Hey guys, noob here once again asking noob questions.
In the Armor rules it says that you get (for instance) 3 points for having a location half or more covered in 18 gauge metal, or 2 points if it covers less than half. While obviously this is going to vary from Marshal to Marshal, as a young fighter I'm interested in getting as close as I can to maxing out my armor, so I was hoping for a little clarification on layered armor.
If I'm wearing, say, 18 gauge steel vambraces that cover the outside of my forearms over a pair of leather gloves that covers my hand and the inside of my forearm, how many points is that?
If I'm wearing a 2 point chainmail tunic and I wear 18 gauge mirror plates over my back and my belly, how much of my back and belly need to be covered by the plate to qualify for 3 points?
If I get a pair of greaves that cover the front and sides of my legs pretty thoroughly but are exposed on the back, will I get called for being less than half the location?
If I wear a steel gorget over my chainmail tunic but it doesn't cover more than half of a location (say the back or the shoulders) is the extra metal there 'wasted'?
I'm trying to put together the desired 35 point suit as affordably as I can here. Thanks for your help!
