Tech-based Armor Augmentation
Tech-based Armor Augmentation
Tech-Based Armor Augmentation
Technology-based armor augmentations are special, generally electronic, digital, or mechanical enhancements to a set of armor to improve its function in some way, shape, or form. These can be as varied as tiny microchips and fiber optics laid through the material to transmit electronic signals, to strength-boosting machines taken from power armor models to improve strength exponentially.
Almost any set of armor can be enhanced technologically, though it does tend to follow that the armor of modern or futuristic civilizations will be better suited to tech upgrades. Classical civilizations tend to lean more towards magical enchantments. However, just as there are specific effects that can only be performed by enchantment, there are specific effects that can only be achieved by tech.
Tech-based augmentations, like enchantments, take up an armor's hard points, or Augmentation Slots. The "aug slots" on armor classes aren't very dynamic, but the heavier the armor the more space there is for enhancement. Unlike enchantments, though, a mix of bodily (read: statistic) augmentations and support augmentations is ideal, as the structure of the given armors can only hold so much of each.
Note: An augmentation of any type can only go on ONCE on the same armor.
Light Armor: 5 (2 Statistic, 3 Support)
Medium Armor: 8 (3 Statistic, 5 Support)
Heavy Armor: 12 (4 Statistic, 8 Support)
Enablers
There are two types of tech-based enhancements: mechanical and nanotechnological. Mechanical armor augmentations are those that require machines, large or small, to perform the enhancing. Nanotechnological (or "nanite") improvements require a very special type of armor enhancement to be added before the nanites themselves can be added, due to the fragile nature of the network the nanites maintain.
Exo-Suits are external bodysuits that are worn underneath armor to insulate the user and to provide bodily (read: statistic) enhancements from the armor to the user. Exo-Suits are the only way to receive direct statistic modification from an armor, and all others are considered "support" type augmentations.
In order to use nanite augmentations, a Bio-Suit must be installed in the armor. These are special weaves of fiber that allow for a constant cycle of data and energy from a body's electrical and thermal fields to be read by the swarm of nanomachines inside of the armor. In addition, to use nanite-based augmentations, a Nanite Infusion upgrade must be purchased. The Bio-Suit and Nanite Infusion mods both take up one slot apiece, but in exchange the Nanite Infusion upgrade can support a number of nanomachine programs depending on its level instead of each of them taking up a separate augmentation slot.
More on Exo- and Bio-Suits can be found in the posts below.
Augmenting Armor
Armor can be augmented either at purchase/creation or later on. A base armor is selected, whether it's light, medium, or heavy, and according to its number of hardpoints, is augmented by someone qualified, generally a vendor or a craftsman.
Example:
Flexible Steel Medium Armor
Price:
Physical Soak Bonus: 600
Magical Soak Bonus: 600
Augmentation Slots: 7
Crafting DC: 198
This armor has 7 slots to augment, and medium armor is only allowed 2 statistic improvements.
Say we want to make a UNSC MJOLNIR knockoff armor, with some of its functionality and a fraction of its protection with this somewhat low-quality armor.
Name: Exo-Skeleton V3 (Dex +6) (Str +6) (2 slots)
Name: Wayfinder Radar System
Name: Cybernetic Arm Prosthesis
Name: Hermes Leg Prosthesis
Name: Internal Shielding II
Name: Icarus Landing System
So, once completed, this armor will grant:
600 Physical Soak
600 Magical Soak
+6 Dexterity Bonus
+6 Strength Bonus
Radar
+150 Strength for lifting
+15 Jump
An energy field of 2000 HP that regenerates by 300 hp over the period of 3 rounds.
Damageless falls + a knockout/knockdown attack on a target below
__________________________________________________________________________
Example 2:
Flexible Steel-Lined Robe (Light Armor)
Price:
Physical Soak Bonus: 300
Magical Soak Bonus: 900
Augmentation Slots: 4
Crafting DC: 180
This suit of armor will be made for a lighter armor-wearing character wanting to use nanotehcnology. It has 4 Augmentation Slots, and only 1 can be used for Statistic enhancement.
Name: Exo-Skeleton V3 (+12 Dexterity)
Name: Bio Suit (Nanites)
Name: Nanite Infusion
-- Name: Nanite Regeneration Program
-- Name: Nanite Antibodies Program
Name: Glass-Shield Cloaking System
As you can see, the Nanite Infusion upgrade allows multiple nanite augmentations to be installed into that one slot. Nanites are thus able to fit more than one upgrade into a single slot, but they are expensive and rare. This armor will grant:
300 Physical Soak
900 Magical Soak
+12 Dexterity
Recovery of 20% of Max HP after battle conditions where a momentary rest period applies.)
20% resistance to toxins
MP-consuming invisibility

