åBabe Technician Rachael Sterner reporting, %r. With
your permission I'd like to go over some of the latest
develpments of the Technical Department. We have upgraded
the ordnance capacity of your Type II Scatter grenades. Now
grenade consists of twelve grenadlettes, not eight. This
should allow you to saturate an area better, creating more
multiple impact kill zones, sir. We have also upgraded your
missile launcher system to carry eight Raven missiles per
pack. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Some of the
new weapons we have developed are going to turn the tide of
this war. First is the Thermolite insulate. This device
connects to a hardpoint and provides protection against
thermal heat loss. The result is that any PPC armed while
the insulate is active only loses half the heat it used to!
This means you get twice the firepower with your PPC's! We
have also developed the most powerful weapon that can be
carried by the A.C.E., the 'Osprey' missile. Nothing does
more raw damage than this missile, sir. It should take out
any target with one shot. The Osprey system coupled with
the Quick Lock data chip is a deadly combination. Because
of the size of the missile, we could only pack four into
each launcher. We'll be busy trying to increase that number
for you, %r. Finally sir, the Tech staff has been
busy working on an effective way to dissipate kinetic and
thermal energy. We think we have succeeded. By using some
of the equipment found in the Time Displacement Chamber, we
have been able to develop an electromagnetic displacement
resonating field. In effect, the A.C.E. battle armor now
has shields, in addition to the protective armor. These
shields can dissipate energy, causing less damage, but they
tend to weaken quickly. At best they'll give you an extra
second or two in an all out firefight, but that may be all
you need. They regenerate by tapping into the fusion core
for energy. Shield strength will be displayed on the bottom
left battle screen of your helmet, sir. The brighter the
aura around you, the stronger your shields are. We'll be
working hard on trying to increase the rate at which the
shields regenerate. Until then, good luck %r.
