URW Game Encyclopedia description

The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes cuirasses thusly:

The combination of breastplate and backplate to cover the thorax and abdomen. Breastplates are often worn on their own. A cuirass can be made simply of leather, but the most common type is a lamellar cuirass worn by Njerpezit.

The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes lamellar armour thusly:

Lamellar is eastern armour type used by Njerpezit. Lamellar armours are made of square or rectangular iron plates tightly fastened to each other with leather straps passed through openings along the edges of the plates. Lamellar technique is used mainly to create cuirass and hauberk type armors, but it's also suitable for some spot protection pieces like shin guards and forearm guards. Lamellar armour offers better protection than mail, especially in case of blunt attacks.
