Plate armor for 1st level Fighters

[Andor]

So the consensus it that nobody should dare to mess with giving Fighters plate for balance reasons and besides Scale is better anyway. *sigh* Does anyone have an aspirin?

Paladins get plate, Fighters get military ranged weapons.

Thanks for all the replies, your collected wisdom was invaluable. I'll stick to the RAW and see how it works from there!
