Okay, I'm gonna spill something on how we do power armor here ... we take mil-
spec armor and go ahead and put cybertech and vehicle mods into the armor.
The person still needs to be able to shoulder the weight, so we throw in stuff
like Muscle Replacement and other things which either increase the effective
strength of the pc or reduce the weight of the suit (like Smart Materials
does).
