Chainmail armour provides an effective defence against slashing weapons by an edged foam sword and penetration by thrusting and piercing larp weapons. In our fantasy world it is believed that it is almost impossible to penetrate using any conventional medieval weapon but since we do not use Mythril you will just have to count your points. Generally speaking, mail's resistance to weapons is determined by two factors: linkage type riveted or butted. We use steel or aluminum rings the latter of the two is lighter. Aluminum grants the wearer greater mobility due to the weight of the material but steel gives a more realistic look.
