Star Wars RolePlay

From my understanding of the rules, and bearing in mind this is coming from a non-tech admin, I think they're discouraged, and must still follow all the armor rules as they're laid out, but there hasn't really been a powered armor that meets that criteria yet.

I think power armor in this timeline would be just a frame that boosted wearers strength potentially but disallowed protection from smallarms like normal armor. It would be like fallout power armor frames without the external peices and just allow you to lift more, run faster perhaps and do those sort of things but with power drawbacks as well.
