We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels. |

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

Having looked through the list I know what I want to read next, The Forever War.
It peaked my interest when they said "time dilation".

It's a great book. There are two sequels as well if you like the first one. I haven't read them -- just not got around to it.
In some ways it reads like a satire of Starship Troopers but apparently it wasn't written as such.

That's the cover art for the copy of Armor I've got.
Jeez it's an old one.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

What the heck is Gundam doing in there? Sure they are called "suits" but they aren't power armor, they're "
MECHA"!
Otherwise a cool list. I read "Forever War" back in high school, but somehow forgot about power armor. Have to go back and read it again. I also was pleasantly surprised to see the inclusion of "Armor". I've read it twice now, but I didn't realize it had such a wide readership.

I don't know why I never actually thought of Iron Man as "Power Armor"... but it makes perfect sense.

My thoughts exactly, there is no possible way these could be mistaken for powered armour
Still the list was really good.
