the Gi Joe Power Fighter

After he got put to work in the Gi Joe team's Star Brigade full time, Gears started applying his unique brand of genius to the group's equipment. Already an expert in multiple fields, he started work on shrinking the team's rather large (if effective) Armor Bot.

The result is a much smaller mech. While it's more diminutive than the rather large Armor Bot, and not a self-sealed system like the Star Brigade Armor, the Power Fighter is a happy medium between the two, offering the following to prospective Gi Joe combatants:

Ability Enhancement (w): the Gi Joe Power Fighter enhances the physical capabilities of its wearer (usually Gears) considerably. It will typically add +4 to his Strength, and +1 to his Agility, with a practical limit of 12.

Body Armor (s): the Gi Joe Power Fighter is made from sturdy materials, having an effective material strength of 12. However, the occupant is only partially protected by its plating, and thus, offers but +2 protection from attack.

Communications Gear (i): the Gi Joe Power Fighter has a built in communication rig, one with a significant range; space is pretty vast, after all. This gear has intensity 8 communications range (2,500 miles) with intensity 10 signal encryption.

Laser Cannons: both of the Gi Joe Power Fighter's right arms are laser cannons. Each of these is configured differently, but both can be fired to inflict the operator's Agility +7 damage per deadly blast - and have a line of sight range in vacuum!

Radar Unit (w): the Gi Joe Power Fighter has a dedicated radar unit built in, with a convenient command screen for its operator that rests in his field of vision. It can be used to track targets with intensity 10 ability (and within artillery range).

Rocket Launcher (i): the upper left arm of the Power Fighter is an oversized rocket launcher! It can fire up to three projectiles at once, inflicting intensity 10 damage if one missile hits, and adding +1 for each additional projectile that strikes its target.

Slasher Saw (s): the lower left arm of the Power Fighter has a large, diamond-tipped circular saw mounted on. This weapon can be used to inflict the Power Fighter operator's Strength rank +3 damage, and can cut through items of up to m.s. 20.
