Copyright (c) 1996 by Jon Glenn An inspiration from GURPS:Robots led to this Vehicles design. This suit looks a lot like the picture on page 49 of G:Robots. The head on mine is more angular, almost like a knight's helmet, and the hands are better designed for using mecha-rifles for heavy firepower. The Templar Land Battlesuit, as the name implies, is optimized for planet-side operations. Primary life support is in the form of a CBR filter system, with a 6 hour supply of bottled air for amphibious infiltration and for surviving napalm strikes. The flight system uses efficent fusion air-rams, that are useless for thrust in space. However, the air-rams provide enough power for all the suit's systems, except for the weapons. Two r-E cells take care of that, providing over 200 shots each for the flamer, and powering the gauss-gatling for all 80000 rounds of ammo. The Templar's biphase-carbide armor is proof against the unit's built-in weapons, useful if one of your buddies is hit with a tangler or swarmed by less protected troops.
