I never thought Warhammer was that original to be honest, it's a mash up of mythology and borrowing from other places. Not that it's bad, just not exactly original.

I'm sure someone will tell me something original they came up with, I don't follow it closely enough to know. But to a casual observer they seem to take inspiration from many sources.

In games it is Star Warrior, the player is a member of the Furies, a mercenary group that uses small groups of operatives in powered armor. Game is from 1980.

But in literature it was E. E. Smith's Lensman series, (published from 1937 onwards), that contained the earliest conceptualization of personal armour with both defensive and offensive capabilities for all environments.

Battle Dress

The ultimate in individual protection, Battle Dress is an advanced and powered version of combat armor. Battle dress enhances the strength and senses of individuals wearing it with variable feedback personal controls, servopowered limbs, and various kinds of electronic assistance. Battle dress is somewhat bulky, but is roughly man-sized. In addition to the enhanced strength, the suit usually has several pieces of equipment built in, including short range communicators, life support systems, and sensor enhancements.
