I believe I may be able to shed some light on Argonian armors with my annoying habit of reading every book in every game. The Armorer's Challenge clearly mentions the Argonian armorer Hazadir's choice in outfitting his champion as: a collection of dusty, rusted lizard-scales. Armed with a spear from Hazadir's shop. While his shield was described as: a soft shield, as there was no metal trim to deflect it.

Its safe to assume then, that Argonians wear light-to-medium scale armor, prefer spears, and soft, non-metal shields. If Black Marsh has a standing army, that would be the standard fair of most, if not all, of the troops.

Also, the entire book Mixed Unit Tactics is devoted to describing the way that Khajiit fight in battle.

Hope that answers your question!
