Combat Suits

Origins
The Combat Suit is a small, medium or large mechanical compliment issued to humans and or beings for use in heavy combat or surprise assults. They're bulky, heavily armed and armoured cases of power armour.

The first Combat Suit was built by The Empire months before the start of the War. It was used by The Red Emperor during the War, and proved highly effective against the Human weapons as both a war machine and a psychological weapon. During and after the War, the design was reworked to fix certain flaws, and new designs sprouted, in order to equip certain elite infantry units with this suit. The most famous Combat Suit is the Cloak of Red, which is also the most powerful and most advanced suit ever built.

Known Models
Overral, 3 models have been designed, although only 1 is mass produced.


 * Cloak of Red - The Emperor's Personal Combat Suit, modified with powerful weapons systems and in-built support systems as well. Only one Model exists, though its a common rumour that the Emperor has another suit in case one fails.
 * CSMK1 - The first mass-produced Combat Suit, usually awarded to Veterans or highly distinguished troops. Only Humans are allowed to use these, hence they are small in number, with only 100,000 examples recorded.
 * CSMK1-H - A Heavy variant of the CSMK1, the CSMK1-H was built to withstand larger amounts of damage than its predecessor, and was regularly used for surprise attacks. Suit wearers were shot out of their airborn vehicle down into enemy positions, causing havoc and terror. Its armour plating was immune to most hand-held weapons, with recorded RPG ammunition leaving the armour unscathed.
