Brigandine

Brigandine armor consists of a cloth or leather garment, lined with small oblong steel plates set inside or between layers, and riveted to the fabric. Designs may include sleeves or be worn with vambraces. The rivets or nails attaching the plates to the fabric are visible on the outside and often decorated. Brigandine is typically worn over a padded undergarment; if worn without this undergarment, brigandine provides an Armor Class of 14 at a weight of 20 pounds. This type of armor would also include armors with small plates attached to the outside of a quilted or padded garment. Stats: cost 80 gp • weight 30 lbs • AC 15.
