'Deadboys' Vs. Stormtroopers

Tasoth · Post by **Tasoth** » 2003-01-04 01:24am

A rift opens up to Rifts Earth, sucking a squad of Stormtroopers in. The coalition states seeing them as aliens send out a squad to get rid of them. the CS 'Deadboy' has armor that is immune to personal firearms, a suit of heavy armor being close to a stormtroopers. Standard issue weapon for a Deadboy is a C-12 heavy laser which can burn through a lesser suit of armor in around 2 shots. always wondered who'd take it.
each side has 10 men, standard issue equipment.

The Troopers would win, but just watch the Glitterboys arrive.

Roasted Stormie, Anyone?

Glitterboys use the Boomguns more like they can now use the stormies to strain spaghetti

Doesn't work on Acclimated Zentradi, mine actually like Heavy Metal, and Wagner.

Zentraedi fear the Invid. Send in some shocktroopers and its over.

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2003-01-04 02:14am

Fear is not the right word.....

Hate is.

I mean how could an entire squadron of Invid shock troops stand up agianst one female powersuit?

We are talking about the same Rifts arent we ?

I mean, I dont know much about the Coalition states, but Im pretty sure any Rifts armour suit would laugh blaster shots off judging by the power of the Silver River Republics armour, and IIRC they are gnerally lower technology than CS, apart from New Babylon.

AFAIK Stormies are generally issued with the most powerful T-dets.

an AT-ST for the Empire and UAR for the CS
2 Dark Troopers for Empire, 2 SAMAS's for the CS

UAR is the Enforcer, no? It's screwed. Crappy gun placement, exposed sensor systems, and too bulky for its mission.

2 Dark Troopers for Empire, 2 SAMAS's for the CS

Don't know Dark Troopers capability, so no comment.

or a Sith Lord for the Empire and a Glitterboy for the CS....

Well, the Glitterboy would have to be from Quebec, since no other CS territory uses them. Assuming pre-Free Quebec, and a standard Glitterboy, the advantage would most likely go to the Sith. The Glit needs to plant the foot pylons to fire the Boom Gun, and if the Sith has the Burst of Speed ability that Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan showed in the hallway of the Federation ship, then the Sith can get out of the firing arc before the Glitterboy can fire. The Sith would need to close in to saber range, at which point the Glitterboy is dead due to its complete lack of any close-range weaponry. Only on completely flat, bare ground with an ambush would the Glitterboy stand any chance at all.

Unfortunate the CS dosent have Ripping Claws...

The Kreeghor have long found the CAF`s Silverhawk powered armor a thorn in their side. With its ability to penetrate the heaviest shields as if they are not there, and its heavy weaponry, it poses a serious threat to ships and bases. There is nothing to ruin your day like a Silverhawk coming through your shields and shooting up various of your gun turrets, or worse, like breaking open your ships hull and coming inside to do more damage. Various attempts to design shields that were impervious to the Silverhawks shield disruptor all ended in failure, and the crew of at least one Berserker with a new shield system had to initiate a self-destruct, after being boarded by Silverhawks......

One Kreeghor Warlord had a different idea: If the TGE ships could not keep the Silverhawks out, then at least the TGE should be able to heap a similar load of nastiness onto its enemies! Having learned from the mistake of the Warlord who designed the Eradicator Battlecruiser, he first asked permission from the Emperor himself before beginning research into a new weapon. After some deliberation the Emperor agreed. The idea of Kreeghor warriors taking the fight, gloriously and singlehandedly, to enemy ships appealed to him.

The power armor that ultimately emerged from the Warlords workshops was designed as much for effectiveness as it was for its psychological effect: Heavily armed, very fast, and terrifying to look at. All of this, in combination with the forcefield disruptor have made it a favorite among Kreeghor troops, despite the fact that Kreeghor usually do not like flight-capable powered armors very much.

The Ripping Claw was meant to fly to starships under a fighter escort, and to enter starships and bases to fight inside of them. Because of this it was decided to fit the armor with mostly short ranged weapons, exchanging range for firepower. In each fore arm there is a powerful tri-barreled plasma cannon, capable of firing either single bolts or bursts. Special software allows the firing of the two weapons as one attack at the same target. Backing this up are two chest mounted multi-barreled lasers. These fire sprays of laser pulses, having little range, but good power, and a increased chance to hit, which is very useful for shooting down incoming missiles.

Backing this up are two mini-missile launchers on the sides of the backpack. Each of these holds twelve mini-missiles, and they protrude over each shoulder. What appear to be wings are actually very large vibro blades mounted on the back of the armor. These can be used for slashing and fly-by attacks. The armor can also engage in direct hand-to-hand combat.

lastly, the Ripping claw can use any kind of portable weapons that are available, such as the Gravity Autocannon from the Warlord MKII powered armor.

Is that from Anvil Galaxy?

Rifts: Phase World.

The Dark · Post by **The Dark** » 2003-01-05 02:06am

I don't remember that from Phase World or Phase World Sourcebook. Phase World had the Silverhawk, the hunched-over Kreeghor power armor, and the Battleram, while the Sourcebook had the police suit and the Avenger. Maybe my book was missing pages or something. I'll have to look again when I go back home, I left all my Palladium books there.
