Quick thing, cuirassier armor was bullet proof. That's actually where we get the term from, the smith would shoot the plate with a pistol as proof that it would protect the wearer. They ditched most of their armor because to resist gunfire they made it thicker, and thus heavier, making a full suit impractically heavy.
After quick research (more will be done, I only checked Wikipedia briefly lol), I have found conflicting reports of how effective plate armor was against bullets. I cannot recall what I watched but I remember someone saying it would take several inches of steel to stop a musket - which would support your point that armor was made thicker to be more resistant to bullets and that would make a full suit of such thick armor impractical. Maybe just a thickened cuirass or helmet would support their continued use, especially for cavalry because I assume horses helped support that extra weight. But that is only my guess, it still seems impractical to wear such heavy armor for regular use. Also, I have heard that same origin of the term "bulletproof" from the channel Shadiversity, which I'm guessing you got from as well. It can be plausible, I read that Napoleonic French regulations required cuirasses to be bulletproof against three shots at close range. A smith testing steel plates with a pistol sounds like it happened here! And the origin of the word coming from a French term helps support that: bullet = boulette, meaning "small ball," while proof comes from Latin "probare," meaning to prove. However, it was noted that this could never be achieved and thus the regulation had to be adjusted for cuirasses to be bulletproof against one shot at long range. This reflects how ineffective they protected against bullets. In the end, I think cuirassier armor reflected the changing battlefield: increasing use of firearms but still widespread use of melee weapons and changing battle tactics due to said weaponry. No matter what, you have inspired me to do more research! :) Cuirassier armor was one of the harder subjects for me to research for the video. I will get back to you!
@@alaskancosmic3012 arms and armor of the English civil war by Royal Armouries has a good bit about the topic. They have several suits displayed and the host discusses each in turn. Highly recommend for a crash course on cuirassier. Also, earlier plate armor WAS ineffective against firearms, that's why they became so widespread. But people with a bit more money still wanted protection, so the metal became thicker and tougher, but it was a question of what you can afford. I could go on and on, but the video does a better job than my wall of text.
Hey! So I took a look at that video you recommended and another video I found. Thank you for directing me to it! I really enjoyed the video and I learned a LOT more about how armor faired against firearms! You are right, armor was made thicker to deflect musket balls, which made it heavier and more expensive. I will pin your comment so others can read our full discussion! Thank you again for your input! :)
pair it with easy villager and villager recruit mod, easy villager lets you manufacture villager and mass produce iron farms, villager recruit lets you arm your steel weapons and armor to your villagers then command them to do army stuff.
thanks for sharing this amazing mod; btw do you know how to get silver, bronze and tin? i don't think there's ores for them, do u need an external mod just for those?
The armor designs are beautiful but I'm worried about the usefulness of it, I mean if diamond still exists the why use anything else for anything other than aesthetics. Personally this would fit best in a total conversion mod of some kind different types of steel and production and such
If they want better detail rather than the visuals, put modifiers for pierce, blunt, and slash damage. That's where the difference in armors shine. Not their total level of protection but the specific form of attack protection.
Very true, in-game mechanics that judge armor on a linear level of protection is a shared unrealistic detail across most video games. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is one such game that, in my opinion, successfully improved on that. And it would be cool if Magistu did that, but that would take a lot of time to create and balance and apply to a game that doesn't inherently have that mechanic. Armor Penetration somewhat remedies this, piercing weapons like the Estoc and crushing weapons like the Warhammer have this stat. Not entirely accurate but I applaud him for the effort :)
I think Dragon's Dogma is a cool example of how you can combine fantasy and reality on this matter. Certain enemies and armour pieces have different resistances to slashing and crushing damage, but there's still a base defence value involved. (And your characters' defence counts for double your armour's defence values)
This is, quite simply, one of the most exceptional mod reviews I've ever seen! Going beyond the mechanics and into the history of the items in this mod is wonderful. Also that castle looks great, it serves it's purpose and the decorations from Supplementaries work especially well.
Hey, thank you very much! I'm happy at least one person appreciates the historical portions of the video! :D I had to nerd out at least a little :P and also I'm happy the castle served its purpose well! Thank you again!
