Description/Notes[edit]

A standard suit of armor for samurai, generally infantry. It was the cheapest form of samurai armor to produce, and was lighter and more maneuverable. The suit contains a helmet, shoulder armor, chest armor, light back armor, an armored skirt that goes to the knee, thigh armor, shin guards, and wrist guards.

  1. Unlike the additional cost, the increase to the armor or shield's hardness and hit points are only gained from its enhancement bonus, not its special abilities.
  2. If the armor or shield has a magical bonus greater than +5 or a special ability worth more than +5, then it's epic. Multiply magic cost by 10.
