DESCRIPTION

The London Babelfish is a translator earpiece developed in the Coalition city of "London" and used primarily by Field Agents to automatically translate foreign languages into dialogue matching the user's chosen language. The earpiece can be programmed to listen for and translate up to three common selected languages (most commonly Huroni, French & its Québécois dialects, and the wearer's personal language). To use the earpiece, the wearer must press down a button on the side of the device and remain silent as the device listens for any of the selected languages. As the device processes the spoken dialogue, it will translate and then covertly repeat the translated sentence into the wearer's ear. The earpiece is extremely likely to mistranslate if the targeted speech is very fast, has a strong or uncommon accent or dialect, or is being spoken over by another person.

NOTES: 

• This item is restricted to the Government. Gold Leaf Army characters cannot own this.

• This item has no official in-game or retexture representation. Any basic earpiece accessory will suffice.

DESCRIPTION

The QuikFoam® Coagulant Injector is an emergency medical device used to quickly and easily stabilise a basic gunshot wound. Used primarily by Corpsmen, the injector needle is inserted into the deepest point of a gunshot wound located on an extremity. The trigger is held for 2-3 seconds whilst the Corpsman brings the needle upwards and out of the wound in circular motions, filling the entire wound with coagulant foam. The foam compound will react when exposed to the casualty’s blood and will stop the bleeding within 20-30 seconds, dissolving after 60 minutes. The foam is very painful and uncomfortable for the patient in most cases, though a mild local anesthetic is included in the compound to dull the pain. This device should not be used on chest wounds, neck wounds, abdominal wounds, or head trauma.

NOTES: 

• This item is preferred by the Gold Leaf Army, but is available to the Government at a +2 price increase (5 stamps).

• This item can optionally be represented by the "Medical Biofoam" tool.

• This item can only be used three times. Refills can be purchased without a Logistics Officer meetup but are expensive.

• This item is freely self-awardable for LR3+ characters. It does take up a self-awarding slot.

DESCRIPTION

The Smartview® Spectacles are a newly rediscovered piece of technology. Their development peaked in 2030s with all kinds of quite useless features such as dimming the lenses depending on the sun exposure, or being able to access your phone's application without having it in hand—but their popularity decreased immensely going past 2050s, where their much more advanced and useful younger brother, the Augmented Reality Displays (ARDs) allowed for things like tapping directly into security feed, highlight objects or analyze crime scenes, which culminated in entrance into the military market in the form of Heads-Up Displays (HUDs). Nevertheless, Smartview® glasses aided the likes of the disabled, especially the deaf, before genetic/prosthesis treatment became common, by recording the nearby audio and displaying conversations on the lenses, to help with communication. As such, some models were placed in the US. "HALO" bunkers and troves—which opened without warning all across the Great Lakes region—resulted in the Coalition attaining these along with their blueprints. The Smartview® glasses are a slightly modified copy of the pre-Flash design, keeping the function of displaying nearby conversations on the lenses. What's new are the added cameras and microphones, allowing the user to record what they see and hear, at least up to four hours of footage. A recent update has also allowed the London Babelfish earpiece to be connected to the glasses, allowing them to translate any language the user has selected.

NOTES: 

• This item is restricted to the Government. Gold Leaf Army characters cannot own this.

• This item has no official in-game or retexture representation. Any modified glasses rig/accessory will suffice.

DESCRIPTION

A night-vision device exported from the Slagport Minewatch, the homeguard of the most damnable mining town in the Coalition. Crank powered to charge the one-hour long battery and prone to overheating if used too long, the Slagport Monocular has a white phosphorus tube that allows for basic—albeit fuzzy and near blinding if sprinting—night vision, best used while stationary. Those issued the device complain of its flimsy construction and liability to outright break if hit by shrapnel when affixed to any helmet. The eyepiece is too bulky to let users aim down scopes properly, forcing most to rely on iron sights on their weapons or even forgo them entirely and use sidearms instead. In recent times, a handful of Field Agents have been allowed to utilise this device.

NOTES: 

• This item is preferred by the Gold Leaf Army, but is available to the Government at a +2 price increase (7 stamps).

• This item is unavailable to non-Field Agent government roles.

• This item must be represented by the Slagport Monocular retextures.

DESCRIPTION

The W/ECM-D80 Signal Disruptor, affectionately named the Radiator for its appearance and the heat it produces, is a large 18 kilogram mounted backpack and one of the Coalition’s premier examples of technological development. Designed by engineers hailing from New Kitchener, the Radiator is functionally an indiscriminate short-range wireless system disabler, capable of scrambling radio signals, rendering the sensory components of droids virtually useless, crashing PDA, ARD, HUD, inter-link, and other similar wireless communications, and also rendering drones entirely inoperable. While a very powerful tool on the technology-reliant Sunrise Isles, the machine is significantly drawn back by a short range of influence and debilitating weight. The first prototypes for the Radiator were designed during the Huron Wars, then abandoned, before the project was revived following a violent diplomatic incident with the Northeast Union on the Sunrise Isles in 2161, then abandoned once more, before the final revival and long overdue production in response to the Midwestern Union’s widespread adoption of radios.

