 Guides: Mechassault 2 Lone Wolf (Xbox)
Battlesuits come with the ability to "neurohack" enemy battlemechs, which results in an instant kill for your team (the ejected enemy pilot dies on impact with the ground), however the process can be quickly quashed by application of quick reflexes or by a special ability.
Battlesuits, while annoying and sometimes lethal to 'mechs, are also very fragile due to their small stature.
Battlesuits are not to be underestimated -- they can kill a novice mechwarrior in less than five seconds if the mechwarrior is not aware of the "button pushing mini-game" he must engage in when neurohacked.

The Empire requested proof of the battlesuit's capabilities, so Gentry said he would prove it was the perfect combat suit by testing it in battle against Captain America, the ultimate soldier.
Gentry was in despair, but finally came up with the idea of selling the battlesuit to the Avengers to prevent it from falling into the hands of their enemies.
First, the battlesuit served as defensive armor, it was highly resistant to damage, so much so that even small explosions of nitroglycerin did relatively little damage to it, and failed to harm its wearer whatsoever.

The battlesuit Zak inherited was created for an evil galactic dictator known as LORD DREADNITE, so called because he is the greatest cause of nightmares in the known galaxy.
Dreadnite forced a brilliant alien scientist, DR. H’DRERION, to create the battlesuit and Bio Brain by holding the poor inventor’s entire world hostage with the threat of a MUTARA attack—sort of a swarm of cosmic locusts at the dark lord’s command.

XV-96 Smart Battlesuits were introduced to add mobile fire support to Tau armies in difficult situations where neither XV-88 Broadside Battlesuits nor the Hammerhead Gunships were useful.

This was only made possible through minimising armour and support systems so the battlesuit could cope with the heavy weaponry.

 [40k Minis][Pics] Tau battlesuit with camouflage (work in progress). - RPGnet Forums
Make sure that the green stuff is a bit larger than you want it to end up, because you will then need to carve it into the correct shape (after it has had time to dry) - this is much easier and produces a smoother surface than trying to mould it while wet.
Finally carve a couple of lines into the suface with a knife or saw to give it the Tau patchwork plating look and you should have something quite acceptable (or at least something which compares favourably with the original).

A battlesuit weapon system is a weapon mounted on a battlesuit.
I believe the phrase "Hard-wired systems allow Tau without a battlesuit to benefit from some support systems normally only mounted on a battlesuit." refers to other optional hardwires such as drone controllers and flsun filters and possibly the target lock.
Even if the markerlight can be considered as a battlesuit weapon, which I can see a little bit of an arguement for, a pulse rifle/carbine is definitely not.
