I feel a bit uncertain about the penalties mercs incur for wearing them. I know that they cannot climb with backpacks, only with combat packs, and some packs indicate a stealth penalty (but most do not [?]).
Are there any other penalties which are NOT included in their description box? Like AP, stamina or stealth penalties... how reliable are these descriptions anyway? Can I assume that if a modifier is not listed, it's not in effect, or are they written separately and one can never be certain if the description box is 'up to date'?
There also seem to be rules concerning the amount of camouflage lost by wearing LBE stuff. I have noticed that items which have no positive camo modifier of their own decrease the overall value, which makes the principle clear enough, but the actual numbers elude me.
Is there any documentation available?
P.S.: Just noticed BACKPACKWEIGHT_LOWERS_AP (default: 5kg = -1AP), which is part of the answer. But it doesn't matter how much I stuff in my combat packs, right?]]>rummtata2014-05-02T12:58:15-00:00
