RE: PA Strength was: FMAS at GZG ECC IV

Well, it depends on whether you like to have "realistic" games, where
you have to account for things like leverage, or "fantastic" games,
where
the special effects are more important than the laws of physics. In
other
words, who's stronger: A guy in a suit of powered armor, or the
Incredible Hulk?

You don't need to blow your suit if you just can lift the bricks. 
How much lifting etc. can a suit of power armour do ?
I would have thought at least a few hundred Kilos (a trained Weight 
Lifter can do that), perhaps even a ton or two (a light crane) ?
