Get hold of the "Maximum Metal" supplement for Cyberpunk 2020. It has pretty
good design rules for powered suits and I had no trouble integrating them
into my Traveller campaign.
Just be careful about what you let your players get their hands on: The
armour that my Imperial Marines wander around in shrugs off most ammo under
20mm, and has built in a 7.62 minigun, a 30mm rifle, and an auto grenade
launcher ( among other goodies ). And if they need more firepower they can
always carry a FGMP ( except of course that since the armour gives them
about 10x strength it can be rather larger that the average FGMP :-)
