Leather Armor

Description


This is a simple mod that adds leather armor into the game. The leather armor is built at a tailoring table like clothing, and is available after researching complex clothing (dusters, pants, etc.).
The leather armor uses the material properties of the leather used in its construction. Leather armor is meant to be an early alternative to plate armor. It is less protective than plate, but doesn't hamper movement.

I built this mod when I noticed that there wasn't a good alternative to plate armor early in the game and at low tech levels. This mod now includes new textures for the armor. If you prefer the old built-in Plate Armor texture for this, you can find the old mod here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1642161536

Compatibility:
- Compatible with existing saved games.
- Compatible with all mods.

Armor textures by Mediocretes.

I think having the leather armor available with complex clothing is a good choice. It would be nice to see the stats in the description. Great idea here!

Leather armor would be great to fill the gap in neolithic armor technology. If you are using a mod that makes you do research in order of tech level the leather armor is obsolete before you research it :/ would love to have access to "simple leather armor" in neolithic which would simply be an upgrade to wooden armor, and than "advanced leather armor" in medieval to provide a less cumbersome alternative for plate. As it stands right now it feels close to vanilla, and like it should be in the game, but is dropped into the wrong tech :3
Love the mod anyway! Gr8 job! :steamthumbsup:

It seemed to be working for 1.3 anyway so I never bothered commenting for a 1.3 request, but thanks for the official update!

@Joe the Tech
Noticed that this mod, along with FactionColor, use the same defName - Apparel_LeatherArmor. I'm dropping the message on both mod pages.
