Magazine: European Armor in the Late Medieval Era is a blacksmithing magazine about plate armour. Reading it teaches the forge recipes for a full suit of metal armour, from helmet to gloves.
The recipes include Forge Metal Helmet, Forge Metal Neck Guard, Forge Coat of Plates Body Armor, Assemble Full Metal Forearm Armor, Forge Fingerless Metal Gloves, Forge Codpiece, Assemble Articulated Metal Thigh Armor and Assemble Articulated Metal Shin Armor. It also teaches Forge Buckle and the shoulder armour assembly. Every armour piece needs both Blacksmithing and Tailoring.
The magazine is found in loot, mostly in medieval history classrooms and late game survivor safehouses. Reading it also eases boredom and stress.
Uses
The lighter pieces come first. Forge Codpiece needs Blacksmithing level 4 and Tailoring level 3. Forge Metal Neck Guard, Forge Fingerless Metal Gloves and Forge Metal Helmet need Blacksmithing 6 and Tailoring 3. The helmet recipe makes a Crude Metal Helmet.
The heavy pieces need Blacksmithing 8 and Tailoring 4. These are Assemble Articulated Metal Thigh Armor, Assemble Articulated Metal Shin Armor, Assemble Full Metal Forearm Armor, the shoulder armour and Forge Coat of Plates Body Armor. The Coat of Plates is the body piece of the set.
All the armour recipes work at a Simple Forge or better. Forge Buckle is the exception. It needs Blacksmithing 4 and an Advanced Forge, and turns one metal piece into a Buckle. Buckles go into other recipes, such as Sew Belt.
Most recipes are also learned without the magazine once Blacksmithing climbs high enough. The Coat of Plates comes last, at Blacksmithing 10.
Like every magazine, it also counts as paper for armour. Make Magazine Body Armor takes eight magazines and four Duct Tape at Tailoring level 1. Make Magazine Limb Armor takes one magazine and two Duct Tape.

Locations
Medieval history classrooms are the best place to look, on their shelves. Late game survivor safehouses hold it in dressers, wardrobes and boxes. Comic store counters, cybercafe desks and book store shelves turn one up now and then. Mid game safehouses hold it only rarely.

Notes
- The heavy pieces need Blacksmithing 8, so this is late game armour.
- Tailoring matters too, so a smith also needs a little sewing practice.
- Blacksmith characters already know the Buckle recipe.
- A read copy still serves as Magazine Body Armor material.
