Quote:If you are going to reinforce mail armour the first place will be the chest where you are most vulnerable. Shoulder reinforcement is well down the list of priorities.Surely not in the case of cavalry, where the shoulders would be most vulnerable to a downward stroke from a spatha or equivalent long-sword.
Michael King Macdona
And do as adversaries do in law, -
Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
(The Taming of the Shrew: Act 1, Scene 2)
