Vanguard Mercenaries - Armour Only

Description
I did NOT create anything in this mod. LunaticFox (ChaoticFox) is the original creator.

Original Mod:
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2178681257


Summary: Cool, Craftable, Vanilla-esque armour. No weapons or mech suits attached.


Myself and a bunch of others wanted an armour only version of the vanguard mercenaries mod (one mod file, bunch of compiled mods).
LunaticFox refused, hes got his own reasons. Whatever, I'lll do it myself.

Like 10 minutes of learning FCS later (shoutout OOP), I was able to start cooking this up.



What this mod adds:

- 8 Pieces of Headgear
- 4 Pieces of Torso Armour
- 3 Different Pairs of Boots
- 1 Pair of Pants
- A blueprint available at ronin (shek, tech hunter), UC, and mongrel armour shops.


Yes, I removed every directly non-armour related item/faction/character and made sure all the gear was unlocked through a single blueprint.


Crafting WAS currently the only method to nab this gear, even though I dont have a base (I think its fair, since its basically vanilla gear +).


I also adjusted the stats on most of the armour, I based it off of different bits of vanilla gear (but a tiny bit better since you have to craft it instead of buy it).

If anything seems unbalanced, or even slightly OP, let me know so I can adjust it and you can get back to your regularly scheduled pain simulator.


Happy Hunting!

Fixed it, lmk if you find anything else like that, i like cracking open FCS every now and again

Armour stats are still (slightly) lower than vanilla samurai gear because it offers much more coverage, win some, lose some. Das kenshi baybee.

Vanguard Samurai Longcoat dont use fabrics when crafted via smitting, kinda unbalance since you just have to make armor plate

Isn't the armor performance bad?
If it had the same performance as the Samurai Armor, I would have used it.
