<P><FONT SIZE=2>I felt those prices (and a lot of the armor prices) were seriously whacked. I tried to reformulate the armor prices based on increase in AV, decrease in weight and increase in DR.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>For Dwarven armor I believe I figured the price based on dwarven construction (metal armors, usually with a +1 AV and an increase in DR) and that was the price for dwarves and dwarf friends. Neutrals could purchase such armor in dwarven areas for about 3x cost.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I did the same for elven armors, mostly with regards to the non-metal (+1 AV, reduced weight, slight increase in DR) and metal (I have elven chain, made from Ael-metal, an elf-secret alloy similar to titanium). Elven non-metal armors are reienforced with VERY hardened wood or other natural materials. Again, I figured the new price based on the stats and that is what elves would pay in elven areas. Elf friends paid 3x this value, and neutrals (if they could get it at all -- better have damn good influence) paid 10x.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Like I say book 1 and 3 are great tools to START with. But they could be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>further defined if one wished to. For example theres one game system out</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>there that has an entire supplement book (about 40 pages) just devoted to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>society in terms of this very topic station and such. I beliee the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>supplement was titled Clan Law or something like that. It was a nice read</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>and gave newbies and vets a good place to work with. But if you think its</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>good enough then so be it. :)</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>BTW Richard! Is the table in book 1 correct in terms of the non-human</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>item values? Ie Dwarf Armor x100? I always wondered that if it was</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>correcti or just a x10 and a typo :) I mean find a nice suit of Dwarf</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Armor say brigdine and retire :)</FONT>
