depleted uranium shouldn’t be illegal

I’ve been tricked, I’ve been backstabbed, and quite possibly, bamboozled

Full plate is also much better distributed over the body than modern armour tbh

@Storin it is

Most soldiers inc me know taht one day will ahve a host of knee, ankle, back problems because of the weight tbh

@A Big Gay Baby that's the one

@A Big Gay Baby cheating

the dude is literally wearing a peasant helmet

Already destroyed one of my knee ligaments <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

Modern plates in plate carrier stops even a 1250 pound crossbow won't go through more than a few centimeters.

not a helmet that matches the rest of the armour

it's a salet

Not true louis

Doesnt look like impossible weight now does it

@Storin yes true

That is a myth spread by dickheads in the private sector who fail to mention that plate type is relevant

It's about the speed not the weight.

You get 3 different main grades of body plate

The first 2 will do jack shit

@Storin no shit

the dude's helmet just has the visor removed

exactly

thats cheating

the breathing problems associated with a helmet

If you don't have the class III or whatever it is called you aint wearing body armour tbh <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

along with its vision problems

I'm talking about real IIIA level plate.

are integral to understanding the difficulties of wearing armour

Now important destination here is regular plate armour for combat and Tourney Armour for jousting. That's actually super heavy shit designed to hunker you down to your horse's back with has much weight as possible so you dont fall from the lance strike @SkeF

tbh running in CFO with a respirator on is probably the hardest thing I ever did tbh <:shrug:349342983763656705>

You can not breathe for shit

it's an obstacle course

@SideTracker and then your horse breaks a leg and you die if it gets even slightly knocked off blance

There was a knight who did his exercises in his armour and one of them was monkeybar climbing a ladder leaning against a tree from underneath

@Lucienne d'Anwyl that's why they where special breeds of work horse

There’s a video of someone doing it but I wouldn’t be able to find it now

But it wasnt perfect

i think youd get arrested

When they show blokes sprinting about in videogames i'm just like bollocks <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

running outside wearing one of those