Gothic armor would be more useful against slashing enemies as it curtails smooth motion on the blade whereas knight armor (plate or full plate) is better against piercing as it offers no flutes that would provide sticking points.
I know it's to tell them apart but the flutes on the gothic armor were made to deflect attacks so it's very difficult for any attack to be completely clean so really there shouldn't be much difference
I didn't see this mentioned in the comments that I could see, so I wanted to mention a couple of important notes. First, steel smelts faster than normal - you can get 20 iron ingots converted to steel ingots instead of just 8 per piece of coal/charcoal. More importantly, on hard mode (and I assume hardcore as well), zombies and skeletons often wear rusted variants of armor and likewise have their own weapons. This makes them far more dangerous than usual. I also saw plenty of piglins, both living and zombified, using golden weapons and shields. So, just something to keep in mind! Personally, I like the change, but I thought it was worth bringing up.
Thank you, that means a lot to me! :D I actually do have other videos uploaded showing how I built that castle! But I would love to see what you come up with!
wow, this mod is quite impressive. one note i have is that the flame-bladed zweihander is wavy for more reasons than just cosmetic. the flamberge (wavy-ness of a sword) is supposed to function like a saw, allowing you to do more damage as you drag the blade along their flesh, or stab into them and drag it out. it would work like a gardening saw on a plank.
okay as an actual person who uses a flamberge in HEMA I can tell you that it is none of the above. A major factor in why it is flame shaped is because it looks cool and landsknechts were very obviously very fashion-focused. Otherwise, it is similar to other types of curved blades in that the curves may help in cutting through stuff.
Hey everyone! Thanks to @Fistfullofboomstick, I have learned a lot more about Cuirassier Armor! Typical armor from the Middle Ages (approximately 500 AD to 1500 AD) wouldn't have been effective for protecting against firearms. But in the 16th century, Cuirassiers wore nearly full armor protection that was made *thicker* and of higher quality steel to better deflect projectiles from firearms! But this also made it heavier and increased its cost. Due to the weight and cost, in the 17th century Cuirassiers discarded their limb protection and kept helmets and cuirasses (breastplate). Underneath the cuirass they wore a Buff Coat, a thick leather jacket that protected against swords (similar in function to Gambeson)! The Cuirassier Armor in Epic Knights depicts the Cuirassier Armor that used a Buff Coat in place of steel plates for the limbs. Thank you again @Fistfullofboomstick!!! :D
How to get the banner patterns in survival: Shepherd Villagers have a chance of selling them for fairly cheap, but quite curiously, these trades don't seem to level them up at all, and you can even change their profession after purchasing one, provided you haven't also used a normal trade.
A Kriegsmesser is not the term for all sword Messers. That is specifically the two handed longsword size Messer. There is also the Langes Messer and Grosse Messer, as well as others. But the Langes Messer, Grosse Messer and Kriegsmesser are the most common types.
Magnificent mod, magnificent review, magnificent info of every armor, recipes and historical info. Keep going, I just recently discovered your channel and now I'm subscribed immediately after watching your video.
Ngl, The shield's breaking instantly from explosions or a literal pure iron golem that would throw a punch that could pierce a stone wall would be a bit realistic.
I think my favorite armor I ever made was using the 3-8 chain pattern with spot-welded links and a leather strip cinch. Worn with oilskin "shirt" it was fairly light ( roughly 105 lbs distributed over a 5'11 male frame of slender build ( 145 at the time ) much more versatile than any scale or higher durability mail. Also with the 3-8 pattern and welded-closed 16-gauge links you are not piercing it easily. Sold the piece for exponentially more than cost and labor..
