Scale armour

Scale Armour consists of overlapping scales fashioned in the form of a tunic, most likely attached to a leather or cloth backing. Scale armour provides more protection from bludgeon attacks; however, it does not cover as much total area as chainmail. Additional drawbacks are the hefty price and equally impressive weight.

Scale armour was first introduced in Ultima V.

Complete set (Ultima VII)
By Ultima VII, A complete set of Scale Armour contains the following pieces. The numbers listed after indicate the relative effectiveness of the armour (taken from Vetron's Guide to Weapons and Armour):
 * Scale Armour (2)
 * Closed Helmet (3)

For the other body parts, pieces from other armour classes have to be used, because they don't exist in a scale variant.
