Gas Masks

My foray into 20th Century body armor has hit protective masks, which are considered armor in GURPS.

They end up being a lot like helmets in that they have the same DR and about the same weight.

What I get to do is add in details like what filters they use and how much those cost and to make notes about tanker/aviator versions of things.

  1. Do you have data on hazardous materials in older filters or a modifier for expired filters? From reading some gas mask collector's blogs both are concerns.

    1. The site I'm using to get most of my GURPS stats mentions all the horrific things in the filters.
