Is there a detailed diagram that shows exactly what each piece of armour is for as apposed to just the names?
(Around mark 7-ish
)
I've seen one where its a bunch of techno-babble such as: "Armour systems panels", "Armoured Umbilicals/Power Feeds"
This example is based originally off the Jes Goodwin 8' tall marine drawing.
As an example, (and bear with me here) the "Armoured Umbilicals/Power Feeds" are the three tubes that run from the belt up the abdomen into the chest, in the Jes Goodwin drawing they are covered entirely with a peice of armour,(you can see them in this image with the three horizontal lines) my question in this case being: How does this marine rotate at the waist if he has a solid peice of armour that takes away the flexibility of the free hanging tubes?
or an example of a fairly ideal answer:
The "Armoured flexible seals" between each joint: What are those made out of? How do they operate?
On the models they are represented like triangles (accordion style) that communicate folds as if its a fabric-like material, in other situations they show it as more rigid and square oriented 90degree angles which would imply a solid metal-like material scaling one over the next, which is the right one?
Answer from steam forum: "The armoured bodyglove, and atificial muscle fibers that connect the plates". A little brief but still leaves me wanting little.
I hope I'm just not noticing a really obvious resource right under my nose. A very specific request but if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.
