: * Great Helm grants additional +1 AC to non-adjutant attacks.

''These giant power armors seemingly have no head, its bulbous body nevertheless evoking image of barrel chested superhumans.  They carry all sorts of powerful weapons.''

Specific units equipped with specialized [[Ultra TA-01 Power Armor (3.5e Equipment)|Ultra TA-01 Power Armor]] suits, these soldiers are wrapped in mundiron and trained to hunt down the forces of dangerous magic beings with their mundane abilities.  Their powerful mundiron weapons are super effective against these spellcasting hazards, and their armor suits are nearly invulnerable to any of their more mundane adversaries.  Here are three different common types, though thanks to their exotic training they are often found with unique weapons such as shotels, bladed whips, and other strange devices.

Three example pilots, a scout, a fighter, and a warblade were used for these.  They are level 6, but have been granted additional HD as part of their special training.

These ultra suits are about 9 feet tall and weigh 2000 lbs.

=== Combat ===

Highly battle trained soldiers, these troopers rarely fight alone and always seek the tactical advantage.  Though they have the abilities to stand up against many dangerous foes, they still rely on powerful weaponry and items to bring them through.

'''Death Throes {{Ex}}:'''  The owners of these ultra troopers is loath to see this powerful technology end up in enemy hands.  When the wielder of the suit would be reduced to below 0 hp, they may eject as an immediate action 100 ft away in a random direction and the suit self destructs.  The suit may also self destruct either on an external command or usually a timed deadman's switch.  The suit explodes into an extraordinary ''[[SRD:Fireball|fireball]]'' that deals 15d6 fire damage, DC 20 [[Reflex]] for half damage.  The suit, and any equipment it was carrying, is reduced to molten slag.  Equipment which is removed from the grip of the suit survives.  If the suit is suffering from dazing via its [[EMP Vulnerable (3.5e Flaw)|EMP Vulnerable]] flaw, the death throes is held off until the condition is removed.  The self destruct system can be disabled with a DC 25 Disable Device check.

'''Slight Build {{Ex}}:'''  The ultra trooper's physical stature lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category smaller. Whenever they are subject to a size modifier or special size modifier, they are treated as one size smaller if doing so is advantageous to them. They can use weapons designed for a creature one size smaller without penalty. However, their space and reach remain those of a creature of their actual size. The benefits of this feat stack with the effects of powers, abilities, and spells that change the subject’s size category.

==== Lite ====

'''Effective Scout:'''  The lite ultra trooper has the BAB, saving throws, and skills of a scout<sup>CAdv</sup> of their level, and the class features of a 6th level scout.

'''Evasion {{Ex}}:'''  As the [[rogue]] class feature.

'''Flawless Stride {{Ex}}:'''  The lite ultra trooper can move through any sort of terrain that slows movement (such as undergrowth, rubble, and similar terrain) at their normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment.  This ability does not let them move more quickly through terrain that requires a Climb or Swim check to navigate, nor can they move more quickly through terrain or undergrowth that has been magically manipulated to impede motion.

'''Skirmish {{Ex}}:'''  The lite ultra trooper has the skirmish ability of a scout<sup>CAdv</sup>, dealing an additional +2d6 damage and gaining +1 competence bonus to AC when moving at least 10 ft.

'''Trackless Step {{Ex}}:'''  As the [[druid]] class feature.

'''Trapfinding {{Ex}}:'''  As the [[rogue]] class feature.

'''Uncanny Dodge {{Ex}}:'''  As the [[barbarian]] class feature.

==== Standard ====

'''Effective Fighter:'''  The standard ultra trooper has the BAB, saving throws, and skills of a [[SRD:Fighter|fighter]] of their level, and the class features of a 6th level fighter.

==== Jumpman ====

'''Battle Ardor {{Ex}}:'''  The jumpman ultra trooper gains an insight bonus equal to their [[Intelligence]] bonus on rolls made to confirm critical hits.

'''Battle Clarity {{Ex}}:''' As long as they are not flat-footed, the jumpman ultra trooper gains an insight bonus equal to their [[Intelligence]] bonus on [[Reflex]] saves.

'''Effective Warblade:'''  The jumpman ultra trooper has the BAB, saving throws, and skills of a warblade<sup>ToB</sup> of their level, and the class features of a 6th level warblade.
