Sub-Roman Britain (Cavalry etc)

[Matthew Amt]

I also tested my armour and I've found that leather armour is underrated. Even when shot at ten feet from a medevial crossbow the best that any ancient missile weapon could accomplish was either a bruise or a dent in the armour. Mail on the other hand, was easy to shoot into, expensive to maintain and make, and took far too long to fabricate.

Oh, boy, here we go again... You don't find it puzzling that almost all the soldiers, warriors, knights, heroes, and kings of Europe for a thousand years preferred mail? Just sayin'...
