Its an article used by todays militaries. The SAS and other special forces/sniper teams use them often. They are extremely heavy and dont offer any protection other than the camo aspect of it. Its basically a very thick blanket made from natural bushes, twigs, and grasses. Its covers the sniper from head to toe when prone and conceals them to the point you could stand on one and if trained well enough a sniper would not move.



Personally, I think its an awesome idea and would love to see something like this, even if was reserved for master status.

Wow!


I am soooooo looking forward to the day when I walk over a hill, see the bushes spawn right in front of my face, when suddenly......4 of them stand up and greet me!


That would be friggin awesome! Also agree that it and other clothing need some sort of actual abilities or bonuses. Armor is cool and all but I don't like looking like everyone else in the galaxy.


Great idea!




For Emperor and Empire!

Bio-engineers already have, in concept, components they can create for Tailors to build skillmod bonuses such as Camouflage into clothing. I don't recall offhand whether any Rifleman skillmods are represented, but when the BE components are actually fixed so that they work, you all might find the simplest route to be asking for Rifleman skillmods to be added to BE Tissue schematics, rather than asking for some whole new clothing system.

Yeah but if you get itBE''d you won't be able to look like a bush! I wanna attack PC's and if they CAN see you on the radar, if they don't fix the whole cover concept, then they will have to move their mouse over every little bush and tree just to find us...makes sense right? SNIPER.......What do they do? go out in the open and yell to let them know where you are, and then start shooting?

Ok, how about, a plain ghuille suit. It would add to the Rifleman concept. Should do stuff like make you harder to hit and have more chances for the enemy to not see you when you're attacking it. Basically, a ghullie suit should add something like cover and and conceal shot at one time. Jst an example and getting my idea written down.

In layman's terms - it's an article of clothing that makes you look like a bush with feet.

Dude!! That idea ROCKS!! I love it.


I would also like the idea of making them terrain specific....ie you have a Tatooine ghillie suit and a Naboo ghillie suit... and if you use the wrong one in the wrong terrain you get a huge minus to your camo skill. Could also give your opponent a bonus in spotting you... imagine that lush Nabooian bush sitting just outside Bestine on Tatooine....."hmm.... that doesn't look right...."


Sweet!
