Who are the Troopers?: In the 23rd century, Terra [Earth] is governed by the United Citizens Federation, a veteran-lead republic, forged from the chaos created by 22nd century "social scientists." The Mobile Infantry are the elite fighting arm of this republic. Composed entirely of volunteers, each Trooper swears to lay down his or her life in the defense of Terra, when they take the Service oath. This term of service is for "not less than two years, or as much longer as may be required by the needs of the Service....". Once the term has been served out, the Troopers are accorded all the rights and privileges of Federation citizenship. Service guarantees citizenship.
What is MI Basic Armour?: Mobile Infantry troopers have a range of armor types at their disposal. Basic armor is the standard issue MI body armor [as seen in the movie]. Basic Armour is issued to every trooper. A trooper in basic kit is known as a Cap Trooper.
What is MI Powered Armor?: Powered Armor suits are difficult to produce and limited in number. The different classes of armor are made available to troopers progressively through the war.
What kinds of Powered Armour are available?: There are three types of powered armor suits: Scout, Marauder and Command. Each type of armor comes in three classes: 3rd class, 2nd class and 1st class armor. 3rd Class armor is a light armor, with minimal on-board systems. 2nd Class armor is much heavier and has special abilities tied to the type of armor. 1st Class armor is extremely heavy duty armor. It boasts dual fire power, as well as special abilities.
What is Scout Armour?: Scout Armor are very fast and designed for long range reconnaissance. They support a range of light armaments, and provide addition intelligence through onboard "Snooper" systems in the 1st and 2nd class models.
