Okay here is a strange one for you all, I'm trying to build the Extremis Armor from the recent Iron Man comics but not Tony Stark and the suit from the current Iron Man movie?

its the extremis VIRUS that gives tony superpowers without wearing armor
its not an exo- skeleton[ tony has a cybernetic nervous system]

For the most part it sounds like Tony bought his armor down from OIF to OIHID and bought some extra dex OIHID, plus some power ups and what have you...

Okay, how do I do the Extremis Virus then? I'm still curious, please advise.

with a nanotec based serum boosting the characters abilities 85 to 100%

The Extremis virus is a techno-organic virus that can have varying results depending on how it is “programmed”. As conceived, it was meant to be a Super-Soldier serum and grant the virus recipient a plethora of powers such as healing, super-speed, super-strength, super-endurance, ability to breath fire, and project electricity.

Here is a look of what the virus does! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkHItRwZf-M

I hope that helps, do you also what to have help on your armors?

From what I get on the extremis virus, by the link you provided you are looking for

REstrainable other than holds on some powers, and OIHID for others, some might have both limits

Otherwise it seems like normal Iron Man Powers (Flight, armor, Sensors, life support, Various attacks, etc...)

Here is what the Marvel Wiki denotes about the armor.

Powers

Iron Man employs his repulsors.Direct Cybernetic Interface: Extremis has fused Stark's armor to his body, allowing him to store the inner layers of the Iron Man armor in the hollows of his bones as well as control it through direct brain impulses. He has direct control over the communication devices, scanning equipment, and recording devices located in his helmet.

Wireless Communication: He is also able to remotely connect to external communications systems such as satellites, cellular phones, and computers throughout the world.
Improved Response Time: Because the armor's operating system is now directly connected to Stark's nervous system, its response time has been significantly improved.
Superhuman Reflexes: The Extremis armor grants him superspeed reactions.
Regenerative Systems: He has ability to heal himself and repair the armor.
Crystallized Iron Armor: The armor has evolved from a bulky iron suit to a molecularly aligned matrix of crystallized iron enhanced by magnetic fields over layers of other metals like titanium, creating a shell that is pliable, yet capable of amazing resilience and protection.

Flight: The armor can reach speeds in excess of Mach 8. This occurred in the comic "Iron Man Program Execute".
Power Cells: The suit is powered by a combination of solar converters, electrical batteries and an on-board generator that uses beta particle absorption as a fuel source.
Energy Conversion Power Recharge: The suit is also able to convert nearby energy sources, such as heat or kinetic energy into electricity, or even drain electrical energy directly into the batteries for recharge.
Self-Contained Life-Support System & Environmental Protection: The suit can be completely sealed for operations in vacuum or underwater, providing its own life support, and is shielded against radiation.


The weapons systems of the suit have evolved over the years, but Iron Man's standard offensive weapon has always been:

Repulsors: Concussive force that are fired from the palms of his gauntlets.
Other weapons built into various incarnations of the armor include:

Unibeam: Emits various types of light energy.
Lasers
Magnetism
Pulse Bolts: Concussive force blasts that pick up kinetic energy along the way, so that they hit harder the farther they have to travel.
Energy Shield


Abilities
Quite apart from the powers granted him by the suit, Stark is an inventive mechanical engineering prodigy, constantly creating new technology and looking for ways to improve it. Furthermore, this extends to his remarkable ingenuity dealing with difficult situations such as difficult foes and deathtraps where he is capable of using his available tools like his suit in unorthodox and effective ways. He is also extremely well-respected in the business world, able to command people's attentions when he speaks on economic matters by virtue of the fact that he is savvy enough to have, over the years, built up several multi-million dollar companies from virtually nothing. He is known for the loyalty he commands from and returns to those who work for him, as well as his impeccable business ethics. He also strives to be environmentally responsible in his businesses, and in one case, immediately fired an employee who made profitable (but illegal) sales to Doctor Doom.

When Stark was unable to use his armor for a period of time, he asked for some combat training from Captain America and has become quite physically formidable on his own when the situation demands it. As evidenced by his two serious bouts with alcoholism and subsequent recovery, Stark is possessed of tremendous strength of will, never giving up and often emerging from defeat even stronger. It is arguable that the true "iron man" is not the armor, but Stark himself.



Strength level
Without his armor Tony Stark possesses the normal strength of a normal human man his age, height, and build who engages in moderate regular exercise. The armor magnifies Stark's strength to superhuman levels, enabling him to lift (press) roughly 90 tons. If sufficiently powered by an outside source, the armor can achieve Class 100 strength.



Paraphernalia
Equipment: Iron Man wears a sophisticated suit of body armor containing various offensive weaponry. He has a number of suits aside from the current model. Some are mission-specific or prototypes for testing, others are older models kept for nostalgia or for research. As the multi-billionaire head of a global corporation, director of a global law enforcement/espionage agency, and a genius-level inventor, Stark can procure or develop additional technology as needed. Posesses the Reality Gem. Formerly, Avengers Identicard


He has developed a special briefcase to carry his armor in. A few models are too big for the case and require a separate module.
Transportation: When not traveling in his armor or using a Quinjet as an Avenger, Stark owns a number of vehicles. Some of them have been modified, such as a Ferrari capable of flight.
Weapons: Varies depending upon armor specifications.


--------------------------------------------

Extremis was developed to create new super-soldiers. It uses bioelectrics and nanites to force the body to rebuild itself into a more powerful form. Extremis is administered via injection.

It was leaked to domestic terrorists. Mallen took a dose and became a killing machine. Iron Man (Tony Stark) investigated and was severely injured. He then took a modified dose.


Although Extremis for reasons of simplicity is referred to as "a virus", it is not. The Extremis process involved injecting several billion microscopic nanotubes, which act as information carriers, into the brain.

The brain is then partly reprogrammed; the so-called "repair center", that part of the brain which maintains an "integrity map" of the body, is told that the body is wrong.

The physical reaction is that the entire body regrows itself, remaking itself per the Extremis instructions. Extremis itself, the original information package, is not involved; neither are "nanobots".

Depending upon the information programmed into the Extremis,it grants the user the defined catalogue of powers.

From what I see of Ironman, Tony wears a body suit under his armor. this suit is what is stored in the hollows of his bones, and not the armor itself. This "interface" suit essentially allows Tony to don the armor with greater speed in addition to being able to mentally access computer systems and such that he has set up to do so.

So out of the armor he's still relatively normal, save for enhanced recooperative abilities, man-machine interface with the armor, and boosted reflexes.

Then the rest are apart of the armor.


Personally I'm trying to figure out how to build a 350pt armored hero. with the skills needed to build the armor.
