Speaking from personal experience on Test, an encounter with the PPD Transcendants (boss versions of the Awakened) can be a very painful encounter. 
Gotta love the Hill Street Blues references, including Chief Conrad Bochco. 
(Any chance we can get a ratty looking detective named Beltzer calling gang member hairbags?)
Nice shout out to the Father of the modern cop show: Stephen Bochco.
I can hear the Hill Street Blues music as I type this.

Nice one, Artic.
I knew that you were gonna give us Heroes cops we can actually look upon with pride, but Mecha-driving and KHELDIAN cops?
Wow.
<jaw drops>
<looks at own powers>
...
Any chance I can be a cop? <@_@>; I promise I won't break the toys-errr....
I mean equipment! <^________^>
As much as I think these guys are cool they seem to trivialize the need for actual heroes. Or at least, as MANY heroes as are present in Paragon City.
I would have instead implemented mob group Supergroups of heroes for these missions.
Well, don't forget, those giant robots are just "bosses". The heroes my villain encounters are "elite bosses" or "heroes" when grouped.
So... how is THE Blue Shield (Trainer in King's Row) associated with the "blue shield" PPD?
If he isn't... Come on! He needs some personality! He needs something!!! He's a joke in the CoH trainer world!
Thanks for eight fun years, Paragon.
Yeah, I'm thinking that, at the very least, ol' Blue needs to be one of the various Heroes that come after villains in Mayhem Missions, especially the ones in Kings Row. >_>
No idea what powers he is, but using Council Ascendent shield powers would probably be included..

This needs to happen.
Arc# 92382 -- "The S.P.I.D.E.R. and the Tyrant" -- Ninjas! Robots! Praetorians! It's totally epic! Play it now!
Arc # 316340 -- "Husk" -- Azuria loses something, a young woman harbors a dark secret, and the fate of the world is in your hands.

It's Blue Steel.
"So the commissioner called in a number of favors with local heroes, including the former policeman Blue Steel, and a city-wide manhunt was undertaken."
From:
Gears, ratchets, sockets, and springs.

Oh, snap, Kheldian cops!
I am aghast with glee hero side, horrified villain side.
"Stop that purse snatcher!"

I preferred his original tagline:
"Let's do it to them, before they do it to us."
Arctic, that was a great write up about the PPD, can't wait to take these guys on in COV. Should be fun.
Wow, nice!
I'm strongly considering mugging one of those Kheldian cops for a Kheld sash, though...

To the best dev team ever: I enjoyed meeting you all at the Summits and best of luck in all your future endeavors.

[/ QUOTE ]He's a former policeman now? The Blue Shield exploration badge says he's the only hero that works directly for the police.
I really hope he shows up in a mission soon, because that'll mean the devs are working on Shield powers.
Pretty good, but can we drop the full face mask with goggles? It makes them look too much like Council troops.

Just so everyone knows... the The Awakened officer costume can be copied almost exactly minus the sash and the PPD emblem and looks surprizingly good I might add.
Hm, am I the only one that read "Officers strap themselves into mechanical combat exoskeletons" and immediately thought of a K11 or K12s? Especially with the next sentence using the term "hard suit" (even though the K11/K12 aren't really hardsuits), I thought it'd be kinda hard not to think of BGC.
Tech support IRL, CLR/DRU/MED/WHM/PRI/DEF. Hmm, I sense a pattern...

I cannot wait to take my Nictus into Mayhem Missions and kill Peacebringer cops! Mwuhahahaha!
The Paragon Police Department, or the blue shield as they are colloquially known, is a long established institution of Paragon City. Although its origins trace back to the turn of the century, it has gone through several evolutions as the needs of the city have changed.
