Travis,
In the actual state of our thoughts, I think that thick felt would be perhaps only appropriated for a plain subarmalis of the thorachomacus kind.
We're arriving to the interesting conclusion of 'pterugated' subarmalis being an affair of multiple felt or fabric layers.
Do you agree with that? 8)

Yes. I think basically, if the pteruges are of the same piece as the body of the subarmalis, then it makes the most sense that you have two layers, you can think of this as two subarmalis, one on top of the other. That would make the double row of pteruges, and a substantial level of protection on the upper body.
