I don't know if this goes for every integrated material, since brass is the only one that I've come across in gameplay, but I'm curious whether or not brass is supposed to have armor. Was this intentional, or are you going to add it later?

This is a Tinkers' Construct integration mod. TCon has armor, so I don't know why this would even be a request. I don't plan to add vanilla-style items to the mod.

Sorry for necroposting on this, but I suppose I was too shellshocked by your straight-forward response to reply until now. I want to clarify that I meant brass plate & maille, not vanilla-styled chestplates and the like. I'm sorry for the confusion on that.
