BABT + Edge Protection Early Modern Era Armor

A bit of a gap was missing between the medieval and the modern armor tables I made so far

For campaigns where guns are a thing but we're not in the modern era yet. A mix of medieval and early modern.

To help choosing armor, also provided is the cost and weight for a "Vest" which covers only the Torso.

3Edge Protection: Any Cutting or Impaling damage below the second value is turned into Crushing.

4Behind Armor Blunt Trauma: Any piercing damage that is lower than 3 times the DR of the armor is halved and turned into crushing damage. This is indicated by having two values: the first value the actual DR; any damage below the second value is halved and turned to crushing damage.

 

Layers

Inner and Insert layers are Concealable under or as clothing.

Inner and Insert layers may be layered on top of each other without any penalties.

Outer layer maybe layered on top of the other two layers but this gives a -1 to DX.

 

Armor Pieces

The armor table shows full body armor, that protects all parts of the body, except the neck, face and eyes. To buy armor that protects only a small part, multiply the price and weight by the modifier in the table below:

Location	Modifier
Skull	4%
Face*	3%
Neck**	2%
Torso	33%
Arms	27%
Legs	35%

*Armor that protects the eyes have transparent visors. Transparent visors halve the DR of the eyes.

**Anyone who wears outer armor on their neck suffers a -1 penalty to DX as if he was layering an extra layer of armor.
