SPECIAL FEATURES
STRENGTHS
  • Star Burn: In spite of its light design, The VG/ICS-02 is rated to withstand direct hits from blaster cannons and other energy and heat-based weapon types of similar power quotients. While vehicle-grade weapons (i.e. laser cannons) are beyond its capability, the infantry combat system provides its wearer with excellent protection against directed energy threats. In this regard, the construction-integrated anti-energy field provides resistance to disruptors that is commensurate with the infantry combat system’s resistance to more standard energy weapons.
  • Scream of Defiance: The VG/ICS-02 has a high-rated sound dampening overlay which gives it the ability to thoroughly mitigate and defend against the deleterious effects of sonic weaponry, up to large man-portable sonic cannons.
  • Storm Dancer: Owing to its combat de-ionizers and integrated liquid-aenite coatings, the VG/ICS-02 is hardened against Ion and EMP-based assaults, allowing it to maintain a degree of robustness under conditions of interference which might otherwise disable much of the integrated electronics.
  • Low Profile: The VG/ICS-02 has a greatly diminished observation profile owing to its camouflage and polymer coatings, while the D-baffling system renders it nearly dead silent. Both of these systems lower the overall signature of the unit, but they do not offer true stealth capability or invisibility. Instead, they serve to make the infantry combat system and its user more difficult to distinguish from the surrounding environment and harder to detect.
  • Persistence: The reactive polymer underlay provides a powerful strength enhancement to the wearer. It generally triples their effective strength, allowing them to not only better withstand the physical demands of combat for longer periods, but also to potentially overpower enemies in hand-to-hand combat.
WEAKNESSES
  • Tensor: Although the VG/ICS-02 is optimized to mitigate damage from most forms of energy-based assaults, tensor weapons are indeed the exception. In firing compressed tractor beam waves, they can bypass most of the defenses and affect the wearer’s body at a cellular level, with the potential to cause severe injury or outright death.
  • Deep Freeze: While the VG/ICS-02 is rated to protect the wearer from all environments (including arctic planets the likes of Hoth and Ilum), it unfortunately does not grade well in terms of defense against cold-based weaponry. That is to say that the biting, freezing power of cryogenic weapon systems is far more penetrating than that presented by cold environments. Thus, wearers are advised to rely on other means of protection should they come to face these weapons.
  • Acerbic Affliction: While the VG/ICS-02 holds up fairly well against blasters and slugthrowers, corrosive and acid weapons present a much larger problem in that they can eat through the protective material rather quickly, with the potential to inflict harm on the wearer in the process.
  • Plasma Lance: Given the ubiquity of lightsabers and Force-wielders on modern battlefields, the VG/ICS-02’s relatively low resistance to the vaunted laser sword may represent a critical weakness. For this reason, wearers are advised to maintain their distance when facing combatants wielding such weaponry.
DESCRIPTION
Designed for the Viper Group, the VG/ICS-02 Multipurpose Standard Infantry Combat System is an all-environment, multipurpose combat protection uniform optimized for use by infantry and as an armored field uniform. Like many First United Astral Engineering-designed systems, the VG/ICS-02 is a feature-rich platform. Providing its wearers with top-of-the-line protection and utility, the standard infantry combat system ensures that assault-oriented, heavy, and shock infantry of the Viper Group remain resilient and lethal in the face of overwhelming resistance.

Thus, the VG/ICS-02 Multipurpose Standard Infantry Combat System is hoped to prove a reliable platform for the Viper Group, giving the organization the ability to extract power and wealth from the galaxy with nigh-impunity.
