Description
Created by the Scientist caste of Clan Snow Raven in 3070,[1][2] Ferro-Lamellor armor is based on the Ferro-Carbide armor used in the Raven's WarShips. Scaled down for use on 'Mechs, AeroSpace Fighters, and tanks, the experimental Ferro-Lamellor armor offers improved protection, beyond even that of the ferro-fibrous armor family.
Though it only offers 88% coverage compared to standard armor[3][4] , Ferro-Lamellor has a unique property: It reduces the damage of weapon strikes by 20%.[5][6] In addition, the armor will reinforce the structure of the unit mounting it, making it impervious to the armor piercing effects of Armor-Piercing autocannon ammunition, Tandem-Charge Warheads, and BattleMech Tasers.[7][6]
Manufacturing
Ferro-Lamellor Armor is manufactured on the following planets:
| Brand | Planet | Company | Used by | References |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Compound LZ-7 | Mitchella | Snow Raven Industrial Complex Beta | Carrion Crow | [8] |
| Compound LZ-7 | Ramora | Raveena Electronics | White Raven | [9] |
Game Rules
The armor reduces 1 point of damage for every 5 points of damage to a minimum of 0 points per hit. Damage reduced to 0 will not affect the pilot or deliver a penetrating or floating critical hit. However weapons can affect the motive systems of some vehicles. In addition Ferro-Lamellor negates the effects of armor-piercing ammunition. For construction for every one ton allocated 14 points of armor are given, 7 for a half ton. Takes twelve critical slots.
