I found "The Warlord" on Amazon but all they had was a Brazilian dvd! It's in English, but with Portuguese subtitles. However, you can switch the subtitles off and it's the same as an American or British copy.
This is another one where for a change they got the armor right, even its social implications. Chrysagon, the warlord, has the latest hauberk with full-length sleeves and hem almost to the ankles. His brother, the lesser knight, has an old-fashioned Hastings-style hauberk, knee length with short sleeves. Bors, the armiger, has a sleeveless mail vest. The common warriors have leather or padded coats studded with bits of metal. Pure 11th century.
