Footnotes
✦1 Plate MailDue to its weight, the wearer is reduced to one movement die. At any time the wearer may attempt to restore full movement by rolling 1D20 below their Feat of Strength rating. This must be declared before the roll — on failure the character forfeits all movement that turn.
✦2 Buckler vs ShieldThe Buckler is small enough to be strapped to the arm without restricting movement, and may be used alongside two-handed weapons such as the Battle Axe. The Shield is not — it cannot be used with two-handed weapons.
