Illyrian Hegemony Equipment Wishlist By Sean Wadey# 356597

This crystal equipment has been around for since the early 3100's the equipment for the the lightest mecha actually was first introduced with the Red Ant in 3087 and the Shocklite in the 3090's. This equipment can be found on the mercenary, gladiatorial and black markets easily and is still in use by many Illyrian security forces and clan military units on tight budgets as well as the insane remnants of the Illyrian garrison on Vupa 6.

(I have not yet figured a balancing cost for these pieces of equipment but due to inherent draw backs like the Emminence Engine they will be relatively low cost compared to the bonuses they give.)

Equipment Name: Aquilam Cogitum
Cost: # ferrite, # bioptics

These are the rest of the engines in the same series as the well known Eminence Engine. They are a powerful standard among the Hegemonian fleets and infantry--their designs have been improved countless times. Unfortunately these sturdy engines begin to falter when subjected to focused radiation of many sorts; this is a problem that has yet to be resolved.

At first glance these are very similar to the shields available on the mercenary and black markets. However the Illyrian shields seem to attract missiles with the one exception of the missile shield which is based on point defense technology instead of an energy field.

(Note that a 60 to 70 ton mecha with 4 cockpit, chassis and engine slots and 5 shield slots using the above equipment and Eminence Engines and one of each type of shield would have the following modifiers from equipment: Speed +16, Auto-repair (4), Dodge (32), Shield (20), Precision (32), Crit-kill +12, Projectile Shield 14%, Laser Vulnerable 16%, Missile Vulnerable 16%, Fire Vulnerable 16% and Ice Vulnerable 16%. This is not actually considered that much of a draw back since the Meji Shogunate and Cogwerks forces rely so heavily on projectile weapons.)

Now recently the Illyrian Hegemony has allowed Star Factories to start selling the Ammonite, Gigus, Skraig, Nakshi, Magnus, Jadoon and Yallan on the open mercenary market. This is alien technology they have been researching for years and/or the heaviest and most powerful weapon systems used by clans such as the House of Romulous and Strategoi. The only reason these would be going to the mercenary market is Star Factories is already producing something better strictly for the clans of the Illyrian Hegemony.

(The following Niode equipment is what I believe they have developed to replace the older systems above for these yet to be revealed new mecha. Again I have not yet determined a balanced cost.)
