How much are chainmail and plate in the PnP game. I have the Players' Guide, I'll look in there. Boy, it may seem cheap now, but I had to kill a lot of skeletons and gibberlings in BG to get my first Plate. And then found that Antheg plate in a plowed field!

Oh that's right. Duhr. You only get slowed down more if you have heavy encumbrance. Right? At least that's the way I think it works.
Addendumb to my previous message. Meant to say that the image of a man in shining plate mail walking a tight rope is a funny one. Full plate costs 1500 GP, Galadria. So start saving now. [img]smile.gif[/img] DeSoya

"Full Plate and packing steel" as Minsc would say. 1500 is about the same as Full Plate in BG, if you could buy it, which you can't. To have the smith make you Antheg Plate costs 3000 GP. The Assassin at the Cloakwood mines, you know, the one who says that he's going to make a puppet of your head and make it say that has a set. Off-topic, I know, but one of my favorite moments in BG.

Well don't hurt me, but I've never played any of the BG series.
Am I correct by remembering that Icewindale is set with 3rd edition rules? Depends on your DM as to whether you'll be able to buy Full Plate. At least in the multiplayer thingy. Now I'd better just leave it at that before Wolfgir and I start ruckesing about armor again. [img]tongue.gif[/img] DeSoya

Desoya, I thought it was a most illuminating discussion that you and Wolfie had. You've never played BG or BGII? Wow, you are lucky. I wish that I hadn't, so that I could play them for the first time, now.

I really enjoyed this discussion DeSoya, it is always good to challenge your way of gameplay, thats how we found out that the buckler in the 3:ed was one of the best shields in the game!! So it is always enjoying to debate these thing in such a friendly and informative way. (As a result our group has agreed on never to allow a magic item being a scalemail anymore! ) Hehe! IWD is not 3:ed, itīs a 2:ed interface based game. IWD2 will have alot of the 3:Ed fules infleunced to it and hopefully will lead to an interesting gameplay. If you havenīt played the BG games, you should at least check them out! Good luck!
