Editing Setting:Brighthammer 40,000/Space Marines (1st edition) (section)

== War/Exploration Gear ==
Heavy or specialized Exploration gear are primarily used/bought by Mercenary Marines due to the simple fact that while some Imperium Marines are ordered on some science or research missions, they are primarily tasked as armed security/escort or a strictly military defensive force and nothing more.

=== Armor ===
Next to (or even more important then) a marines weapon is the primary combat/survival armor of a Space Marine. A Marines Power Armor is fully customized according to a Marines rank, position, and Legion/Company and or Chapter affiliation. The only true main difference between Warhammer and BrightHammer armor configuration is that ''All'' Marine armor is equipped with Jump packs for near instant maneuverability in any or all combat conditions.

Also known as "Red Belt armor" due to the obvious well...Red Belt this is the most basic and commonly seen Space Marine armor on most Imperium controlled worlds.

Light and powerful made of a combination of Plasticene and [[Ceramite]] the armor composites creates a kind of artificial "chitinous" or exoskeletal like covering over the wearers body like a insect that creates as a complete as possible protection for any marine in most high/extreme combat conditions.

Lightweight and low on wargear and general equipment the Scout armor is built exactly for its namesake, low visibility and quick infiltration of enemy lines, sabotaging and gathering intelligence. Also the armor is used by most basic (non-Specialized) infantry marines due to its central/practical usage as a peacekeeper/SWAT like police action armor.

==== Tactical ====

Powerful and highly maneuverable Tactical Marine armor is what comes into play when the situation gets more serious then a bank robbery or hostage negotiation. For full scale war Tactical armor is needed. All basic and commando based imperium infantry use Tactical armor for Heavy combat and swift victory.

Tactical Armor uses far more equipment and weapons then basic Scout armor but is essentially the same in design and ease of movement. However Tactical Armor internally consists of extra layers of Ceramite and paper thin layers of hand forged Ultra-Titanium for extra protection and durability.
