DESCRIPTION
The Clamberwolf-class power armor is TarkinTech's evolution of the classic Scout Trooper armor, designed for increased protection and force multiplication with minimal restriction in mobility. The most obvious shortcoming of the original Scout Trooper armor is the lack of coverage over much of the body, protecting the torso, shoulders, and head while leaving the rest with only the jumpsuit protecting the rest, while the Clamberwolf provides full-body protection.

Jump servos in the legs and an enhanced optics suite are both designed to aid the suits' wearer in reconnaissance, while magnetic plates on the back and thighs allow for easy weapon storage without the need to worry about clumsy slings or holsters. A self-repair system, combined with storage for rations, allows for extended operations behind enemy lines without support.

The armor, of course, does have its shortcomings. As a light powersuit, it is less durable than the other powersuits TarkinTech has been rolling out, and is susceptible to succumbing to concentrated fire.
