REPUBLIC SNOWTROOPER ARMOR
This armor set, originally based on the Sith Troopers Kit of the old Republica, is very much of a similar design. Sporting the exact same chest plate, helmet, and other general armor parts, this specific armor piece comes with a long insulated face mask and cloak that is designed to help the wearer in Sub-arctic conditions. The armor has an insulated suit modification that helps keep the wearer warmer while out in the elements. This armor kit, once grey for the Sith Troopers, is now painted purple to honor their new host, the Republic. Because the armor is supposed to provide uniformity across the republic, variation is minimal, although certain specialty troops and those stationed on environmentally hostile planets are given special equipment to deal with the elements (mag-boots, thermal or enviro-suits, life boxes, etc). This suit is one of those aforementioned examples. The Snowtrooper's kit is more aligned to fit a sub-zero environment. This gear is still standard issue for troopers visiting such a designated planet (such as Hoth or Rhen Var).The standard equipment array for this variation consists of a Scout HUD, voice scrambler, and integrated commlink.
LEGALITY
Possession and wear of Republic military uniforms is highly illegal- at least in Republic Space if not part of the military itself. Outside of that, you're unlikely to be taken kindly to wearing this armor when posed against a faction that holds the Republic in a negative light..
INTENT
To provide a sub arctic uniform for the republic troopers.

Functions
Function 1: Voice Scrambler
- For the unusually paranoid, this helmet function can scramble a person's voice to unintelligible garbage, while allowing commlink conversations to continue as normal. Alternatively, it can be used to "digitize" a voice into a deep bass tone.
Function 2: Scout HUD
- Contains a 4x magnifier and Compass.
Function 3: Environmental Suit
- While it is not rated for extended exposure to extreme hazards, this body suit (when combined with an enclosed helmet) can protect the wearers body from the effects of environmental and weaponized toxins and similar hazards for up to 5 posting rounds.
Function 4: Insulated UnderSuit
- Protects 1-2 Rounds Against Extreme Cold or Cryoban Weapons
