Shining/Polished/New vs Worn/Weathered/Used Armour
#10
Jurjen: Good point; I stand corrected. Considering that, we can expect to see some new pila, but probably a lot of "recycled" ones recovered after the battle is over.

And, taking Matthew's comments into account, there would probably be some wear and tear on them from marching as well -- getting dropped before digging the ditches for the night's camp, etc.