Exo-Suits
Exo-Suits (Statistic Augmentation)
More professionally known as "external skeletal systems" or "exoskeletons", Exo-Suits are skin-tight, flexing, synthetic weave bodysuits that fit along the curvature of the user's body to the finest detail. They are used underneath more formal battle armor in order to keep pressure on specific portions of the body, prevent blood loss, and most of all increase performance of bodily systems and specific organs. Pejoratively nicknamed "Skull Suits," Exo-Suits have a somewhat unusual, alien appearance when worn alone due to the unusual polymer-weave mix and the visibly glittering fiber optics running through most models.
Exo-Suits are generally not worn alone, as their damage prevention capability is negligible at best. They must be worn underneath other portions of armor, and occupy an Augmentation Slot when added to an armor. They are very costly to make and are almost never available upon the first day of purchase -- sometimes a week to a month can go by before it may be ready. Be warned: in some cases the body simply cannot handle the augmentations it pushes on the body. If you do not meet the requirement to wear the suits but still choose to do so, you do so at your own risk.
The following statistics may be boosted by Exoskeletons:
• Awareness
• Strength
• Dexterity
• Spirit (Note: Requires Nanite Stimulation Program augmentation on the same armor)
Caution: The pressure and functional utility of an exoskeleton is based directly on the strength of the body it is worn over; each level of augmentation is made for a different body type. If the wearer does not meet the physical requirements of a particular model, the exoskeleton will damage portions of the wearer's body due to the strain incurred by its use.
Note:: If multiple pieces of equipment have similar or identical bonuses, only the highest one will be counted. These are no longer cumulative.
Example: A dagger with +12 spirit, a armor with +12 spirit, and a shield with +14 spirit. Only the +14 Spirit bonus will count.
Exo-Suits can be crafted using Artisan: Tailoring or Engineering
While the chosen amount is permanent once made. You can adjust your distribution totals per mission.

Name: Shield Harmonics
Price: 55,125 gil
DC to Make: 20% of armor's original DC
Restrictions: Requires "Mass Effect Generators" research; requires an Internal Shielding component.
Description: Shield emitters are optimized to produce a strong reliable kinetic barrier that can be active for hours. Because of the potential for interference, it is nearly impossible to run two active emitters simultaneously. When one kinetic barrier is down, it's possible to activate a second, but this will generally interfere with the reactivation of the primary barrier. With precise timing, a short-term kinetic barrier can be made that seamlessly retracts when the primary barrier regenerates.
Effect: When a shield unit is exhausted, this additional augmentation to an armor automatically gives the user one "charge" of shielding that can be used while the rest recharges. If the user's shielding is overwhelmed before the full recharge is complete, the process begins again -- but the automatic recharge will only function once until a full recharge is complete.
Name: Nanocrystal Shield
Price: 95,625 gil
DC to Make: 75% of armor's original DC.
Restrictions: Requires "Mass Effect Generators" research; requires an "Internal Shielding" component.

Name: Talos Tactical Egression Pack
Manufacturer: Hahne-Kedar
Price: 40,575 gil
DC to Make: 40% of armor's original DC
Restrictions: Occupies 3 Support Augmentation Slots
Description: The T.E. Pack, or more colloquially known as the "jump pack," is a powerful Terminus System creation that uses compressed and controlled, short bursts of combusted fuel to propel a wearer over obstacles or up a typically unscalable incline. The advantage to the new, upgraded "Talos" model is that it has a secondary function that allows a user to jump upwards, then descend with exponential force. When primary function used, adds a +20 to Strength- and Dexterity-based Jump checks (does not add with Cybernetic Leg Prosthesis bonus), but requires a 3-round cooldown. When secondary function used, adds a +10 to Strength- and Dexterity-based Acrobatics checks, and upon landing, releases a concussive blast directly downwards that forms a shockwave outwards from the landing place, causing Knockdown to all enemies in up to 2 Areas; however, the secondary function prevents the T.E. Pack from being used at all for 10 rounds while it cools down.
Name: Phaethon Sustained Flight Pack
Manufacturer: Carrington Institute
Price: 95,625 gil
DC to Make: 50% of armor's original DC
Restrictions: Occupies 4 Support Augmentation Slots
Description: One of the Carrington Institute's proudest creations is the "jet pack," a controlled flight augmentation to standard armor. The Phaethon model is the product of years of improvement research, making it compact enough to fit (barely) even on lighter armor models but powerful enough to transport fully-armored shock troopers around a battlefield. When used, allows sustained, controllable flight at 2x running speed with a +10 to Flight (Running) checks, and +5 to Strength, Dexterity, and Endurance checks related to flight; however, can only be used for 10 consecutive actions/rounds before its fuel cells empty. When not in use, fuel cells replenish themselves at 1 cell per round.

