Roman Armor

Roman Armor

Armor (breastplate), uncommon

The Roman empire has some of the greatest blacksmiths in the world, and their armor is exceptional. This style of armor, known as the Lorica Segmentata was made of a series of metal strips fastened together by leather straps to form an impenetrable, but still flexible, defensive layer. Although the Parthians have used this style of armor for much longer than the Romans, the Romans have perfected it. By plating the outer layer of the armor with steel, Roman smiths were able to make armor that was balanced against attacks, yet still flexible.

While you wear this armor, a critical hit against you becomes a normal hit.
