[QUOTE="Greenfield, post: 6604643, member: 6669384"] I happen to own a chain shirt IRL (I teach a class on how to make it at Renaissance fair). I had a disagreement with a DM on Armor Check penalties and how they worked. He said, among other things, that you couldn't conceal chain, because of the bulk. I took off my sweatshirt and showed him that I'd been wearing it all night. Nobody had heard it click or clink, nobody had noticed the extra 1/4 inch of "bulk". Seems like there would be something you could do related to that property. By the rules, magical Plate will adjust itself to fit. Other magical armors don't actually mention that property, and nobody suggests that non-magical armors do it at all. IRL, chain armor does. As it pulls longer, it draws narrower. I've put my shirt on 12 year old kids (both boys and girls) and I've put it on men 6'4" and it fits them all. Again, something to consider there. [/QUOTE]
