History & Background (Dossier)

Energy weapons grow increasingly advanced during the TL:10-12 epoch culminating in the PGMPs and FGMPs of the future. Reflec does a more effective job of defending against energy weapons than the earlier TL-9 Ablat Personal Armor. The armor continues to develop after TL-10, increasing in effectiveness and decreasing in weight. [3]
