Power Armor Power Modification

I was wondering under the Power Armor flaw there is a limitation that says you may apply additional power modifications but they are limited to specific ones. I was wonder what the “Static” power modification was referring to or if it was simply a power mod that was going to be put in but was removed.

Greetings and welcome to the boards!

Static was removed from the book and will appear in a future book… sadly we ran out of space and I had to cut quite a few things from the final manuscript.

In the same vein I was also wondering how many different External Power Sources you would allow a Tech Hero to have at character creation or 150xp.

That’s up to each individual editor.

For example, a character I created possessed a suit of power armor and sonic cannon which possessed its own power source.

As an aside, the way the Power Armor flaw is written, it has its own (1) power source…

Keep in mind, the more power sources you have, the more chances things can go wrong during a scene…

On this note I have a question.

I am building a tech/heavy hero who has a suit of power armor.

The powers I have chosen are Armor, Enhanced Attack (sword of light), Enhanced Attack (die bump for sword of light), Life Support and Wireless.

Do I now apply the Power Armor flaw to each power getting me 15 points to put back into power ranks or is it just one application that covers all the powers and I only get 3 points?

Yes, you apply the rank adjustment to each power which is part of the power armor.

Also do I get the Removable Item points or is that just a rider that comes with Power Armor?

It’s just part of the package and as such you don’t get the bonus ranks for removable item

It would the same way “allskill” works. Remove all other flaws when you apply “static”.

Had a read of the book today at game day. Not the Flaw I thought it was.
