'''Aspect Armour''' is manufactured by the [[Eldar]] for use by their specialist [[Aspect Warriors]].{{Fn|1}}
==Overview==
[[Image:Dire Avenger Mymeara.jpg|thumb|right|220px|[[Dire Avenger]] in Aspect Armour{{Fn|3}}]]Aspect Armour uses psychic engineering to construct a psycho-sensitive material which reacts instantly to movement by the wearer and moulds and reshapes itself to provide a tight fit, making it ideal for combat. It stiffens on impact much like [[Mesh Armour]] although it also includes further rigid plating to reinforce it further. [[Dark Reapers]], [[Shining Spears]], [[Striking Scorpions]], [[Warp Spiders]] and [[Fire Dragons]] all have heavier plate armour for improved protection when compared to [[Dire Avengers]], [[Howling Banshees]] and [[Swooping Hawks]], each one needing the extra manoeuvrability maneuverability lost when using heavier armour.{{citethis}}
Aspect Armour is psycho-reactive and will interface with the psyche of the wearer and their [[Spirit Stone]]. Those who can not properly control their psyche will be overcome by the anger, fear, and other negative emotions and memories of not just themselves but past wearers, causing them to collapse in a heap upon the ground. Thus donning Aspect Armour comes fairly late in the training of new Aspect Warriors after extensive meditative and physical training.{{Fn|4}} Wearers can also alter the psychically attuned metafabrics of their Aspect armour with a few simple minutes of concentration.{{Fn|6}}
'''Heavy Aspect Armour''' incorporates thick armoured plates but retain great flexibility, and is known to be among the best in the [[Galaxy]].{{Fn|2}}
