While primarily thought of as a combat system for Leading Edge's Rhand Morningstar Missions RPG, the original Phoenix Command rules were also intended to be used for man-to-man skirmish wargaming, either on the tabletop or a hex map.
HEAVY METAL is the complete sourcebook for Power Armor, and is fully compatible with both the Living Steel Adventure Game and the Phoenix Command Combat System. The capabilities of eleven different types of Power Armor from the Seven Worlds, the Starguild, and the Dragoncrests are described, as well as dozens of weapons and a set of special rules for tracking damage to Power Armor suit systems. Included are:- Power Armor Capabilities and Systems
- Special Power Armor Glancing, Hit Location, and Damage Rules
- Status Sheets for all 11 Power Armor Types
- Flechette, Slivergun, Gauss Gun, Lase, and Explosive Weapon Battlepacks
- Over Two Dozen Auxiliary Packs
