Does Armor Have Lights?


General Discussion


For all the talk about the environment protections that armor has, it never mentions if there is any type of lighting attached to the armor. As GM I'm gonna house rule that there is either a helmet light or one on the shoulder. Probably gonna say gives 180 arc and goes out 15-20'. But I was curious if anyone has run across any official ruling?

All armor of level 1 and higher has a build in personal comm unit. (page 430 CRB).
All personal comm units have a flashlight which increases lightl level by one step in a 15 ft. cone (page 218 CRB).

Thus all armor of level 1 and higher can produce a 15 ft. cone of light that increases the light level by one step.


Armory has the Light Projector armor upgrade. (level 1, 150 cr, increases light level by one step in a 100 ft. cone or 50 ft. radius)


Thank you Damanta and Ade. I don't know why they couldn't just state that under the armor description instead of including that piece in planetary communication.

There Are FOUR Lights!


actually to be honest they need to do a full overhaul in what armor can and cant do, as well as make armor not such a catch all impervious to environmental effects
