Equipment
The basic coins are the copper piece (cp) and the silver piece (sp). These form the backbone
of the monetary system and are the coins most frequently found in the hands of the common
folk. Above these two coins is the much rarer gold piece (gp). This coin is seldom found in
common use and mainly exists on paper as the standard money of account. This means it is
used to measure the value of property and goods. Land values, ship cargoes, gemstones, and
penalty bonds (royal court fines) are normally calculated in gold pieces, although payment of
such vast sums normally takes other forms.

Banded: This armor is made of overlapping strips of metal sewn to a backing of leather and
chain mail. Generally the strips cover only the more vulnerable areas, while the chain and
leather protect the joints where freedom of movement must be ensured. Through straps and
buckles, the weight is more or less evenly distributed: Banded mail provides a damage resistance
of 2 against slashing and 1 against bludgeoning damage.
Brigandine: This armor is made from small metal plates sewn or riveted to a layer of canvas
or leather and protected by an outer layer of cloth. It is rather stiff and does not provide
adequate protection to the joints where the metal plates must be spaced widely or left off:
Brigandine provides a damage resistance of 1 against slashing and piercing damage.
Bronze plate mail: This is a plate mail armor--a combination of metal plates, chain mail or
brigandine, leather and padding--made of softer bronze. It is easier and cheaper to make
than steel armor, but it does not protect as well. A large breastplate and other metal plates
cover areas of the body, but the other materials must protect the joints and movable parts of
the body: Bronze plate provides a damage resistance of 2 against slasning and 1 against
bludgeoninng damage.
 9
Chain mail: This armor is made of interlocking metal rings. It is always worn with a layer
of quilted fabric padding underneath to prevent painful chafing and to cushion the impact of
blows. Several layers of mail are normally hung over vital areas. The links yield easily to
blows, absorbing some of the shock. Most of the weight of this armor is carried on the
shoulders and it is uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time: Chain mail provides a
damage resistance of 2 against slashing damage and 1 against piercing damage. However, it provides a
vulnerability of 2 against bludgeoning.
Field plate armor: This is the most common version of full plate armor, consisting of
shaped and fitted metal plates riveted and interlocked to cover the entire body. It includes
gauntlets, boots, and a visored helmet. A thick layer of padding must be worn underneath.
However, the weight of the suit is well-distributed over the whole body. Such armor
hampers movement only slightly. Aside from its expense, the main disadvantages are the
lack of ventilation and the time required to put it on and take it off. Each suit of field plate
must be individually fitted to its owner by a master armorer, although captured pieces can be
resized to fit the new owner: Field plate provides a damage resistance of 3 against slashing and 1
against piercing.
Full Plate: This is the impressive, full metal-style armor. It is perfectly forged and fitted. All
the plates are interlocking and carefully angled to deflect blows. The surfaces are normally
highly ornamented with etching and inlaid metals. Each suit must be carefully custom-fitted
to the owner and there is only a 20% chance that a captured suit can be refitted to a new
owner of approximately the same size. The metal plates are backed by padding and chain
mail. The weight is well-distributed. The armor is hot, slow to don, and extremely expensive.
Due to these factors, it tends to be used more for parades and triumphs than actual combat:
Full plate provides a damage resistance of 4 against slashing damage, and 3 against piercing damage.
Hide: This is armor prepared from the extremely thick hide of a creature or from multiple
layers of regular leather. It is stiff and hard to move in: Hide has a damage vulnerability of 2
against bludgeoning damage.
Leather: This armor is made of leather hardened in boiling oil and then shaped into
breastplate and shoulder protectors. The remainder of the suit is fashioned from more
flexible, somewhat softer materials: Leather armor has a damage resistence of 1 against piercing
damage, but a vulnerability of 2 against bludgeoning damage and 1 against slashing.
Padded: This is the simplest type of armor, fashioned from quilted layers of cloth and
batting. It tends to get hot and after a time becomes foul with sweat, grime, lice, and fleas:
Padded armor has a damage vulnerability of 2 against bludgeoning damage and 1 against piercing.
Plate mail: This armor is a combination of chain or brigandine with metal plates (cuirass,
epaulettes, elbow guards, gauntlets, tasets, and greaves) covering vital areas. The weight is
distributed over the whole body and the whole thing is held together by buckles and straps.
This is the most common form of heavy armor: Plate mail provides a damage resistance of 3
against slashing damage.
Ring mail: This armor is an early (and less effective) form of chain mail in which metal
rings are sewn directly to a leather backing instead of being interlaced: Ring mail provides a
damage resistance of 1 against slashing damage and piercing damage.
Scale mail: This is a coat and leggings (and perhaps a separate skirt) of leather covered with
 10
overlapping pieces of metal, much like the scales of a fish: Scale provides a damage resistance of
1 against slashing damage and piercing damage.
Shields: All shields improve a character's Armor Class by 1 or more against a specified
number of attacks. A shield is useful only to protect the front and flanks of the user. Attacks
from the rear or rear flanks cannot be blocked by a shield (exception: a shield slung across the
back does help defend against rear attacks). The reference to the size of the shield is relative
to the size of the character. Shield does not provide resistances bonuses.
A buckler (or target) is a very small shield that fastens on the forearm. It can be worn by
crossbowmen and archers with no hindrance. Its small size enables it to protect against only
one attack per melee round (of the user's choice), improving the character's Armor Class by 1
against that attack.
A small shield is carried on the forearm and gripped with the hand. Its light weight permits
the user to carry other items in that hand (although he cannot use weapons). It can be used to
protect against two frontal attacks of the user's choice.
The medium shield is carried in the same manner as the small shield. Its weight prevents the
character from using his shield hand for other purposes. With a medium shield, a character
can protect against any frontal or flank attacks.
The body shield is a massive shield reaching nearly from chin to toe. It must be firmly
fastened to the forearm and the shield hand must grip it at all times. It provides a great deal
of protection, improving the Armor Class of the character by 1 against melee attacks and by 2
against missile attacks, for attacks from the front or front flank sides.
Splint Mail: The existence of this armor has been questioned. It is claimed that the armor is
made of narrow vertical strips riveted to a backing of leather and cloth padding. Since this is
not flexible, the joints are protected by chain mail: Splint provides a damage resistance of 1
against slashing damage and 2 against bludgeoning damage.
Studded leather: This armor is made from leather (not hardened as with normal leather
armor) reinforced with close-set metal rivets. In some ways it is very similar to brigandine,
although the spacing between each metal piece is greater: Studded provides a damage resistance
of 1 against piercing and slashing damage.

Getting Into and Out of Armor

The time required to don armor depends on its make. Those armors that are a single piece—
leather tunics, robes, chain mail—take one round (two for metal items) to don with slight
assistance. Without aid, the time is doubled. Armor that is made of separate pieces require up
to seven rounds, again with assistance. Without help, the time required is tripled. In all cases,
the times given assume that the proper undergarments and padding are also worn.
Removing armor is a much quicker matter. Most can be shed in a single round. Piece armor
(particularly full plate) requires 4 rounds. However, if the character is willing to cut straps
and bend pins, such armors can be removed in half the time round up.

"ROF" is the rate of fire—how many shots that weapon can fire off in one round. This is
independent of the number of melee attacks a character can make in a round. Each range
category (Short, Medium, or Long) includes attacks from distances equal to or less than the
given range. Thus, a heavy crossbow fired at a target 136 yards away uses the medium range
modifier.
The attack roll modifiers for range are -2 for medium range and -5 for long range.
Arquebuses (if allowed) double all range modifiers.
