| — Specialist's Overcoat Description |
The Specialist's Overcoat (or Heavy Ammo Uniform) is a Uniform unique to the Wardens, with it specially designed to easily carry a larger amount of explosive ammo (not grenades or deployed weapons) without getting over-encumbered. Upon death, this uniform is permanently destroyed and cannot be recovered. Colonial players are unable to equip any uniform that belongs to the Wardens, and visa versa.
Description
The Warden Heavy Ammo Uniform, the Specialist's Overcoat, is an equippable uniform designed to reduce the Weight of any explosive ammunition (not grenades or deployed weapons) by 33.3% and lets them stack up to 2 per inventory slot. The uniform has 5 inventory slots, allowing the player to carry a maximum of 10 shells. Despite this tactic, it is not recommended to carry the max amount of shells since it is possible to die before using them all.
The backpack's vibrant color makes the Specialist's Overcoat very easily identifiable in the field, making the user a high-priority target for enemy tanks. Due to this, the uniform is generally not suited for an anti-tank role.
The primary purpose of this uniform is to easily carry large amounts of shells, which can aid in the supply for various equipment that need shells.

Storage
It does not stack in structure or vehicle inventories (1 per slot). It can only be stored in the stockpile of Bases (32k max).
It can't be packed into crates.
Crates of Specialist's Overcoat can be directly submitted to any item stockpile that accepts that item to transfer their content. The crates can also be stored in the crate stockpiles of Storage Depots (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Seaports (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Shipping Containers (60), or Storage Ships (1000).
It can be transported by almost any vehicle with inventory slots. However it is much more efficient to transport it in bulk amounts as crates, either delivering them to a Base's stockpile with a Truck or to a crate stockpile with shipping vehicles carrying Shipping Containers.
Trivia
- Visually, the Heavy Ammo Uniform is similar to the basic Soldier Uniform for the Wardens, but the backpack closely resembles an Australian 3-inch mortar bomb pack, and has a large amount of belt pouches
- The Colonials do not have a direct equivalent to the Heavy Ammo Uniform, but their asymmetrical counterpart is the Grenade Uniform
