Str Crutchers made affordable, and balanced.

your idea of making plate armor better is good, but your intentions are wrong. You want to make it cheaper too?
plate is OP already, it should be unaffordable to balance it

[Over]

The idea is to make it a lot heavier, rather than more expensive, for the sake of balance. Imagine if tincans were 2/3 their current speed. I think It would be fine.

juuuuust sayin'

Back in Medieval times plate armor is made ​​so knight could quite comfortably move and fight sometimes for several days - in the case of siege or something. The notion that people have used it was almost impossible to move in that armor is wrong. A full suit of medieval plate is thought to have weighed little more than 60 lb (27 kg), on average lighter than the equipment often carried by today's armies which averages at around 90 lb (40 kg).

Would it be CHEAP to Make though?
YES. And this would apply to Medieval smiths too.

False?


And 15 more weight does not compensate for 20k less cost...

I personally don't think there should be any more incentives to strength crutch :/

It's just a sugquestion. As for realism, I don't see anything wrong with armor where made by a cheapers smith, where more metal is a substiture for skill.

How about...

no ?

how about a battered milanese?  put some dents n rust on the model from now,  keep its weight but give it

Requirement:16 strength
Weight:25.5
Shop price:31,632 gold
Body armor:56
Leg armor:15

for 20k?

its still plate stat wise,  would actually make sense balance wise  if you take a look at the shop,  and would add rp and variety to the field.
