Tech Provides Tri-Strontium Armor
Long Description Our scientists have grown concerned about mass drivers that actually make use of warped space to enhance their damage. Tri-Strontium is a material so advanced it's a little bit frightening.

As a material, it makes use of three different types of strontium, a new type of composite material. When any of the three types of strontium is impacted by a hyper-dense mass (like a mass driver weapon) at high velocity, the other two layers vibrate at the molecular level to effectively rebound much of the force from the mass driver.
