Designed orignially as protection against the vacuum of space and radiation during asteroid mining opperations, Exo-Armour quickly became standard equipment in a number of other hostile environments that Squat's were required to work in, including plasma reactor preasure chambers and chemical storage tanks. However, during the [[Age of Isolation]], the Squats could no longer rely on the protection of the [[Imperium]] and so were forced to adapt much of their technology, to create arms to stave off would be aggressors, and so Exo-Armour became a staple part of all Squat military forces.
constructed in an almost identical fashion to its closest Imperial counterpart, [[Terminator Armour]], Exo-Armour consists of a mobile exo-skeleton with heavy armour plating. The exo-skeleton is powered to carry the enormous weight of the armour, which would otherwith otherwise render the wearer immobile, if not crush them to death. Because of these motors , wearers of Exo-Armour are capable of lifting items which a regular man would find impossible and can weild wield weapons that other find extremely heavy, with great ease.
