* Not exactly villainous but Valkyries in the ''{{Macross}}'' verse can equip Armored Packs. Aside from giving more protection, they also carry [[MacrossMissileMassacre more missiles]]. And as [[MacrossFrontier Ozma]] demonstrates, Armored Valkyries are [[LightningBruiser every bit as fast]] as their regular brethren.


Added DiffLines:

* ''DawnOfWar: Dark Crusade'' has Mega Armored Nobz for the Orks. While they are rather slow they can surge the armor to go faster, [[CastFromHitPoints electrocuting themselves in the process due to shoddy construction]].

** All this does, in practice, is give them more health. They're also quite hard to hit with your weapons (as most guards are). Your best bet is disarming them (particularly satisfying in Brotherhood, where you can throw the axe/huge sword ''right into their torso'') and using their weapon against them, or countering with your hidden blade. Which, yes, stabs right through their metal armour on a few particular finishers. Admittedly, some times, Ezio may just be stabbing them through the eyehole. And right into the brain.
