Exhaustion Factors

              The nature of this particular muscular system is the participation of the pilot during movement.  If the power armor is running, then the pilot is running, or rather visa versa; Movements of the pilots are replicated in scale by the power armor itself.  Due to this fact, and unlike a Mecha where the pilot is seated and comfortable, the power armor tends to exhaust the user accordingly.  See the following table for details.

              Note: Use of the armor gives the Following bonuses to the pilots’ actions while using the armor; the following tables modifiers affect only the bonuses of the Armor, NOT the pilots base physical statistics. All modifiers to STR/PP/SPD listed on the table are cumulative; the modifiers to PE are NOT cumulative.

              Bonuses:  Strength +12, Prowess +17, Speed +22 These physical bonuses are exceptional, and for a very short time make the Armor Very Mobile and Very Strong, however the dependency on the pilots endurance causes this super-human quality to vanish very quickly.

Note: A critical success or a success over 5 points on an endurance check will give a +1 for the next physical endurance check.

Heavy Activity: Constant Heavy Lifting / Full Run or Sprint / HTH Combat, or any combo of the above
