Dastana: These armoured forearm guards work when worn with: Unarmoured, Padded, Leather or Chain Shirt. They take up the Bracer slot on a character's body. While it also counts as wearing a shield a person can still use two weapons or a two-handed weapon when worn. They can be magicked and made from special materials.

They grant a +1 AC and have a -1 ACP.

It would work with a Mithril Chain Shirt but NOT with Elven Chainmail.

The game has separate listings for both a chain shirt and chainmail. The former is Light armour and the later is Medium armour. Chainmal (normally just called chain) is the classic chain haulberk that covers the wearer from neck to knees. This is what Elven Chainmail probably is suppose to be.

Correct. But the item is listed as working with Padded, Leather and Chain Shirt. I added in Unarmoured because I thought it made sense.

Feel free to House Rule that it works with all Light armour.

12-30-05, 02:07 PM It would work with a Mithril Chain Shirt but NOT with Elven Chainmail.Note, however, that it should work with Celestial Armor, which is Chainmail. This is because the Devata Armor from OA is a word-for-word copy of the description of Celestial Armor, with the addition of the sentence, "It can also be worn under a chahar-aina or with dastana."Actually the reason why i ask is because elven chainmail is considered light for all intensive purposesI think you mean for all intents and purposes. It's funny how sayings get perverted when people have poor diction.