I feel like the Demonitisation Sword should be Two-Handed 0.5 instead of 1 As a HEMA practictioner, a decently balanced longsword of that type can more easily perform plays of sword in 1 hand compared to longer variants ALSO--a common misconception, even among experts (it was only last year that i learned of this too), is that the "Claymore" is actually a one-handed basket hilted sometimes single edged sword. This two handed one would be the "broadsword". A safer way i like to use for naming it is "Gaelic Greatsword/Broadsword"
Absolutely love the castle. Crenellations, center fortified keep, towers, MACHICOLATIONS, gatehouse (you better have added a murder hole), loopholes, inner bailey, its great. You are missing an outer bailey, curtain wall, and all that goes with that, along with a drawbridge (& moat whether filled with water or dry ditch), but it's good
I use it in Forge 1.20.4 and when i'm going to craft, the game crashes, i deleted all my mods and use this one only and the game always crashed when i was going to craft anything
Impressive video! This in-depth guide and review of the Minecraft mod showcasing realistic medieval weapons and armor captivated me. The attention to detail and historical accuracy truly elevate the gameplay experience. Kudos to Alaskan Cosmic for his insightful analysis and to the mod creators for their remarkable work. Highly recommended for medieval enthusiasts and Minecraft players seeking an authentic adventure!
I know I'm late, but I LOVE that you added all the stats to the armor and weapons; it's really helpful to know what exact protection/damage they have, and it helps to have references like this for my own mods!
About bulletproffness I would like to add that there were rondaches(also called rotellas or rodelas) particularly in the xvi century that were entirely made of steal used mainly by officers during sieges to protect themselves from enemy sharpshooters. They usually carried bulletproof armor as well, so, why the rotella too? you may ask. Well the thing is that there were three categories of armor at the time: non proofed, pistol proofed, and arquebus/caliver proofed; but there was no armor that could stand a musket shoot at close range. Theese versions of the rotella were to heavy to properly fight with them in close combat, so that's why non proofed rondaches were widespread too
0:11 then play kingdom come deliverance if you still didn't play it. Believe me. It's amazing but it's not a joke when i tell you. That the game might take you 20h until it click for you.
Quick correction on something said in the video, the vanilla armor cap is 30, not 20; Without another mod, you will not be able to see armor values above 20, but they *Are* there, and do function
@@Calamibee Technically the strongest armor is the Jousting Armor because it has the highest defensive stats but it also gives you the Slowness debuff. Thus the Maximilian Armor has the highest defensive stats without giving you any debuffs.
Excellent video, its hard to find detailed and in-depth reviews complete with explanations for minecraft mods. Plus the historical context you gave made the video that much more of a treat to watch
Fun fact: this mod is compatible with the Epic Fight mod, made by the same people. Essentially it expands the combat system into something more akin to Dark Souls combat. And Epic Knight adds even more weapons that have their own unique move sets in the Epic Fight Mod, so they work really well together.
@@LordCrate-du8zm I actually decided to find out for myself, and it is! The 1.20.1 Epic Knights release was automatically working with Better Combat's equivalent. Knives, swords, and halberds so far have all had their own animations.
Great mod overall, but when I try to use the custom patterns on banners, it doesn't appear on the banner. I have tried with sodium, optifine, with none, I have even tried without the two essential mods because maybe they were causing it but no.
Shields are defensive weapon that can be also used offensively. You can hit oponent with them quite effectively, depending on the type of shield. They were used to block projectiles and melee atacks, but also to cover your attacking hand with the weapon from injury. It could be implemented like the knockback resistance while wielding a shield. I would kinda like to see this features added. But mainly i would love to see compatibility of this mod with some resource packs like JohnSmithLegacy or Conquest.
Amazing watch! Never thought I'd find this great of a mod review, definitely putting this in the pack I'm playing with my friends and sending your review to all of them :D Liked and subscribed.
Kind of late to the vid :P but how tf does one get to know all of the recipes? I have been trying to find out some sort of list but cant find anything about it
I appreciate the suggestion! :) However, I am not a big fan of caramel so it wouldn't really fit my persona. If it was your idea, why not use it yourself! And may I ask, tutorial for the design of what exactly?
I was in a server with my friends with these mods and it was a blast we had twilight forest mowzies mobs epic knights epic fight medieval siege and more and it was so fun like we would make our own bases and raid each other and it was so fun like we had our own armys to invade each other
8:20 armour was still effective against firearms ar that time and people were advised use the pistols point blank if possible to increase the chance of penetrating
I think the mod developer created weapons made of bronze and other metals to be compatible with other mods that add those resources. If you are using a mod that adds bronze, silver, and other metals, it should work, but I cannot guarantee that. As for steel, as shown in the video you smelt Iron Ingots in a Blast Furnace to get Steel Ingots.
