Evolution charts of various breastplates, gauntlets, shields, polearms, hilts, and helmets:

Too bad the armours are from 1300 up.  :(

...also it doesn't seem to be very historically accurate. It says studded leather on the first picture  :mrgreen:

Well before that it was mainly mail armours and gambeson, only the helmets had a little variation/evolution I believe. So not as interesting.

I suppose. It's weird that they picked such a boring period as far as armour is concerned. Probably to save time  :lol:

I would love to get these two, though.

I was thinking of putting it there, in case it could influence design in a good way.  I'd feel like a dork double posting it now though, on such a small forum. :)
