About the Body Armour... would people be comfortable with Bumblebee keeping it as a permanent upgrade, or should she be forced to drop it at some point?

Since I was going to have brick grab it after the hostages were all gone... I say that for [u]this fight[/u], the armor provides the [b]Armored[/b] status effect, granting a +5 to [color=0076a3]defense[/color] for 3 rounds OR She gains +3 to defense for 3 attacks with a -1 for each attack she is targeted by until +0. If she wants to incorporate it into her flight suit later, then she can spend the XP and raise her defense. 

Perhaps GM will let her buy the increase at half if she sacrifices the item at time of character upgrade. Hmm this makes me think of ways that would make purchasable items from A.E.G.I.S. for missions like our own smoke bombs or the like.
