Legendary Plate Mail Armors
Over the ages, planar
beings and powerful mortals
alike have passed through
the city of New Tanaan.
Some of these visitors wore
armors of unimaginable
craftsmanship and beauty.
The blacksmiths of New
Tanaan have learned some of
| the techniques used in the
crafting of several kinds
of legendary armors, yet it
is not often that one has
an opportunity to craft
such rare and valued
resources as the ones that
compose the armors of
legend.
Common Components
Regardless of the base
|
|
material that a suit of
plate armor is crafted from
there are common methods to
their crafting. Each piece
of armor requires a Full
Plate Mold of the armor
section being crafted, a
temper appropriate to the
metal being crafted, a
Tanaan Smithing Hammer to
work the metal in the
Tanaan Forges, a set of
| Superb Leather padding to
cushion the joints and
another to cushion the
armor against the body of
the wearer. The sheets of
metal used in the
construction of the armors
plates are hammered from a
brick or chunk of planar
metal with a Tanaan
Smithing Hammer and
tempered with a temper
|
|
appropriate to the metal
being worked. Three sheets
of metal are needed for a
breastplate or greaves, two
sheets of metal are needed
for vambraces, a helm,
gauntlets, or boots, and
one sheet of metal is
needed for a bracer.
