Do you think a .50 cal would be sufficient to defeat power armors?

Who knows? A light suit might just be an exoskeleton. An assault suit might be able to eat 20mm for a few hits.
>>
>>29806118
Well not a tank.

But I don't know what power fantasy you're interested I don't vidya much anymore.

I just threw my robe on and casted a level 7 armor spell on it tho.

Your move kid.

DON'T HAVE ANY? DO YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE THAT MAGGOT? YOU JUST LOST AN EXPENSIVE PIECE OF ARMY. ISSUE. EQUIPMENT. AND THAT SUIT IS GUNNA COME OUTA YOUR PAY.

If I was shooting at a armored suit, i'd hit the same points as I would against a heavily armored human with a plate carrier. Such as the groin, thigh, collar bone area, joints etc etc.

Tho if we have the power to make a suit, we have to power to make a rail gun of sorts. And if not, then 14.5 should have enough force to do some damage , if it was AP and under 300 m I'd bet on it in-fact.
>>
>>29806402
Well is the suit armored in ceramic or steel? Either way yeah .50 would be sufficient wether a well placed shot from a Barrett or a well placed burst from an m2.

The lore, the t51 powered armour could take a hit from a tank, that's why the Red Chineese spazzed out and started lobbing missiles when the American forces surrounded Bejing. In game, oh HELL no. You take damage from idiots with 9mm pistols.

.50 has been able to easily defeat powered armor in every case of it showing up in the same game (Tactics, New Vegas and Wasteland 2). As for IRL, id say definitely since the amount of armor an exoskeleton could carry while still being able to remain mobile would be Stryker-tier at best, and they can only handle rifle fire.

Sorry Gunny, how the fuck am I supposed to pay back the Army for this shit?

If we're going be Fallout logic, it did take the NCR pulse grenades and armor-piercing rounds to push the BoS out of the power plant, and even then they took heavy losses.

Say hi to the NCR police for me.


And the best way, if there's any, is to TRY to hit the joints. Ignoring the T-60 piece of shit that bethseda released, the only way that a T-51 could be taken out seems to be massive overwhelming major power. Like leveling hills shit
>>
>>29812371

God dammit we could've set up such a fucking Utopian vision of what America could've been.

But we got undone by some filthy mutant wearing a loincloth and a bunch of other mutants banging sticks together that just so happened to have a T-51.

Our recruits are trained with the T-51, how is it that our recruits are better trained/armored than the Botherhood and that commie NCR but we still lost? Millennials man.

Yeah, because living in grinding poverty while Brahmin barons take you for everything you're worth and supermutants beat you to death with your own arms (assuming they don't turn you into one of them with vats of FEV) is so much better than living in an American democracy that seeks to achieve greatness for all

Brother-Paladin I think you've been playing Fallout 3 too much.

The BoS literally gives no fucks about you and will not hesitate to murder the shit out of you if they find you have advanced tech and won't give it up. They only hesitantly cooperated in F1/F2 because the Master/Enclave was about to wreck their shit

Are you sure about that? Because I don't think you've played more than Fallout 3 if you think that's the case. The Outcasts you see are more indicative of what the Brotherhood actually are; they'll NEVER go out and do all this heroic shit and rescue wastelanders let alone recruit them, the Eastern BoS was an unusual case and the BoS command structure both send them east and excommunicated them because of it

>>29812637

Actually the X-02 was chosen was the mainline power armor because it was faster, lighter, but yet stronger than the material that was used to produce the T-51B. Hence their trainees use the older, heavier T-51B to become more accustomed to what basically Power Armor feels like before moving onto use their X-02. Would you entrust a 16 year old with a Bentley, or a Ford Focus?

>>29812685

You mean the T-51B's, that the Brotherhood that? Because that was their ONLY power armor at the time?

Yes, because it's not hard to do when you hit them in mass after their command structure and supply lines had basically been destroyed
