ssap armor

Just messing around in the Legacy universe created by


Presenting: the Single Soldier Advance Phalanx weapons system. Also simply called SSAP armor by the soldiers who use it. Designed for heavy sniping missions by individual Human/Alaereen strike forces, deep into hostile territory. The Alaerin caries a long-range high-powered laser cannon as her main weapon. She also carries several body-mounted anti-personel weapons, independently manned by her human crew. (...Yeah, Alaereen are big...) When used as designed, the Alaerin fires at the main target from the prone position, allowing gunners on her leg, shoulder, and back to provide suppressive fire. As the old Spartans used to say regarding their phalanx, they would protect her 'from thigh to neck.'




I may have messed up the Human-to-Alaerin scale, I'm not good enough at drawing tech-stuff to make those attached turrets look functional, and really, this whole idea is laughably implausible.......But this a textpook case for applying the Rule of Cool (tm) [link] So I am going with it!
