So, you know how so many of my suggestions start with So? Anywho, in real middle earth, chainmail was probobly a pretty common form of armor for regular orcs (NOT Uruk Hai), and men, and possibly dwarves (NOT Elves)? I am aware that Mithril Mail is already planned, but I think there should be more availability of chain armors in Middle-Earth. My crafting solution is this. For iron, gold, dwarf steel, blue dwarf steel, orc steel, and maybe a few others, one could craft a chain tile. This would be crafted using four nuggets of that type of material in a square anywhere on the crafting grid. (iron nuggets would have to be added, as well as a nugget for all those metals involved) This would get you a chain tile. Each chain tile could be crafted into armor as a regular ingot, but make chain armor insted of plate. This would make chain armor less expensive, especially in mithril's case. The chain armors would be 1/4 worse than their plate variants. Also, Rohan and Dundlending armors would be crafted with chain iron tiles instead of ingots, however, their durability and protection would stay the same. How do you'all think?
