Hudson Robinson
We have the same tastes dude, italo-norman and norman helmet are the best looking ones. Not the most effect tho

and the tlingit made my personal favorite shit out of erryone worldwide. lots of expert artisan craftsmanship went into their wooden and leather armors.
this armor is reinforced with chinese bronze coins acquired through the fur trade. they spread rumors that armors made with these coins were bulletproof, which tilted russians during combat at least once in history.

That shield is most likely wicker with a cowhide cover.

Literally why there's a position called a shield bearer. And why that person was usually the warrior/king's most trusted confidant.

Elaborate, just posting stuff I've saved off here
Samuel Reed
that's actually a valid way to write it, the Romans even had arguments about which way was more proper

650 is just fucking wrong. People were wearing helmets, mail shirts, padding, or nothing. "soft leather" and"fur" were NEVER armor in Europe until the buff coat. Leather got used as a facing material but not as a protective element.
1325 is fucking wrong. In fact, it somehow misses brigandine, coat of plates, and the entirety of transitional armor.
And it gets even more wrong, because plate limbs came in before solid breastplates. Unsurprising, because the limbs are far more vulnerable than the torso in mail+gambeson.
And then we skip to "early gothic." No. Gothic is a specific style, and wasn't universal. No mention of white armor. No mention of English style armor, which was distinct.
>tabard period
Made up term, no meaning.
>plate and chain 3/4
I've never seen examples of that. Plenty of examples of 3/4 plate though. Probably because that would be more protective, and both cheaper and faster to produce by that time period.

>phygrian armour
What the fuck is that and why did the Greeks adopt it.
Hudson Scott
Jesus Christ the armour must have been heavy if it was bronze. Kinda weird how they started with plate and moved away from it.
Michael Robinson
>Fur and soft leather
hahahahah
No nigga, mail, always mail, since like 300bc
Kevin Johnson
Probably because they most likely fought in that on chariots more often than on foot.

Joseph Bell
What's up with the thingy on his back?
Isaiah Brooks
I'm just guessing here, but its probably an arrow shield. You could probably shift it side to side to protect you from wherever you were getting shot from
Benjamin Lopez
This image is dangerously misleading, those all probably represent regular maille except the scale one.
Jonathan Sanders
I appreciate that info user, good to know
No kidding, I can imagine how loud they were about it too. Meanwhile the grain stores were low or the Goths were pressing on their borders and being ignored
And I thought it was strange too. Although I do see light infantry wearing it in some depictions I feel like no real time in history was like Conan.
I mean, there ARE different ways to do mail. I would not say it is misleading, just presenting possible alternate forms of mail construction. I know there are a few ways to create lamellar layering.
Jack Long
No way, they needed to be protected by the most advanced armor in order to use advanced weaponry. Like this fellow
