+# betterchainmail
+
+Minecraft mod that makes chainmail armour better. Chainmail armour is rather
+difficult to obtain in Minecraft, but is worse than iron armour making it pretty
+much useless. This mod buffs the armour such that it's similar, but slightly
+different than diamond.
+
+Specifically, the new armour values are `4, 6, 8, 4` and the set has a toughness
+of `1.0f`.
