Given a cuirass is more in line with a flak vest than plate armour, so the cover provided by the armour here works well. I am curious as to how it compares stat-wise with that armour though given flak armour can only be made with steel, and requires a component.

Same applies with the sallet for both the flak, and simple helmet, although those are any metal

It does now :p

anyone know if this still works in 1.4?

I like the idea of this mod. Suggestion: make the cuirass to not occupy the outer layer - just as the flak vest does, so it will be a good option for hot/cold places (where human can't survive without wearing duster/parka). As a result, the cuirass will be a complete, balanced pre-industrial analogue of the flak vest.

Ah, alright. Thanks for the reply!

Only from metals and wood, just like the vanilla Plate Armour :)
The bluish material is from the mod Runescape Metals

Looks cool. Can the cuirass be made from leather though? That would be weird. (Looks like that on the screenshots)

Or what is that blue-ish material that some pieces are made from?

cool now make a Morion Helmet lol
