The thrikeen is still reasonable humanoid in form, so it really shouldn't cost more than a regular suit of armour. :P my question is how can a thri-kreen use two gythkas if double weapons (if my memory serves) are used cross body, and (agean if my memory serves) you cant weild two cross boddy weapons at once? Really? Where's this rule from?

And though they're more or less humanoid, I think they're unusual enough in form to justify have to pay a little extra for armor. Besides the four arms, a chitinous body doesn't exactly wear plate mail the same way a fleshy human would. Wielding two gythkas would seem to be kind of awkward, but then again a standard humanoid wielding two weapons has a little trouble without special training, too. It takes a feat for thri-kreen to effectively do two gythkas at once, so that's how they pull it off: extra practice.
