IR MASKING IR Masking is an improvement over the ECM Cape, in that it uses the 'Digital Chameleon' sensor web to measure the level of ambient IR, and selectively 'bleeds off' heat to match the wearer's heat signature to his/her surroundings. While activated, it makes the wearer undetectable to IR (IR sensors have no effect on visibility modifiers when shooting at the Scout). It disposes of excess heat with a coolant canister that will sustain two hours of useage during the day, or 1 hour at night.

CLIMBING EQUIPMENT Built into the Scout Armour are retractable climbing claws and toe-spikes, crampons, palm, sole and fingertip friction pads, Grapple Line: 20 metres high tension wire and built-in winch system and a detachable grapple and gauss-launcher powered by the suit's internal power supply. In addition, the claws and spikes can be used in unarmed combat or martial arts attacks;

• DMG: 2,
• PEN: 1
• AD : 1

OTHER BONUSES

• The Slipstream uses boron carbide micro-flywheels and an overpowered chassis with a 10,000 hour endurance to boost the wearer's speed in the same way that Silverback Armour (Karma p.131) does. The Scout gets a +3m/round bonus to his sprint movement rate, and the wearers hand-to-hand combat attacks have their PEN increased by 1.
• ElectroMagnetic Shielding: Hardened Circuitry and Heat reflective surfaces - useful against EM pulse, Microwave attacks and Electrical Surges.
• Internal Gyroscope: +2 on any rolls involving Balance.
• Jet Thrusters: Limited Flight at 15 metres per phase for up to 15 minutes before power source needs recharged. recharging takes 20 minutes.
• Optic Packages: Anti Dazzle, Targeting scope, Image Enhancement, HUDs, Thermographics (can see through walls at up to 10 metres). Micro-Optics: x10, x100, x1000 magnification.
• Audio Packages: Amplified hearing with level dampner and enhanced hearing, long range radio with 6 frequencies & scrambler. Radar detector (40% chance of fixing source).
• Olfactory 'Sniffer' System: Olfactory booster/Chemical Analyzer. Analyzes chemical traces and breaks them down into component parts.
• 'SpyWize" Computer package: A 'smart' computer package with skills in lip-reading and sound analysis as well as Visual recognition systems.
• Phone Splice: This acts as a cellphone transmitter/receiver.
• Satellite Link: High powered microwave communication system. This allows acccess to 'friendly' satellites giving battlefield data, intelligence and global positioning.
