IMPERIAL DEFENSE FORCE ARMOR

This armor is the standard issue piece of equipment given to the Imperial Defense Force. Made up largely of former members of local defense forces, this armor is what is donned when conflict is anticipated. It is quite similar to the trooper armor of past eras, but without some of the portions that evoke memories of past tyrannies. This armor is based off of designs of local planetary defense force armor and is produced on a large scale.

The plates are made of thick duraplast layered over an environmental suit that allows combatants to fight in a variety of situations. It is heavier and more protective than its assault corps counterpart due to altered needs. It comes standard with a belt and numerous pouches for storage of important equipment as well as a comlink built into the helmet.

LEGALITY

This armor is property of the Imperial Military. Usage by those who are not members of the Imperial Military is illegal and will be punished accordingly.

INTENT

This is to flesh out the armor used by one of the branches of the Imperial Army. It is designed to provide a base set of armor for those wishing to serve within that branch.
