Weapons
Bolters
All Bolters are capable of Rapid Fire, which is a full action. As a full action, someone armed with a bolt weapon can fire up to its Rapid Fire number in shots at the cost of an Equipment Point. They also have clips; reloading is a free action until the clip is exhausted at which point the reload time indicated must be taken. Rapid Reload reduces this number.

Bolt Gun

Armor
Space Marine Power Armor
Some of the most technically advanced combat equipment in the galaxy, Power Armor is a combination of a neurally-linked servo-motor network, ceramic-alloy plates, and sophisticated electronics and environment systems. Fundamentally, it turns those it protects into walking tanks, though the physical demands of wearing such equipment, even with its servo-motor assist, makes it all but impossible for the strongest warriors.
Armor 5, causes no penalty to agility when worn by a Space Marine, sophisticated electronic equipment that provides additional information at the GM's option. Move Silent or Concealment is next to impossible in such armor. Intimidate tests gain a considerable bonus.
Carapace Armor
High-strength polymer and flex-titanium layers make for a durable and relatively light impact absorption system. When worn only over vital body parts, it also allows for flexibility and stealth.
Armor 3, 10% agi penalty, allows for use of stealth and concealment
