I am still flabbergasted that pocket brig is considered legal armor when titanium chainmail isn't lol.
You're flabbergasted that an armor made of legal materials is legal when an armor made of illegal materials is illegal?
No im flabbergasted that the armor made of legal materials is actually legal yet isn't actually armor, and wouldn't ever be armor, and is only possible because of the way the rules are worded, while the armor that would actually protect you, even though it is made of illegal materials is not permitted.
Not that i have an axe to grind in regards to titanium...but the entire reason for disallowing titanium is because its not a period material...but ninja pocket brig isn't period ether, yet is allowed because the way the rules are worded.
Correct me if im wrong, but pocket brig never existed in history, and its not period...which is odd to me since a lot of the rules in the book are in the book to keep things that aren't period out. But pocket brig slips through the cracks on a technicality even though its not period and would never protect you from an actual attack. For me, it would be like someone putting on football equipment and then claiming its armor.
In any case, ill be happy to discuss this more in the armor forum if you wish (since most of the general populace isn't permitted to post in the rules forum, and this is hardly the forum for this discussion.)
