The NEMPD, after a review of Kerradi Industrial Cybernetics' Model XXXXIV "Landmate" Powered Battle Armor, is seeking nations willing to perform more rigorous multi-environment combat testing. In exchange for use of the design, we ask you send your findings on the design's capabilities.

New Aranamorian Alliance would like to particapate in this study, as we have many sprawling different landscapes on our planets

We would like to purchase 8 of them we'll see how their performance is.

Padmasa can not only give it a test but see how it compares to our own Powered Armour. Rest assured we can put it through many many enviroments and will be happy to see how many shots it takes for it to die...

Do you think I want to see these things romping around the Balkans in ethnic purges?

Denied.

It doesn't look very comfortable to walk in (those reverse jointed legs aren't really fit for human anatomy.)

What kind of specs? We have some more, but it'd take higher clearance.

Oh, and if you're wondering what kind of powerplant this runs on, it's a Hydrogen Fuel Cell Engine, good for about 5 Days of combat manuvers.

The balkans uhh... know were not going to attack muslims or fight in big political fighting....errr yeah oh no they are just for security.well maybe just a little fighting.

OOC-It uses the Shirow Masamune "Landmate" design philosphy. You'll notice that the upper legs are very bulky, because the operator's legs are contained in there, and a computer reads the motions into a sort of "Walk By Wire" system. Same thing goes for the arms, but the operator's arms are in armored gauntlets extending from the chest.

you can testt them in the deepest jungles of illior if you want where you may be attacked by rebels but its still good combat testing, also we would like 3 to test them in mountainous conditions, swampy, desert, etc.

Yeah, that's what I was wondering about, well that and how long of an internal oxygen supply it had. I assume the suit is sealed, and thus able to be used in space.

Bullshit. You're Serb terrorists, don't even try.

Denied.

We will send your request along with a team of engineers and instructors.

Padmasa-It's sealed, with a 5-Day oxygen supply. Some land versions are equipped with NBC Air "Scrubbers" and filters.

No. No I don't want it. I'd rather be in one of these than some anachronistic Wh40k battle armor.

WH 40K?


New Empire:

5 days? Wow! Well actually the suit is rather large, and it probably could contain enough. Excellent, We'll need at least 5 for combat trials, and at least 9 for enviormental and space tests.

If these units prove effective, some of the nations within the New Anamorian Alliance will be intrested in mass orders of these units

Padmasa:
It was designed to be adapted to serve our Marine Lunar Expeditionary Force constructing a base at the Copernicus crater, so it does hold quite a lot of oxygen, although versions with NBC filters replace that space with extra fuel cells for the hardpoints and railgun.

Excellent. I never designed a suit for such purposes, though I do have disposable tanks for prolonged combat... The two hour internal supply on my suits is usually enough.

This isn't a store. It's not like a Ford Dealership where you walk in and look at all the models. Had this been a showroom, your men would have been gunned down.

Padmasa:
If you wish, you may purchase some for evaluation.
