Here are some pics I scanned of some armor that we should see in the GCW. Some of them we're already seen, but I leftthem in the pics:

Beyond the ST armor, why not give us the Desert ST bicep? Let us have our cold ST armor. Scout armor and storm commando armor are in the game for NPC's, why not PC's? The Radiation Trooper armor (Radtroopers) is silver and looks very cool. The seatroopers are fairly useless (no underwater stuff yet), but I left them in there.Besides, we already have those silly green scout troopers.

The Emperor's Royal Guards? How about for top-ranked factional players? The army troops have neat armor too, maybe for low-ranked players. CompForce is separate from the military, but still, it's different armor. Zero-G armor would be neat for JTLS and the Coruscant Guard armor? Please, I'd kill for a suit of this stuff.

This is the armor worn by most Rebel Specforce infiltrators. Not the stupid red and green Christmas armor they wear in the game.

This is a modified ST armor used by Warlord Zsinj's troopers after the fall of the Empire. Sure, it's out of timeline, but so are A-wings. (source: West End Games Star Wars RPG Cracken's Threat Dossier)
I didn't post a lot of Rebel armor because they simply didn't have anything other than the simple blast vests and helmets worn by the Rebel Fleet Troopers (The guys on the Tantive IV at the beginning of A New Hope).
Maybe we can see SOMETHING new sometime soon? Even Clonetrooper armor and/or ARCtrooper armor would be very cool. How about the Naboo Military dress like they're supposed to.
Oh, and can someone explain to me how SOE thinks this is supposed to be Star Wars when you can't dress like Star Wars?

#1 A-Wings were in very limited production during this timeframe. The prototypes saw action just prior to the battle of Yavin. I'll whip the geek books out and go nerd on your butt if you don't believe me 
#2 Reb armor = hawt
#3 Coruscant Guard armor = even more then #2
If we could have the standard faction armor plus the two mentioned above that would be great. Of course the weaponsmiths would complain that they don't have new weapons to make since we got the godly RIS and they only got 5 special loot schematics

That'd be fun stuff to add.
Developers...please please. Small additions like this go a FAR FAR way.

excelent post, I'd love a suit of that imperial navy special armour, or ideally some of admiral veers stuff he wore in the at at. If im a pistoleer who has to stand at the back I might as well wear the arour of an officer who would stand at the back if he has any sense.
If the rebels get that armour will they start creeping around inthe dark with trinoculars on and being all stealthy and will the splinter cell dev sue? seriously though it would be cool if the rebs got some more armour and that would suit them down to the ground, being sneaky tipes rather than robocop stormies.

Very cool, any of these would be welcome additions...a way to make the GCW much more Star Warsy.
