The Samurai: Giant Modified Full Environmental Body Armour |
By: Dustin M. Ramsey (DustinM@rifts-rpg.com)
Based on Concepts and Game Design by: Kevin Siembieda and
Palladium Books (http://www.palladiumbooks.com)
This suit of plate armour is designed to follow the motif of the ancient warriors of the Orient. Its construction from ultramodern composite materials allows it to be well armoured, yet not overly encumbering. It is often used by Cyclops, Rahu-Men, Borowitz, and other giant-sized R.C.C.'s that prize both mobility and and a high degree of protection.
