[IC] Power Armor for Senior Knights

[Spades_Neil]

Attention my Brothers,

After much discussion with the Head Scribe and Head Knight, I have considered the possibility of reducing the minimum rank required for power armor to Senior Knight. Therefore I will host this discussion over the network terminals. Please write your opinions of having the Senior Knights equipped with power armor.

If we go through with this, here are the pros and cons.

Pros: Our base would be more effectively defended, and Senior Knights could be used on occasion for external operations.
Cons: Less experienced troops wearing our armor would mean that should they be in a combat situation, they are more likely to be harmed and in the process lose the valuable armor.

If it is decided that the armor is to be expanded to Senior Knights, they will use T-45d just like the Junior Paladins do. We have an ample supply of this old but effective model.

Steel be with you,
Elder Lawrence Sumner Neil

Senior Paladin Titus here.
The cons can be fixed by the Paladins themselves, if we enable Paladins to train the Knights to combat effectiveness, we'll likely reduce that con.  I'm all for it, the safty of the bunker and research is my top concern.

Most Knights have been around power armour and repaired it, in some ways i believe we are more skilled in the repairing of the armour than Paladins. We do not how ever know how to use the armour effectivly due to lack of experiance, and i suggest that those cleared for the usage should be trained to a high standard by our Paladins.

// Note, Knights shouldnt be repairing high tech such as Power Armor otherwise it wouldnt make sense for the Scribes to be repairing the salvaged power armor for use.  Theres servo motors and such in the armor and its just too advanced for Knights.

Head Scribe here
On a slightly seperate note apart from that I agree with Titus.
Knight Adam Jones, why arnt you a scribe?  You do have knowledge over Power armor and I am curious as to how you have that knowledge, I thought Knights were only stuck to maternance of pre-war equipment and the base and other defencive protocals.
On topic,
Paladins need to train the Knights in combat uses and how to utilize in the armor effectively.

// There's a difference between repairing a suit of armor and basically rebuilding a suit that has been gutted of all its electronics. Just so you know. Let's keep the OOC brief now. <3

// More on it later I guess.  I understand minor repairs which is fine but large repairs such as repairing the Motors and hydrolic shit would just be too complex.
