It looks like brigandine made it in to the books, but I'm unable to start pounding. I tried several of the patterns but all gave no output when attempting to pound ingot with hammer. The (0) required large cloth paddings looked a little odd on this one as well.

-= Chapter 2, Page 30: Instructions for crafting a metal lamellar lorica =-

A metal lamellar lorica is a craftable item in the Forging society under the Armorsmithing crafting discipline. This is considered to be a challenging piece to make, though knowledge of the Torso Brigandine Armor Design technique will be beneficial to the crafter.

This item is listed as a "finished metal brigandine armor" ingredient type and is created using a forging hammer, some tongs, some metalworking oil, a metal anvil with forge. A crafter may also find it helpful to have some pliers a shovel and a bellows on hand.

A list of ingredients is provided:

(1) refined metal ingot (42 volume)
(0) finished large cloth padding

Barely any soot remains on the walls or floor here, despite constant use. A nice leather tarp holds a mountain of fuel, and nearby is a large anvil and forge fire that crackles and pops in the low light. You also see a glowing forge, a grindstone and a large waste bucket.

Hmm, I pushed some of the brigandine armor out a few hours ago but had to run before making sure it was behaving. Give me a few and it should be working again.

Seems there is a bit of a typo when I analyze brigandine balaclava. See below:

analyze bala
You thoroughly analyze the brigandine balaclava, revealing some of its secrets.
When crafting is complete this will be a type of finished metal brigandine armor.
The metal wire links, scales and plates now appear ready for weaving using a pair of plauers. Just pull the balaclava with the pliers to stitch them together.
From the progress so far, it looks like the balaclava is masterfully-crafted.
The balaclava is a basic piece to make.

Plauers should be pliers.
