Stevetheemu Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 Hey guys I'm trying to settle on an armour to get and have researched all around to find the best armour for me. I came across a few recommended on this forum and my local garrison forums. I looked one up called AP armour. Has anyone had experience with this armour and if so are they good? I hear good things about them. I also have seen the RS prop masters armour. Is this good? I was looking on their website and saw you can buy a pre made armour. I don't really have anywhere to build it and plus I'm a bit of a clumsy person and a bit paranoid ill mess it up :S are pre made armours good or should I really give it a crack at making it. I'm willing to if it comes to that cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuteman Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 Welcome Tom! First of all it depends on your height, weight and proportions which armor to consider. AM and RT-MOD are for the bigger trooper, AP is more for the smaller build (but can be modified for bigger troopers) The rest of the armor fits the "average" trooper, 1,75m -1,85m, 70-90kg I would say (but this is no law, there is always room for modifications). Then it comes to your budget - what are you willing to pay? The ATA (affordable trooper armor) set costs around $600, TM and RS are a decent lot more, but beeing more accurate. And the assembly... well, this is no rocket sience, there are so many builds and tutorials here on FISD and we as a community will help you with any question you have. I would say that everybody can do this. The pre build armor is offered by TM and RS, but comes at a higher price, for RS around 2k. I found it very satisfactory to build my own armor, something to be proud of, although I understand those who are not able or willing to do this. In the end it is up to you, don´t hesitate to ask questions ;-) p.s.: very good thread: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/11538-the-various-types-of-armor-and-where-to-find-them/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK bondservnt[501st] Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 the reason it's worth it is because makers like RS do such a fine job! I've seen it in person. not one single error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
