Streaky due to Turtle Wax (car wax) used to protect from rust, but otherwise combat-ready real armor made to withstand the stresses of live combat. Hand-made using 16g cold-rolled mild steel, thick leather straps, rolled edges with articulating upper lames. Fits left shoulder only, leaving right arm to wield your favorite weapon.

armor from game is not a single plate of thin metal, it looks more like a solid few centimetres thic piece of metal, more like tank armor then medieval breastplate which would not stop any ap bullet

I made this before i found this game. Working on some new ones now but they are all similar style, authentic to medieval age.

Thanks. When i saw this year armor requires cow hides, i smiled because it really does. It requires some leather for the straps behind the metal.
Also, i love the fact there is standard metal armor and Mark 2 metal armor since the fancy flutes really do make the armor tougher. Some archers challenged the armor guys one year at a Missouri ren-faire and lost. They thought that the flutes would be weaker and their Bodkin arrows would go right through.
But the armorers smiled and said "try and see!" so a fluted piece was set up as a target and an archer fired on of these babies and his arrow struck dead-on a flute...and bounced off lol. The metal was not even dented - only had an x-shaped scratch in it. So yes, metal armor MkII really is superior stuff.
I don't know any way to make metal armor bullet-proof but i assume AP ammo goes right through it, even in 2238. Check your wounds/scars.

When you have depleted uranium rounds that can swiss cheese an APC i doubt humans will have armour before they have forcefields.

fine work mate , very fine indeed
my friend tested 65G(russian manganese steel alloy) 50x50 cm 4mm thick flat plate around 55 hrc with various pistol and rifle rounds and the results were very good for mere uncurved sheet
so it is possible to be made steel armor but the weigth will be enormous
ned kelly armor thou crude and cumbersome was hard enough to withstand guns of that time so with the modern lab grade steels and machinery everything is possible
