Armour Uniform
This article is timeless and should be accurate for any version of the game.
The Armour Uniform is a type of uniform that's designed to give the wearer additional protection against enemy fire, at the cost of additional encumbrance. Unlike other uniforms, the Armour Uniform adds encumbrance when worn. The only two ammo types that stack in the uniform are 8mm and .44 (3 per slot).
Upon death, this uniform is permanently destroyed and cannot be recovered. Warden players are unable to equip any uniform that belongs to the Colonials, and visa versa.
Description
The Armour Uniform is an equippable uniform designed to increase the survivability of their wearers, at the expense of speed and mobility by adding encumbrance, which is unique to this type of uniform. Each faction has their type of armour uniform, which has their own unique buffs, affecting their play style.
The primary benefits are reducing incoming small arms damage at range (with falloff), and reducing bleed chance.
Tactics
Due to the added encumbrance of the Armour Uniform, it is very useful for open top vehicle crews (Field Guns, Half-Track gunner, etc) where the crew is extremely vulnerable to infantry attacks. This also applies to Tripod users, as being stuck in a static firing arc makes you vulnerable to flanking infantry.
