Paraphernalia; Although Rhodes is no longer active as War Machine, he possesses a prototype copy of the War Machine armor, and once donned one of its gauntlets to grant himself superhuman strength. His old suit of War Machine armor was equipped with jet boots, a laser sword, repulsor rays, energy cannons, a uni-beam, a rocket launcher, targeting computer and scanning devices, and could be modified in the field for additional weapons.
Rhodes briefly wore a suit of Eidolon Warwear armor, a living suit of armor which rested inside of his body, and could encase him at a moment's notice. The armor duplicated many of the abilities of the War Machine armor, including flight, energy blasts and sensors, but could also "grow" drones which could be used for combat and delivery operations and interface with computers. The armor would react to Rhodes' emotional state, transforming itself to provide him with whatever weapons he might desire.
