Using a format of standard equipment selections as presented in Green Ronin's Agents of Oblivion, I've provided similar thoughts on some standard loadouts for the Savage Odyssey Prime campaign, based on mission type. My initial thoughts on the subject are as follows:

These loadouts will not survive contact with the players, of course. Within a few weeks, I'm sure each will end up overhauled, as the needs of the game in motion have impact on the realities behind these loadouts. If I remember, I'll post updates to this, should that come to pass.
Hope This Helps,

I'm not sure what era your campaign is set in, but it seems likely that a modern or futuristic loadout would combine the digital audio recorder/digital camera/notebook computer/PDA into one widget - even now a smartphone or iPad-alike can do all of those.
If you're going for a 1990s/80s campaign setting, then ignore me, obviously!
Excellent point! I will make those adjustments in the growing Player's Guide I'm putting together for my game. While the original core rulebook is set in 2006-7 (with an impact date of 2012), I think updating it to five years from the campaign start gives it better context, and that makes such a substitution a pretty smart idea.
With Regards,
