Light Armor






Basic vs Advanced

Winter of Wolves is a Rule-based RP, but that doesn't mean we want players to have to crunch numbers and learn the whole system to play. Pretty much all of the game can be played with basic rules, for which you only need to know the information written out here. Sometimes, there will be advanced rules which can be handled back stage by the GM, whenever you see text Written like this, these are advanced rules and you can feel free to ignore them if you don't want to get into the mechanics of the RP.





Padded Armor
Padded armor is little more than several layers of cloth and padding placed within a doublet or a padded jacket. Thought more effective than regular clothes at stopping most weapons, the padding also makes it harder to move around. It is probably the most common type of armor one finds in the Royal city outside of military units or expert warriors.
Armor Value: Regular
Penalties:
Cumbersome: -2 Tumble, Sneak, Swim, Climb and Jump.
Special Qualities: n/a

Cost: 75 Guerrmarks
Weight: 6

Leather Armor
Leather armor is probably the only armor still in use by a major military force in the world. That also is the only true military force still remaining, the Royal Army. Boiled, hardened leather will actually do rather well against your average dagger or improvised weapon, but will do nothing against gunfire.
Armor Value: Regular
Penalties:
Cumbersome: -1 Tumble, Sneak, Swim, Climb and Jump.
Special Qualities: n/a

Cost: 110 Guerrmarks
Weight: 6

Chain Armor
Usually worn under one's clothes, chain can provide more than adequate protection against most stabbing and shooting attacks. Still, like most other armor, it is completely ignored by gunshots, which means it has mostly phased out of use.
Armor Value: Difficult
Penalties:
Cumbersome: -2 Tumble, Sneak, Swim, Climb and Jump.
Special Qualities: n/a

Cost: 130 Guerrmarks
Weight: 8
