There was some pre-Tavern discussion of the additional dragon armours.
Quicksilver was something like AC +6, EV -0, resist slowing (RSlow was still in the game then), which seems about on par with pearl armour these days for endgame quality light armour. These days a fun brainstorm might be AC +?, EV -0, permanent scroll of vulnerability effect. (Go hex-mage.)
Shadow could be rN+++ with a meaningful drawback, but the flavorful drawbacks (healing magic doesn't work on you?) seem like things you'd find a quiet corner to circumvent.
Flavor-wise, iron has trouble being anything but a CPM clone. Ideas that I'm only half fond of would make it better than CPM armour wise, but with a drawback: AC +14, EV-6, ponderous, stasis.
