Late Atomic Era riot armor
Full body protection: 3d+0 against melee attacks, rigid, padded, worn
outside clothing, 2.5kg, 800Cr
Torso protection, ballistic vest: 2d+2 against firearms, flexible, worn
under other protection, 1.6kg, 600Cr
Total mass: 4.1kg
Total cost: 1400Cr (not including adjustments for limited production)
Protection totals:
Head: 3d+0 against melee, 2d+0 against firearms
Torso(layered): 4d+0 against melee, 3d+2 against firearms
Arms: 3d+0 against melee, 2d+0 against firearms
Legs: 3d+0 against melee, 2d+0 against firearms
Layering note: The torso melee rating is 3d+0, plus 1d+0 (half the 1d+2
rating of the vest against blunt trauma). The torso ballistic rating is 2d+2
(the vest), plus 1d+0 (half the 2d+0 rating of the outer armor against
firearms).
Design note: The armor in the reference picture is probably Atomic Era
rather than Late Atomic Era. Shifting the tech era while keeping the same
mass drops the base cost to 1100Cr and the stats to:
Protection totals:
Head: 2d+1 against melee, 1d+1 against firearms
Torso(layered): 3d+0 against melee, 3d+0 against firearms
Arms: 2d+1 against melee, 1d+1 against firearms
Legs: 2d+1 against melee, 1d+1 against firearms
