Damaged Segmentata, simulted combat

[Hibernicus]

Magnus: Sean, is this to show the lorica's durability to blunt weapons?<br>
<br>
Yes, to simulated weapons such as the rudis.<br>
<br>
I don't think the steel can't tell the difference betwen ash and rattan... <br>
<br>
After we make the repair I'll ask Britanncuus to let me strike him with an ash rudis...<br>
<br>
I also want to mount a seg on a shouldered post and strike it with a blade as well. The comparison will be interesting.<br>
<br>
The armor is certainly durable though even with an improperly made lobate hinge. Capable of withstanding one of those "..practices like bloody wars" of Vegitius<br>
