You asked what things would go on the Linothorax, as it became more expensive? well the cheapest would be no scales, next up reinforced metal scale and the next (watch me get crucified by others) a metal plate on the chest. about 10 inches wide and six to eight inches deep, that was placed below the neck in the middle of the chest. My reference is the pompeii mosaic and a few helenistic images.

just my two cents worth.
