When calculating the cost of a suit of armor made of extraordinary metals and materials, Battle plate is considered to cost twice as much as standard heavy armor, while War Plate is considered to cost three times as much. This reflects the much greater weight of material these suits demand. In addition to this, a full suit of mithril battle plate or war plate, and the articulating versions of those, are still considered to be heavy armor. Those suits of armor are so massive that even pure mithril cannot give them the properties of medium armor. | When calculating the cost of a suit of armor made of extraordinary metals and materials, Battle plate is considered to cost twice as much as standard heavy armor, while War Plate is considered to cost three times as much.

Articulating Armor has a set of auxiliary armor plates permanently attached to it on swivels and pivots | Articulating Armor has a set of auxiliary armor plates permanently attached to it on swivels and pivots. If the wearer of Articulating Armor moves no more than 5 feet per round(declaring no Move action and only taking a five foot step), they can manipulate (usually by going into a slight crouch, moving arms and legs in certain small ways, and tensing certain muscles) these additional armor plates to increase their armor protection. This is an immediate free action for the proficient user. This is an increase in the inherent AC of the armor itself, not a bonus, for the purposes of stacking. Being flatfooted does NOT affect this bonus as long as the wearer has declared they are accepting the movement penalties while not in combat, but it is bypassed by Touch attacks. | ||
When calculating the cost of a suit of Articulating Armor made of extraordinary metals and materials, all Articulating Armors are 50 percent more expensive than normal, due to the extra material needed and the additional craft work required. Thus, Articulating Full Plate is half again more expensive for the metals used, Articulating Battle Plate is two and a half times more expensive, and Articulating War Plate is 3 and a half times more expensive. | When calculating the cost of a suit of Articulating Armor made of extraordinary metals and materials, all Articulating Armors are 50 percent more expensive than normal, due to the extra material needed and the additional craft work required.

Cavalry Armor is a standard set of armor with the leggings replaced with heavier and more robust leg plates. Cavalry armor requires the Exotic Armor Proficiency, but proficiency applies to all types of Cavalry Armor. The much heavier and stiffer legs make the armor considerably more protective at the expense of making it far more difficult to walk. This is not an issue when mounted, and so many dedicated riders use Cavalry armors. Even better, when riding a mount while wearing Cavalry armor, the armor class increase granted by the special leggings are also added to the Armor Class of the mount. In all cases, this is +2 armor for the mount, plus any enhancement bonus to AC the armor may possess. This bonus only applies while the rider is mounted and wearing the armor. The movement penalty does not hamper the wearer's ability to mount and dismount nce he has reached his mount. Note that due to the specialized nature of this armor, the movement penalty applies even to characters that may have class or racial abilities that normally negate some or all armor penalties, such as Dread Commandos and Dwarves. | Cavalry Armor is a standard set of armor with the leggings replaced with heavier and more robust leg plates.

Further note that a suit of silkenmail can be thus enchanted for more AC, DR, and possibly ER (depending upon add-on metals) and combined with a suit of standard armor. All like bonuses stack in these cases, with the standard silkenmail -1 taken into account. (DR 7/slashing will not stack with DR 7/-, for example, because the bonuses are not identical.) The difficulty check for combining such a massively enchanted suit of armor is likely to be quite high, and failure ruins the silkenmail as usual. | Further note that a suit of silkenmail can be thus enchanted for more AC, DR, and possibly ER (depending upon add-on metals) and combined with a suit of standard armor.