Name: Glass-Shield Cloaking System
Manufacturer: Cerberus Skunkworks
Price: 21,150 gil
DC to Make: 40% of armor's original DC
Restrictions: Occupies 2 Support Augmentation Slots
Description: The GlassShield Cloaking System is a third generation stealth technology, composed of a grid of fine induction wires connected to a control system contained within the armor's torso region. The matrix is layered directly beneath the superficial layer of most armored materials; when activated, it generates a tuned, fixed-focus electromagnetic field that temporarily adjusts the frequency of EM radiation around the user. The net effect is a 'cloak of invisibility' which appears near-perfect. The effect can only sustain itself for 5 rounds before requiring another 5 round cool-down. Caution -- movement can still be heard!

Name: Shield Harmonics
Price: 55,125 gil
DC to Make: 20% of armor's original DC
Restrictions: Requires "Mass Effect Generators" research; requires an Internal Shielding component.
Description: Shield emitters are optimized to produce a strong reliable kinetic barrier that can be active for hours. Because of the potential for interference, it is nearly impossible to run two active emitters simultaneously. When one kinetic barrier is down, it's possible to activate a second, but this will generally interfere with the reactivation of the primary barrier. With precise timing, a short-term kinetic barrier can be made that seamlessly retracts when the primary barrier regenerates.
Effect: When a shield unit is exhausted, this additional augmentation to an armor automatically gives the user one "charge" of shielding that can be used while the rest recharges. If the user's shielding is overwhelmed before the full recharge is complete, the process begins again -- but the automatic recharge will only function once until a full recharge is complete.
Name: Nanocrystal Shield
Price: 95,625 gil
DC to Make: 75% of armor's original DC.
Restrictions: Requires "Mass Effect Generators" research; requires an "Internal Shielding" component.
Descriptions: Whereas most kinetic barriers and shields are fields of energy or electromagnetic force, a breakthrough in crystallizing technology has the ability to snap-create monofilament crystals that are interlaced and suspended in a shield's energy field, serving as a secondary layer of solid intervention between a user and his/her shields.
Effect: Increases a shield generator's strength by 50%. This can stack with other augmentations.

Name: Talos Tactical Egression Pack
Manufacturer: Hahne-Kedar
Price: 40,575 gil
DC to Make: 40% of armor's original DC
Restrictions: Occupies 3 Support Augmentation Slots
Description: The T.E. Pack, or more colloquially known as the "jump pack," is a powerful Terminus System creation that uses compressed and controlled, short bursts of combusted fuel to propel a wearer over obstacles or up a typically unscalable incline. The advantage to the new, upgraded "Talos" model is that it has a secondary function that allows a user to jump upwards, then descend with exponential force. When primary function used, adds a +20 to Strength- and Dexterity-based Jump checks (does not add with Cybernetic Leg Prosthesis bonus), but requires a 3-round cooldown. When secondary function used, adds a +10 to Strength- and Dexterity-based Acrobatics checks, and upon landing, releases a concussive blast directly downwards that forms a shockwave outwards from the landing place, causing Knockdown to all enemies in up to 2 Areas; however, the secondary function prevents the T.E. Pack from being used at all for 10 rounds while it cools down.
Name: Phaethon Sustained Flight Pack
Manufacturer: Carrington Institute
Price: 95,625 gil
DC to Make: 50% of armor's original DC
Restrictions: Occupies 4 Support Augmentation Slots
Description: One of the Carrington Institute's proudest creations is the "jet pack," a controlled flight augmentation to standard armor. The Phaethon model is the product of years of improvement research, making it compact enough to fit (barely) even on lighter armor models but powerful enough to transport fully-armored shock troopers around a battlefield. When used, allows sustained, controllable flight at 2x running speed with a +10 to Flight (Running) checks, and +5 to Strength, Dexterity, and Endurance checks related to flight; however, can only be used for 10 consecutive actions/rounds before its fuel cells empty. When not in use, fuel cells replenish themselves at 1 cell per round.
