Some new armor types I am working on for Forging 2.0 chain/brigandine are the mantle (neck, chest, back), robe (legs, chest, abdomen, back), girdle (abdomen), tunic (chest,back) and sleeves (arms, hands). All items have been rebalanced so each area of coverage has a base hinderance and a base weight. Multi-covering items just sum these together, plus a bit of added weight as a detractor from always using hauberks. Protection and Absorption are based on the class, material and ore used to create the armor. What I am saying is, armor made of a collection of pieces (aventail, lorica, vambrances) is now entirely possible without sacrificing hinderance or protection.
