Mandalorian
armour is the very symbol of Mandalorian technological superiority, and the most common sight when facing Mandalorian forces.
Although the armour is regularly improved and modified, the same general look is maintained, and armour suits from thousands
of years ago are only slightly different on a visual inspection.
The
armour is based on technology introduced to the Mandalorian Empire by the Juannar, who required advanced armour and atmosphere
suit technology to venture away from their homeworld. Adapted for use by the more physically robust Mandalorians, this technology
gave their troops an edge in combat from the very start, and it is mainly down to this technology that the Mandalorians, who
have been vastly outnumbered by their opponents in virtually every conflict they have ever entered, to become a feared and
greatly respected fighting force throughout the galaxy.
Although
Mandalorian troops are well disciplined and maintain a strict fighting order, they are encouraged to decorate their armour
and individualise it, however even this small amount of encouraged individuality is forbidden when circumstances warrant,
and Mandalorian armour is often modified for special missions. These modifications may vary from addition of extended air
tanks for missions in hostile environments, right down to camoflage colour schemes for missions and service on jungle or ice
worlds.
Mandalorian Light "Scout" Armour
Model: Mandalorian Light Battle Armour Type: personal battle Armour: Basic Suit Wristlaser Flame Projector Jetpack IR/motion Sensor Sensor Pod Macrobinoculars Evironmental Filter: AKA spacesuit/lasts one hour air supply Broadband Antenna: Can intercept and decode most communications frequencies. Can patch into shipboard and vehicular
communications systems.
Description: This is the lightest of the Mandalorian Armours as used by Jango
and Boba Fett, usually issued to Mandalorian scouts, but is also used by their pilots as a spacesuit/ survival suit should
they become seperated from their ship. The armour contains all of the basic systems that make the armour unique, but is primarily
designed to be light and maneuverable.

Sensor Pod Macrobinoculars Jetpack
Evironmental Filter: Blocks most harmful molecules in the atmosphere or seal with a 1 hour air supply. Broadband
Antenna: Can intercept and decode most communications frequencies. Can patch into shipboard and vehicular communications
systems.
Description: Although only visually differing from the Scout armour by the addition
of a few armoured plates, the systems on this armour are considerably more powerful. These suits are the most common armour
used by the Mandalorian military, issued to regular infantry, Mandalorians prefer the freedom to fight that this armour allows
them rather than using combat vehicles such as walkers.

Description: The best armour that the Juannar and Mandalorian technicians could
build, these suits cost millions of credits to construct. These suits are only issued to members of the Mandalorian Imperial
Government, and the Mandalorian Emperors Elite Guard. Not only because of the value, but because of the honour attached to
this armour it is NEVER allowed into the hands of non-mandalorians, since this would be considered a surrender of their Imperial
power, and an insult to the Mandalorian people.
