As much as I want ancient greek armor for my hoplite character or legionary armor for my roman, I can understand peoples ideas of a limited time frame. I find the armor/weapons in this game is around 700-1500ad which is pretty big. I find we either as Ulster said,lessen the timeframe and increase variety, or what I think which is increase the time frame.
We can make a server for ancient armor and one for medieval armor, this may create a Berlin wall like the siege/battle servers for example, but at least we'll be happy.