No, I don't think you can breed the humans in the Human Companions mod. You find them naturally spawning throughout the world living in their own houses!
Hey thank you!!! I appreciate the compliments 😁 it means a lot and it makes me want to keep going! And yes, I will be doing more mod reviews in the future!
first off: thank you for not beeing a screeching "HEEELLOOOO EVERYBODY!!! **moves head i circle while jumping and punching air in 3rd person view** minecraft youtuber while i search the internet for how to use the repair hammers in this mod second: why did you have to leave out the repair hammers? now i have to go and watch screechtubers mod spotlights...
Funny thing about surgoats is that they kinda started the entire plate armor fad as knights would plates to its inside for protection in a early brigaden style. And would kick start europes interest in plate armor.
Hey I made 2 weapon of Steel and killed few zombs but my durability bar of those weapon not showing in the hotbar. I thought they dont have that feature. However, in this video I can see weapons have durability bar. So, whats wrong with my one?
when i download it it says "Mod magistuarmory requires architectury 8 or above" and "Mod magistuarmory requires cloth_config 10 or above" what do i do?
I will let you guys know, if you have curseforge as an app, please uninstall it. That shit is a crpytominer, i only visited their google page and they took 500mb of my memory within a second, even tho everything was loaded in. If you ever get a mod from there and your PC runs slow, get rid of the mod, and if that dont work, well, just reset to factory your PC. someone should really sue curseforge for cryptomining without the user's consent bruh, they taking basically money from me.
Can I download this to java or Bedrock? I am trying to start up a world with medieval mods so my friends on Xbox could play with them, but they can only play bedrock because they're on Xbox.
it is taking every fiber in my body to prevent myself from mentioning draconic evolution, infinity stones, averita, lost infinity stones, and things like that( i really like op stuff do i? after all, i made around 60 pages of op ass abilities and weapons and 10 pages of lore for them)
I recorded on 1.18.1 (that was the latest Minecraft version when I started recording). You can report bugs on the CurseForge page for the mod or even the mod creator's Discord channel! :)
I think I can ask this here but, how do you add decorations to the armor? I see many decorations available but i dont nkow how to ut them on. Minecraft 1.20.1
And what about the greathelm, it's supposed that it can't be crafted but it IS on the mod and we don't know how to obtain it. I guess that it could be obtained from a dungeon or something
hey i add this mod to my minecraft world but the textures for armor and the 3d weapons are messed up the 3d parts for the helmets are all messed up and messed the helmet up and the 3d weapons are off my hand
Now i think about it, on 9th grade we were doing a quiz about history and it was a jumbled letters and it contains the letters (a d k r s g e a) and the correct answer was "Dark Ages" and i wrote: "Dark Sage"

If they want better detail rather than the visuals, put modifiers for pierce, blunt, and slash damage. That's where the difference in armors shine. Not their total level of protection but the specific form of attack protection.

@@LordCrate-du8zm I actually decided to find out for myself, and it is! The 1.20.1 Epic Knights release was automatically working with Better Combat's equivalent. Knives, swords, and halberds so far have all had their own animations.
Great mod overall, but when I try to use the custom patterns on banners, it doesn't appear on the banner. I have tried with sodium, optifine, with none, I have even tried without the two essential mods because maybe they were causing it but no.
Shields are defensive weapon that can be also used offensively. You can hit oponent with them quite effectively, depending on the type of shield. They were used to block projectiles and melee atacks, but also to cover your attacking hand with the weapon from injury. It could be implemented like the knockback resistance while wielding a shield. I would kinda like to see this features added. But mainly i would love to see compatibility of this mod with some resource packs like JohnSmithLegacy or Conquest.
like for "demonetization sword". Sword that still hurts you, no matter how sharp it is
It could be dull as heck but it will still hurt you even through the internet xD
Amazing watch! Never thought I'd find this great of a mod review, definitely putting this in the pack I'm playing with my friends and sending your review to all of them :D
Liked and subscribed.
