Draconic Scales
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Draconic Scales[1b], also known as Draconic Scale Armour, are uncommon and impossibly expensive[1a] Imperial dermal body suits, due to containing rare examples of Conversion Field technology.[1b]
Description
They incorporate dozens of tiny Conversion Fields, that are layered within the Scales and the dermal body suits are often worn under armour. The energy technology makes the Scales' wearer proof against most weapons, as the Conversion Fields negate penetrative power[1b]. However their are ways around this, such as strangling the Scales' wearer instead.[1a]
