Are you using the little table you posted, which didn't have entries for Breastplate, Banded, Splint etc, or are you using the 5e armour table and descriptions? The issue I'm having with that concept is partly that an artist's depiction of an image that they think they can make a nice picture of isn't an objective measure of what the RAW of a class' capabilities should be. Probably neither is whatever process google uses to decide whether any specific picture gets assigned the keyword: "Fighter". But mostly that I'm not sure what it adds in class balance, or concept, or realism etc. Do all Paladins gain Plate proficiency, or does it similarly depend on their Oath. Does swearing vengeance to your ancestors grant the ability to strap shaped metal plates to your body, in the same way that promising to uphold beauty to the Fey does?</blockquote>
