Restrictions
[Mods] have restrictions on what types of [Item] they may be installed on, this is indicated by the [Mods's] [Archetype] and [Subtype], if a [Mod] shares an [Archetype] AND [Subtype] with the [Item] you wish to install it on, you may do so, if it does not share an [Archetype] or [Subtype] then you may not.
Requirements
Both [Mods] and Items have Brawn Requirements. when adding a [Mod] to an [Item], the greater of the two Brawn Requirements is the [Item's] new Brawn Requirement
Example: A Mk.2 Catch Plate has a Brawn Requirement of 5 and if installed in a Buckler, Which has a Brawn Requirement of 3, would increase the Requirement to 5.
