Bubblegum Crisis
[The Hardsuits ]

Bubblegum Crisis's big idea, it is naturally the invention of these armors High Tech that wear the team of Knight Sabers! Sober and particularly functional, these armors of fight or HARDSUITS are adapted to the morphology, to the missions of everyone of the girls though they possess quite an identical base.

Created originally by the Professor STINGRAY to give to a human being the force of a BOOMER, maybe to counter the creature if it had to rebel against his creator, it is his daughter, SYLIA who will to take up the gauntlet after its murder.

Most interessant - and the strangest in this series - is SYLIA's capacity to improve ceaselessly this hardsuits. How can she indeed succeed, there where Genom has trouble finalizing Boomers as high as Knights Sabers?

Naturally, there is the money. If Knights Sabers is hirelings and charges their services, it is to be able to re-inject these currencies in the Research and development. But the money is not big thing without one or several brains which go with. Some estimate that SYLIA would even be she Boomer, sort of supercomputer which would allow to face the tremendous intellectual challenge which represents the update of these armors.

So, one knows can of things on the system of primary power which has to feed these armors. One speaks about Liquid Metal Battery ! Concerning material, one knows about it a little more: It is about fibers polymeres, of " polymer-resin " applied in layers to constitute armors, 8 for example for LINNA instead of the normal 10.

These materials, doubtless mixed in the ceramic and in the special miscellanies allow to resist to lasers and offer an optimal protection. But the main thing is naturally the armament integrated into armors, different according to the capacities of fight of every young ladies:

-SYLIA STINGRAY'S HARDSUIT: Of white, blue colour, this armor which can fly permanently and possesses two hands mechanized, is equipped with two artillery disrupteurs of particles arranged in every forearm, and one very interessante vibro-blade installed in its right hand.

-NENE ROMANOVA'S HARDSUIT: Of pink and blue colour, she possesses only a thin cannon with energy to attack and to defend itself. Most interessant is the system of communications and satellite connections.

-LINNA YAMAZAKI'S HARDSUIT: Of clear and orange-coloured green colour, she is quite directed to the mobility, the speed and the suppleness. Armed with two ribbons which can cut the steel as the butter, she also has an explosive fist - or Knuckle Bomber - in the right hand.

-PRISS ASAGIRI'S HARDSUIT: Unmistakably, the most powerful of all Hardsuits. Equipped of boosters, with a mechanical hand with sound before right hand, she arranges of one standard disrupteur particles as well as one very surprising artillery with sting.

One will count two generations of these armors (MARK I and MARK II).
