The latest addition to the series, Weapons of Power Armor Destruction 4 continues the tradition established in previous volumes, and brings us more new options and equipment.

This time out we open with Skin Suits: a new sub category of small power armor. It doesn't offer the Strength boost of other suits, but does have the benefit of being able to be hidden under bulky clothing.

There is a new superstructure in the form of high tech, high powered smart light. In addition, three options for customizing your suits superstructure are provided: garage built, g-ride (for when you need a little bling)and sexualized power armor.

Several new types of armor are provided, from the organic cellulose material, to the extra heavy protection of dark matter foam.

New power cores run the gamut from bio-diesel engines with limited running time, to the effectively unlimited power of the inertial winder. For added spice there is the kirllian aura tap - which gets its juice by sucking it directly from the armor's wearer.

Three new sensor systems provide new ways of seeing things. In addition to the powerful blindsight suite, a new drone and dropable cameras provide a way to get a look at things without heading in yourself.

Point defense lasers and chaff launchers are classic defense systems, while the medical diagnosis array would seem to more properly belong with the miscellaneous gear.

The weapons section presents several powerful and unique means with which to wreak havoc upon one's enemies. The most distinctive of these offerings are gauntlets which contain a black hole, and a weapon which teleports its payload directly into your target. As with the defense listings, the mind breaker array would seem a better fit in the miscellaneous section.

The miscellaneous equipment provides some interesting options, which includes such offerings as an internet connection that hooks straight into the pilot's brain, animal brains in a jar and an incredibly advanced cloud of nanites.<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: Even more stuff, with several unique offerings.<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: The green headings still look awful on my screen.

While amusing, and they do have precedent in various sources, the G-Ride and Sexualized options aren't something I really see the need to provide statistics for.

Despite the high PL requirements on some of the equipment, GMs might want to keep a close eye on some of the options, and carefully compare them to other available equipment before letting them in the game.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Very Good<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>
