…and not the usual “ouch, I fell down and hope the armor keeps me from breaking something” armor, Colombian clothier Miguel Caballero has a new line of ballistic and crash protection for motorcyclists…
This armor provides -4DC and soaks -1WL of damage (-2WL for impact involving a motorcycle crash.) It is heavy — the jacket, pants, and a good helmet mean about 25-30 lbs. of weight being carried. The gear looks like normal motorcycle wear, if a bit bulkier, and is CON -3 to be spotted by opponents. Cost: $5000

Not specifically related to the motorcycle armor (although it’s pretty damn cool that a 30 year old RPG is getting something this up to date!), but if you didn’t know it, as I didn’t until 10 minutes ago, someone is working on “our retro-clone of the old James Bond 007 rpg”. I don’t know anything about the rules he’s using, but he does have new art. It is called “Classified”.

Thought you’d might like to know.

I’ve been working on a version, as well, that has been held up by several professional and personal roadblocks. Was hoping to really get moving on it this month coming.
