The armor is a combination of [[Hardened Armor|Hardened]] and [[Reactive Armor]] that reduce damage taken from ballistic and missile weapons. The armor is also known as "reinforced" armor, but many techs use the term "hardened light" to describe it. A thinner version of hardened armor is backed by cable mesh that warps and traps missile and ballistic ammunition.<ref name="FM:3145p243">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 243, "Ballistic-Reinforced Armor"</ref> − + Rules Level: Advanced − <div class="gamerules">+ Available to: BM, IM, CV, SV, AF, CF − == Game Rules ==+ Tech Base (Ratings): Inner Sphere (E/X-X-X-E) − Ballistic-Reinforced Armor reduces the damage inflicted by missile and ballistic weapons by half (rounding down), to a minimum of one point. Other damage types (energy weapons, falls, physical attacks, etc.) are not affected by Ballistic-Reinforced Armor. + Game Rules: Against ballistic and missile weapons, Ballistic-Reinforced Armor reduces the damage effects by half (rounded down, to a minimum of 1). Damage from other sources (including collisions, falls, physical attacks, and energy weapons) is unaffected. − + Construction Rules: Ballistic-Reinforced Armor provides 12 points of protection per ton of armor. It occupies 10 critical slots on ’Mech units, 1 on vehicles, and 2 for fighters (assigned 1 each to the fighter’s wing locations). Ballistic-Reinforced Armor may be mounted on Omni-units, but may not be pod-mounted − It is [[Advanced Technology]] when introduced. One ton of armor provides 12 points of protection. On a BattleMech, it occupies ten (10) critical slots; On fighters it takes up two critical slots (one in each wing); vehicle-mounted BRA occupies 1 critical slot. It can be mounted on OmniMechs but may not be pod mounted.<ref name="FM:3145p243"/> − </div> − − == Manufacturing == − '''Ballistic-Reinforced Armor''' is manufactured on the following planets: − − {|class="wikitable sortable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" − !
