That proves that native argonians would not need iron or steel to make weapons and armor so if they did have those supplies cut off, the argonians would probably start to use their scale and hide armors that have been proven to be effective fighting against ebony weapons and armor. I believe the book is called "The armorers challenge". 2/3 of the AD races are known for wearing light armor,and the other 1/3 race is known to usually wear mages robes, but when clad in armor they often wear light armors, this means they will less likely be slowed down in the mud and muck of Blackmarsh, though the argonians will still have a much greater advantage than them in this envirnomnent.
