Chainmail eh? That's going to be bloody fiddly isn't it?
— In-game description
Chain Armour Crafting is Smithing Tech which unlocks the ability to create Chainmail Sheets and construct a Chain Armour Crafting Bench. All Armour made from chainmail requires additional Blueprints to craft.
Players should ensure that their outpost has a good source of Steel Bars and Fabrics, both of which are required for creating Chain Armour. Making Chainmail Sheets is a good way to train a character's Armour Smith stat.
