armor have the head of the pilot visible, so I could consider the "walker" open. The powe armor have not guns, just using the same weapons of the driver (a normal machine gun). The walkers could brawl as usual? The battle suit is humanoid, have two legs and two arms with hands. Thanks.

There are some DUST mechs that might work. There are some Russian battle suits that show a visible human head too.

Yes, you could use the rules for one-man scout walker for a small battle suit.

If you make the vehicle 'Open', then the driver may brawl normally. Otherwise, a walker may not normally brawl unless you attach a 'Battering Arm' modification.

It looks like you are on the right track!  ;)



Another option I've seen work quite nicely for power armor is to simply give the character the 'Big' ability. It just depends on what size/type of battle suit you are going for.

Thanks, I should have two miniatures, one with the power armor and the other without (when and if the vehicles is destroyed and the pilot survive).
