If you have ever seen me in-game chances are I was using the Milanese armor together with the Great Bascinet. Long story short I got annoyed at how the Great Bascinet had no rigging, and decided to fix that myself (not the hard way mind you).
So I copied a rigging of one of Narfs packs, pasted it on and from what I saw it worked fine. At the same time I decided to remove the besagews (those round thingies) from the milanese armor set.

Anyhow, the 'milanese set' is not really milanese, it's french. Well it is milanese, but it was made in french style for a german count. Confusing I know. So my proposal is;
Paste some rigging on the Great Helm
Remove the besagews from the milanese set because they're piss ugly
Rename the armor to 'French Plate'
If the devs are too lazy, I have a brf file with this all done. All credit goes to Narf and whoever made that great helmet.
