Title: Landsknecht / doppelsoldner gear
Post by: Wayate on September 19, 2015, 09:57:47 pm
Hey,

I'd like to suggest some landsknecht / doppelsoldner themed stuff to go further into the one I like to play (black armor, flamberg, katzbalger). From wiki :

Quote
The German Landsknechts, sometimes also rendered as Landsknechte (singular Landsknecht, pronounced [lanʦ.knɛçt]) were colourful mercenary soldiers with a formidable reputation who became an important military force through late 15th- and 16th-century Europe. Consisting predominantly of German mercenary pikemen and supporting foot soldiers, they achieved the reputation for being the universal mercenaries of early modern Europe.

The lot of pictures from this thread are a great source of inspiration for a rework/new model of heavy Landsknecht armor.

But the thing this class clearly lacks is a medium/light armor and hat. Here is some example that would perfectly fit, as a matter or historical realism.

Now get someone to make models for it

Also, isn't this out of our timeline? cRPG isn't supposed to go past 1400 I believe.

thats actually penisarmor.  exagerated penisthings were highly appreciated back then,  kind of their humor.  some also had penispurses or simply huge fake cock armor parts.

and you cant blame them for their shitfaced crazy penisshowing lifestyle,  after all their job was to slaughter eachother.  better do that drunk,  showing off huge cocks.

Well, nothing is going to get done if you just post pictures. We can't just magically add pictures to the game that turn into armor.
