NOTE: All Warhammer 40K weapons can be seen on the terms and appendix page on the Vox Caster Tactical Net.
Armour
Light weight
Cloaks, tunics, robes, other redwall attire.
What it says really...
Nearly no armour value at all. (In other words they won't protect you from bullets or a blade unless you have something on underneth that does...)
Astartes Scout Armour
Toughened plates of a ceramite and adimantium compound mix. Full body, no helmet. Can be conceled under a robe. Provides as much protection as chain mail if working by future against old redwall.
Mesh Armour
Like scout armour, but lighter and not as resilient, Full body, no helmet, stiffens under impacts from bullets, and some blades. Can be hidden under robes.
Carpace Armour
Made of a metal compund in a scale-like way to save weight. Can be conceled under a robe or tunic. Comes with a helmet (Like a current millitry helmet) A bit more protective than Mesh Armour.
Medium weight
Astartes Power Armour/Astartes Artifacer Armour
Exactly the same as one another, Artifacer armour is more ornate.
Both offer good protection from bullets and blades, full armour. Thicker plates of the same compund as Scout Armour. Bulky, has an external powerplant mounted as a back-pack. Can be conceled under a large enough robe. Equivelent of both chain and platemail armour together.
Heavy Armour
Astartes Terminator Armour
Thick plates of the same compund as Scout and Power Armour. Internal Servos carry most of the weight. Lightest of the heavy armours (Yes there are a few that are heavier...
) Completely inconceleable due to shape* and sheer bulk. Equivelent of 6x the amout of the comparison between power armour and chain+platemail.
Dreadnought
The only thing more resiliant than a terminator Without being a literal tank. Only near-dead heros are placed within the armoured shell of the machine. Esentially a Cyborg. 10x thicker plates than terminator armour, of the same construction as the other Astartes armours. Compleatly unconcelable due to the same reasons as terminator armour. External power plant. Only three weapons carriable. Comparible to the walls of a stone fortress (Yeah, the plates are that thick and heavy...).

Assualt Drill*: A long, arm weapon that takes the place of a gauntlet. Three/four crushing, spiky domes take the place of fingers (They are on finger-like protrisions), these spin, as does the wrist. Oprional ranged weapons in the middle of the claw-like part are; autogun (max of six), lasgun (same), Pulse weapons (max of four) storm bolter (max of one) and shurikan/ catapult/splinter rifle (max of two). Mid/heavy.
NOTES: *Denouts Dreadnought equipable weapons. Storm bolter can only be equiped under a close combat weapon.
