<!--coloro:#F4A460--><span style="color:#F4A460"><!--/coloro-->Heavy armor<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->: removes sprinting and jumping, but armor is increased (multiplier x1.5)

Max 1 per marine. Need to be replenished at armories. Large area damage in vents (5m), but low area in open areas (3m).

<!--coloro:#F4A460--><span style="color:#F4A460"><!--/coloro-->Frag<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->: 100 stucture damage
<!--coloro:#F4A460--><span style="color:#F4A460"><!--/coloro-->Stun<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->: works as an Onos stomp
<!--coloro:#F4A460--><span style="color:#F4A460"><!--/coloro-->Napalm<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->: instantly applies 2-3 stacks of burning

Note: Heavy armor shouldn't allow the use of jetpack.

I did think there was room for a medium armor type, more armor, less mobility, but not an exo.

Also flamer turrets could be interesting, fits with their role as a support unit, would basically allow them to mark aliens for marines defending the room by setting them on fire. Spotlights could also be useful but they might be hard to place well.

actually no allow the use of a jetpack with heavy, it would be hilarious watching that thing trying to pick up such a fatty. :P
