universe and fuck us up, because they're fucking daemons and are twisted monsters that mean nothing good for anyone. So there are risks of possession, or just strange Warp fuckery happening if their concentration lapses. (I actually have a list I can roll on to determine what kind of fuckery, and the potential for possession or worse) Otherwise this particular character won't have any subtle psychic powers, so no mind control or shit, his Psyker stuff is straight up destructive.

Admittedly it's hard to describe this stuff.

George, everything you said is acceptable, if that's the kind of character you wish to play as; and yes, their armors do grant additional strength, seeing as a single punch from a gauntlet that big would be like getting bit hit by a sledgehammer. I understand that Titan Troopers may seem overpowered at first, which is why I mentioned in their description they are sometimes considered light vehicles, but that's what they are: giant, genetically modified, super soldiers. Trust me, you will need everything you can get in the role-play! There will be a plethora of baddies of equal threat.

The main disadvantages of Titans is that they are so big, and so cannot really hide or sneak very well, so cannot sneak into a military base, for example. I even went as far as saying they cannot sprint (as fast or agile as someone who is without superheavy armour), which kinda contradicts what they do in-game, but the point is, is that they are not as mobile or agile as a typical soldier, especially in an environment that is heavily forested, uneven, hilly, or swampy. Since Titan Troopers are big, I am also willing to bet they can be easily targeted by lock-on rockets, for example.

Azi is going to judge because it's his roleplay and I'm throwing a whole other power system at him. Plus the whole point is hihm determining if this works or seems like too much, so judging is kind of what I want.

Inferi get the fuck on skype if you want some goddamn ideas and brainstorming.

That feel when you beat Pokemon Fire Red with Butterfree alone, then again with Beedrill alone. Fuck you, Gary Oak. And now Pikachu's coming to teach Ash how it's done.

Anyway, I'll be thinking of something to post when I get the time. I'm sorry that it's been so long but I've been really busy with work.

Fuckin' sweet. I got the whole not as agile thing, I had no doubts about that. They're the troops sent in when subtlety isn't a concern, ready to fuck shit up where necessary. No sprinting, fair enough, but I presume they can still run, just obviously not as fast as anyone not wearing superheavy armour.

Luckily you included the option of jump-packs, because I can see a how plethora of possibilities with those bursts of short, sudden flight. Such as launching into the air, soaring high and far, then coming down straight on top of an enemy, completely crushing them under the momentum and incredibly heavy super soldier in full armour.

Oh, and DROP PODS YEEEEAH.

Yes George, I hope you enjoy yourself! I also updated the description of the Titan Trooper, saying that their sneakiness and running is just not as fast as common soldiery. So yes, Titans can run and sprint, but what I meant is not as fast as those without such superheavy armour. And yes, I decided to have a slight limitation on the jetpacks, for the very reason you mentioned. Unless the jetpack has a massive fuel tank installed, I think it's fair to say flight distance would be short, I assume somewhere within a few kilometers or so, definitely not as effective as a real jet.

Welcome back Ancient, I've got a new scifi thread if you're interested.

That... Is a lot further than I expected. I was imagining them as jump-packs, for big, rocket-propelled leaps that bring them crashing down on top of their enemy or wherever it is they want to be instead of even short sustained flight. You know, like crossing a battlefield with a rocket-jump and crashing down amidst a group of enemies. I am Inferi.
