The Armored Legion’s Bastion Plate is among the rarest and most respected pieces of human engineering. Each suit takes months to forge in orbital foundries, requiring alloys sourced from multiple star systems and precision assembly by master artisans. Because of its immense cost and complexity, Bastion Plate is reserved for the Legion’s elite — soldiers who’ve survived years of service and proven themselves indispensable to the Concord’s campaigns. To be issued one is more than an honor; it’s the Concord declaring you are the weapon. Those who wear it describe the sensation as unnatural — the armor feels alive, locking seamlessly to muscle and bone, turning every motion into amplified strength while dampening fatigue. It doesn’t just protect the wearer; it reshapes them into something greater.
