Heavy Automaton Plating

*Type Heavy Armor
*Benefit Automaton plating can only be mounted onto Automatons in a process that takes 1 hour and requires a DC 15 Craft (Mechanics) check. The process must be repeated to remove the plating. Automaton plating cannot be given magical enhancements or abilities, but it can be given psionic or technological enhancements and abilities. Because redundant plating has diminishing returns, the maximum Dex bonus of automaton plating also applies to the creature's natural armor bonus (although both bonuses are limited separately from each other). Automaton plating does not need to be crafted specially for creatures with odd shapes as the system is designed for modularity.
