'''Exo-armour''' was is a type of heavy armour, comparable to [[Terminator Armour]], that was used by the [[Squat]]s. It was built by the Squat Engineers Guild.
==Construction==
Exo-armour was is a form of powered armour. The extensive protection it provided was especially useful when fighting in confined spaces where movement was restricted and it was difficult to avoid concentrated enemy fire. Exo-armour was thus greatly valued by Squats, who often find themselves in combat in subterranean tunnels.
Exo-armour also served as an all-enclosing hostile environment suit. The development of Exo armour was spurred by the inhospitable nature common to the Squat homeworlds.
