This would be a good time to point out that the US Government seriously did consider nuking the moon during the Cold War as a show of force. Project A119.
"A large explosion on the Terminator line would put the sun behind the mushroom cloud, making the explosion visible with the naked eye from Earth."
Then the US decided they'd just send in Neil Armstrong to land on it. Neil Armstrong - the one man on the earth that was considered a suitable replacement for a nuclear missile.
Lets say you start out campaign with your standard-issue Mark V. As you progress through campaign, hidden KIA Spartans can give you armor upgrades. All you do is simply take a piece of their armor and add it to yours. Here is what I had in mind:
Head
Standard-Issue helmet- standard perks
v
Medium Plated helmet- damage taken to the head is reduced by 10%
v
Heavy Plated helmet- damage taken to the head is reduced by 20%
Chest
Standard-Issue chest piece- standard perks
v
Medium Plated chest piece- damage taken to the chest is reduced by 10%
v
Heavy Plated chest piece- damage taken to the chest is reduced by 20%
Arms
Standard-Issue gauntlets- standard perks
v
Steel gauntlets- Damage done by mele increased by 5%
v
Titanium-A gauntlets- Damage done by mele incresed by 10%
Legs
Standard-Issue legs- standard perks
v
Tiger-class legs- Speed incresed by 5%
v
Cheetah-class legs- Speed increased by 10%
So that's what I came up with. Anyone else like it?
