Scale Mail (armor)

An armor consisting of many individual small scales of various shapes attached to each other and to a backing of leather in overlapping rows. The lower part of the armor consists of leather or scale greaves that cover the shins and the top of the boot.

The armor requires the wearing of padded armor beneath the scales-and-leather to prevent chafing and to provide armor for gaps the scales do not cover.

Scale mail provides a +4 armor class adjustment (lowers armor class by 4 points). It is fairly heavy.
