OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Intent: To make a common ship armor panel

PRODUCTION INFORMATION
Name: Durasteel-Plasteel laminated armor panel
Manufacturer: Technically, anyone with a tube of glue and a cutting torch can make it.
Affiliation: anyone
Market Status: Open-Market
Production: mass production
Modularity: Can be used as armor for a multitude of different purposes, preferably large space frames.
Material: Durasteel, plasteel, glue (optional), rivets (optional) (can also be fuse-welded)
PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Classification: type of armor panel
Weight: Average
Color: light grey
Resistances:

WEAKNESSES
DESCRIPTION
An older armor building block of large military structures such as warships and space stations. Because of the common nature of the materials used to make it and the simplicity/flexibility of its design, not many “big name” shipwrights like to use it because they can’t patent it. For this reason, this particular building block usually resurfaces in historical times of chaos when fractured galactic powers simply don’t have time to worry about patent laws and just need good ships. Alternatively, it’s also a sign of a strong leader that can get his ship builders to fall in line and build a good warship that isn’t designed around political nonsense.

PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Classification: type of armor panel
Weight: Average
Color: light grey
Resistances:
- Energy: High
- Kinetic: High
- Lightsabers: Low
- Force: Low
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Mechanically engineered: Only as weak as the mind of the engineer that designs it.
- Un-patentable: this technology is old, yet efficient.
- Multiple configurations: layout can be Durasteel-Plasteel-Durasteel, plasteel-Durasteel-plasteel, or a plethora of thin layers like a Damascus pattern.
STRENGTHS
- All purpose combat strength. Mechanically designed to resist most kinds of military combat damage.
- Easily repaired and cheaply replaced
WEAKNESSES
- High maintenance. Especially on larger warships, lamination between Durasteel and Plasteel can separate over time with the shifting of a large space-frame. Engineers endeavour to mitigate this issue through their designs.