NOTES: 

• This item is restricted to the Gold Leaf Army. Government characters cannot own this.

• This item disables radios, HUDs/ARDs, PDAs, and drones that are within 40 studs (chat distance) to the wearer.

• This item weakens, blinds and deafens but does not disable droids that are within 40 studs (chat distance) to the wearer.

• The effects of this item briefly linger on any affected device or player that leaves the 40 stud range around the wearer.

• The Stopping Power Level assigned to this item only protects the wearer's back.

• This item will break once enough rounds have struck it according to its SPL. It may be replaced at no additional cost.

• The weight of this item restricts the wearer from wearing armour or wielding any weapon that is larger than a handgun.

• Usage of this item is required to be disclosed to all combat participants prior to skirmishing.

• This item must be represented by the W/ECM-D80 "Radiator" retextures.

DESCRIPTION

Named for its effectiveness in room-clearing and little else, the Bunker-Buster is an underbarrel, double-barreled 12 gauge shotgun which can be mounted to a variety of weapons and rail mount systems. This attachment is an efficient killing machine if you are able to bear its significant weight on the front of your gun and if your targets are within 10 meters of you. Both rounds fire at the same time, so make sure you brace yourself lest you want to be knocked over.

NOTES: 

• This item is preferred by the Gold Leaf Army, but is available to the Government at a +2 price increase (5 stamps).

• This item must be represented by the Keystone Locksmith or Mini-12 Masterkey attachments.

DESCRIPTION

The Advanced Lightgun Permit is a weapon permit granted to the most reliable and intellectual servicemen in the Gold Leaf Army—an uncommon sight, as very few wish to relinquish their ballistic capabilities for weapons that cost so much to maintain. Nevertheless, the permit grants a serviceman access to more powerful laser weaponry which would normally be stored away in the quartermaster for emergencies. Servicemen are expected to maintain the weapon out of their own pocket as the Logistics Office will not provide them spare parts.

NOTES: 

• Equipment that falls under the category of this permit (rare laser guns & rare plasma guns) can be found in the Tool Table.

• Owners of this permit may choose one permit item to bring with them outside of Bargetown (e.g. one advanced laser rifle).

• This item is preferred by the Gold Leaf Army, but is available to the Government at a +2 price increase (5 stamps).

• This item does not encompass all laser weapons, only those that are considered advanced or rare.

DESCRIPTION

Issued to only the most effective and devoted Servicemen the Gold Leaf Army has to offer, the Hamilton Arsenal Permit allows free carry of the Coalition's alien weaponry, typically only used by richer settlements like Hamilton. From napalm-spewing flamethrowers to more outlandish wasteland equipment like the terrifyingly electric Sunrise Surprise M3, this permit encompasses most of the Coalition's more experimental technology and firearms. Protective gear is not issued by the Logistics Office and must instead be purchased by the recipient. 

NOTES: 

• Equipment that falls under the category of this permit (flamethrowers & shockbreaches) can be found in the Tool Table.

• Owners of this permit may choose one primary permit item and one sidearm permit item to carry on their person (e.g. one flamethrower & one small shockbreach).

• Owners of this permit permanently unlock access to the Ordnancier role, but may not use destructive items in Bargetown.

• Owners of this permit must first transfer to the Ordnancier role in order to use flamethrowers and large shockbreaches.

• This item is restricted to the Gold Leaf Army. Government characters cannot own this.

DESCRIPTION

A ceremonial tunic derived from the earlier Drummerboy, the Harris Officer Tunic was created in the mid 2130s as a way to differentiate senior soldiers in Coalition militias before the development of the M.39 and subsequent improvements in uniform. Regarded as generally uncomfortable, sacrificing warmth and ergonomics for a highly formal put-together appearance, the tunic had become widely used to mark officers by the onset of the Huron War. By the formation of the United Expeditionary Force, nearly every Coalition militia used the tunic to some degree. The tunic was phased out across most of the Coalition in the years following the war with officers tending to prefer wearing modifications of the uniforms worn by lower ranks, a practice started by particularly practical Sergeants-at-Arms in the trenches. Nonetheless, the uniform has seen a resurgence—the old officer tunics were the first uniforms issued to the Registrar Corps upon its formation.

NOTES: 

• This item is restricted to the Gold Leaf Army and Registrar Corps. Government characters cannot own this.

• This item is freely self-awardable for LR3+ characters. It does not take up a self-awarding slot and can be self-awarded infinitely.

DESCRIPTION

The M65 N.B.C. and M32 'Daisy' N.B.C.—known colloquially as the 'Greenie suit' and 'Daisy suit'—are a pair of N.B.C. (Nuclear, Biological & Chemical) protection oversuits remade and popularised by water depot Point Alamo. The suit was created as protection from the hazardous elements of the post-Flash world like radiation storms, eldritch acid, biomass spores, smoke, and gas. While unintended by designers, the thick, non-permeable materials of the suit are notably scratch and fire-resistant, protecting the wearer from not only liquids and gasses, but also flames, claws and blades to an extent. Two variations of the suit exist, though the differences are merely visual.

