Did they Crusader alliance have gear the entire time?
or did they run out at the end?
Or did they just get their asses kicked fair and square?
They ran out of gear at the end of the battle in Aab. Probably 100 or so free-kills. Lordly gear otherwise, no matter how much Casimir cries that Nords had better gear (SUPER LORDLY HAXXED GEAR)
They ran out their better weapons a little earlier in both fights, but had loomed heraldic mail almost all the way through (really all the way at Mijayet). Since the fighting was always at the village, they had no trouble looting new ones off the ground. Our heaviest infantry was a little heavier than theirs, but we also had lighter troops, and some of their weapons were more expensive than ours, so all in all gear levels were roughly equivalent. They also had just as many men on the field.
They got their asses kicked, all right.
