Bronze, however, was preffered in this age because it holds it's form longer and mroe easily and is used more easily in decorative work as well. Tin shortages of Assyria lead to the more widespread adoptation of iron and, eventually steel. Also note that even in the hayday of the bronze age, iron weapons were used. The thing was that iron is not that much better than bronze, but it is harder to find and requires more heat to smelt and thus was not preferred.Also, for game mechanics, light armous allowed more movement, so consider allowing +1 to the Max Dex bonus for those armours and -1 Max Dex for the heavier stuff. Also consider than most wore lighter amrous during this time period, although breastplate was essentually at it's hayday.</blockquote>
