Hmm this isnt my area but Im not sure I agree with this. As I remember such things in other games platemail was usually great against crushing, but slightly susceptable to piercing weapons that came in thru the chinks. Chainmail was better vs piercing but more susceptable to crush. Both had some armor defense against everything, just slight advantages vs some.