The M32 'Daisy' N.B.C. suit is a pattern of the Coalition's N.B.C. model painted in bright yellows, golds and dull browns. The pattern was created to camouflage the wearer against clouds of Daisy Gas, taking advantage of the thick gas and its low visibility to gain a further strategic edge in chemical warfare. As such, it is commonly seen with Ordnanciers, Disruptors, Cavalrymen and other shocktrooper roles, though a full squad might be loaned one.

The M65 N.B.C. suit, granted no official nickname unlike the Daisy, is a pattern of the Coalition's N.B.C. model painted in dark greens and browns. The pattern was intended to camouflage the wearer against radiation storms, but given the colours, often makes appearances outside of these conditions as simple woodland camouflage. While lacking a documented nickname, the pattern is dubbed the 'Greenie suit' by an overwhelming majority of servicemen, and while the Coalition's upper echelons currently refuse to officially acknowledge such an offensive name, they don't discourage or reprimand its usage either. As such, the name is essentially official, crude or not.

NOTES

• This item is restricted to the Gold Leaf Army. Government characters cannot own this.

• This item, unlike other items, can be awarded to Marked Men by MR+ in rare circumstances.

DESCRIPTION

Commonly used at violent riots by corporate strikebreakers in industrialised areas, the Stetson Jawbreaker is a medium-sized rectangular riot shield. With a window made of reinforced glass and the body reinforced with fine metal, it is considered by many to be a militiaman’s best friend during a scuffle. Due to modifications, it is capable of resisting large rounds and any blunt or sharp strike against it, but the added weight usually slows the user down to a slow walk (especially if they are wearing other armour). With a rising amount of crime, an increased number of Constables have been seen utilising these shields for home raids or while quelling riots.

NOTES: 

• This item is preferred by the Government, but is available to the Gold Leaf Army at a +2 price increase (6 stamps).

• This item can be awarded to Marked Men by MR+ in rare circumstances.

• This item will break once enough rounds have struck it according to its SPL. It may be replaced at no additional cost.

DESCRIPTION

As some of the lightest armour in the Coalition’s possession, Tightweave weighs practically nothing in comparison to other armour pieces. It is produced locally by tailors using a tedious process of weaving compacted cotton together to form the vest, leading to the notable problem of increased susceptibility to laser weaponry with reports of the vest catching aflame when directly hit with any laser.

NOTES: 

• This item is preferred by the Government, but is available to the Gold Leaf Army at a +2 price increase (8 stamps).

• This item will break once enough rounds have struck it according to its SPL. It may be replaced at no additional cost.

DESCRIPTION

Marshstomper Patterning was first conceptualised following the first major conflict with the New Model Army in the Mudlands firebase of Point Alamo. Originally intended to help disguise troopers in the muddy, dark environs of the Mudlands, this purpose was led astray due to a lack of properly pigmented cloth, leading to the recogisable yellow tones today's Marshstomper pattern takes on. This warped the camouflage pattern into being primarily cosmetic, serving as recognition for the seasoned soldiers of the Alamo who served under the Coalition's banner in battles in the Mudlands. Uniquely, Marshstomper is only awarded by the advisory board of Point Alamo, and production of the pattern is primarily done within the outpost itself.

NOTES: 

• This item is restricted to the Gold Leaf Army and Marked Men. Government characters cannot own this.

• This item cannot be purchased and must be awarded by a staff member.

DESCRIPTION

The Increased Protection Permit allows Marked Men to carry ballistic helmets and old ballistic Cavalry Vests, ones which date back to the 2140s. Rooks usually cash in favours from a Registrar to get their hands on one of the archaic vests alongside a suitable helmet. Those who earn the permit are given a single dog tag with the outline of a shield scribbled into it.

NOTES: 

• This item is restricted to the Marked Men. Gold Leaf Army and Government characters cannot own this.

• This item cannot be purchased and must be awarded by a staff member.

DESCRIPTION

The Whitneyville Deflector is a set of compact armour inspired by pieces captured in Huron and later purchased in incredibly small amounts by Bargetown. Its construction—quite similar to medieval lamellar—covers the torso and upper arms and is built specifically so that it can be worn comfortably beneath an overcoat, though wearers find that the armour is much too bulky to wear under anything thinner. Legends say that these suits are capable of deflecting bullets right back at enemies, but in reality, a lack of decent shock absorption ensures that the wearer will feel each bullet their vest catches. Capable of stopping multiple sniper rifle rounds, the Whitneyville Deflector is a great asset for front-and-centre politicians and paranoid agents alike, though the stiffness prevents the wearer from properly wielding any weapons.

NOTES: 

• This item is restricted to the Government. Gold Leaf Army characters cannot own this.

• This item cannot be purchased with stamps.

• This item will break once enough rounds have struck it according to its SPL. It may be replaced at no additional cost.
