@MrHobit1234

When someone thinks he is proving that someone else is disproving his own argument...

And how did I disprove my own argument? I just asked something... And it would even make sense, that they could smith plate armour. I take everything (or atleast most...) back, if Ithilion is right about that we "know" that there really was no plate armour (Btw I'm interested from where you got this information, Ithilion).

Just saying: As if no one would have thought about stronger armour than chain... It seems so unrealistic for me o_o Chainmail is actually very strong armor, and there was no need for anything better. Since they could bake it so easily and it was so effective, there's no reason to search for more types.

You ask where I get my information? Tell me, is there a single instance where plate armor is mentioned in the book? No. It is always mail, hauberks, coats of chain, etc. Not even in the halls of Erebor is there plate armor, for Thorin wore a golden mail-coat.
