The Military Jacket - Desert Camo is a cotton army field jacket in a desert camouflage print. It is a tough everyday jacket made for field work. It covers the torso, the back, both arms and the neck.

Its main strength is solid defence against zombies. It stops nearly a third of bites and half of scratches on everything it covers. Its main cost is that it is light on warmth and wind cover, and it slows running and attacks a little.

The jacket comes in several looks with the same stats. Besides Desert Camo, there are Foreign Camo and Tiger Stripe Camo versions. It turns up mostly in army surplus stores and pawn shops. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.

Wearing


The jacket gives moderate warmth and keeps out a little rain. It blocks only a small part of the wind. That suits it to warm and mild weather more than to a winter storm.

Against zombies, it stops about three in ten bites and half of scratches on the arms, torso and back. It also gives the neck solid extra protection.

Running is about 6 percent slower, and attacks are about 3 percent slower.

The Military Jacket - Green Camo has the same defence and speed costs, but it is warmer and more resistant to wind and rain. The Jacket - Hunting Camo matches the green jacket exactly. The Leather Jacket stops fewer bites and scratches, but it blocks far more wind.

The jacket fills the Jacket slot. It cannot be worn with another jacket, a suit jacket, a down jacket, a bulky jacket, a hooded jacket, a bathrobe, a boilersuit, a full suit or sport shoulder pads. A shirt, a T-shirt and a sweater still fit underneath.

Tailoring


The jacket is cotton. The Rip Clothing recipe turns it into a Rag, and any character can do that by hand.

Army surplus stores and pawn shops are the places to look. Their clothing racks and shelves hold the jacket about one time in eight. Other army surplus containers and pawn shop shelves do nearly as well. Farm worker dorm lockers and household wardrobes give one only rarely.

Notes


  • The jacket is a strong pick for fighting in warm weather.
  • For cold weather, the Green Camo version gives the same defence with more warmth.
  • All three camo prints share the same stats, so any of them does the same job.
  • A sweater under the jacket adds warmth for cooler days.