Wow thank you so much! :D I appreciate you sending them to your friends! I hope they all enjoy it as much as you did too!
first thing i noticed is your castle and how
*chef's kiss*
the battlements and murder holes are actually functional for minecraft archery
Epic Knights + dummy + Epic fight + mobhealth + supplementaries = Minecraft crash
:)
The mod is also aveilable four Minecraft 1.20 but onli on minecraft poket edition. 😅😢
Kind of late to the vid :P but how tf does one get to know all of the recipes? I have been trying to find out some sort of list but cant find anything about it
I am quite late but since you like this area of history have you ever tried Kingdom Come Deliverance?
The lance should have a high chance to knock a player off horseback
How about Kaer Amel (caramel) for the name? Also, tutorial for the design? Yes!!!
I appreciate the suggestion! :) However, I am not a big fan of caramel so it wouldn't really fit my persona. If it was your idea, why not use it yourself! And may I ask, tutorial for the design of what exactly?
@@alaskancosmic3012 in the beginning you asked if we'd like a tutorial for building the castle. That is what I referred to.
Oh yeah! I am currently in the works for that castle tutorial! However it will be delayed a little bit for personal reasons, but it's coming!
I was in a server with my friends with these mods and it was a blast we had twilight forest mowzies mobs epic knights epic fight medieval siege and more and it was so fun like we would make our own bases and raid each other and it was so fun like we had our own armys to invade each other
That sounds so amazing!!! :D I need to try that combination of mods myself!
I hoped that they add more varieties to bows and arrow. It would be epic to play this in a big server with medieval faction and kingdom wars honestly
8:20 armour was still effective against firearms ar that time and people were advised use the pistols point blank if possible to increase the chance of penetrating
I installed this mod and don't have steel or bronze etc to mine. Can't get any ingots or whatsoever. Can anyone help?
I think the mod developer created weapons made of bronze and other metals to be compatible with other mods that add those resources. If you are using a mod that adds bronze, silver, and other metals, it should work, but I cannot guarantee that.
As for steel, as shown in the video you smelt Iron Ingots in a Blast Furnace to get Steel Ingots.
also can we breed humans in human companion mod
No, I don't think you can breed the humans in the Human Companions mod. You find them naturally spawning throughout the world living in their own houses!
Demonitization sword, XD. Thanks for the video!
Man,this channel is soooo good,but it is underrated , you could have more subscriber your voice is so relaxing also do more mod review😃
Hey thank you!!! I appreciate the compliments 😁 it means a lot and it makes me want to keep going! And yes, I will be doing more mod reviews in the future!
first off:
thank you for not beeing a screeching "HEEELLOOOO EVERYBODY!!! **moves head i circle while jumping and punching air in 3rd person view** minecraft youtuber while i search the internet for how to use the repair hammers in this mod
second:
why did you have to leave out the repair hammers? now i have to go and watch screechtubers mod spotlights...
Why i couldn't apply banners with armor? And why doesn't knights little feather don't show up when i put it on my self
An excellent and interesting review, without hypocrisy and simulated emotions. It was nice to watch, thanks!
Funny thing about surgoats is that they kinda started the entire plate armor fad as knights would plates to its inside for protection in a early brigaden style. And would kick start europes interest in plate armor.
Your are right! I believe that early brigandine-like armor are called a coat of plates! Great additional information! :)
@@alaskancosmic3012 Yeah, european medieval plate armor are a special interest of mine. I like others too like chainmail and gambeson
@@trygveblacktiger597 European medieval armor is just so fascinating! So much to learn and so much ingenuity in it! :o
Would be amazing if it was compatible with Rlcraft
Hey I made 2 weapon of Steel and killed few zombs but my durability bar of those weapon not showing in the hotbar. I thought they dont have that feature. However, in this video I can see weapons have durability bar. So, whats wrong with my one?
when i download it it says "Mod magistuarmory requires architectury 8 or above" and "Mod magistuarmory requires cloth_config 10 or above" what do i do?
I will let you guys know, if you have curseforge as an app, please uninstall it.
That shit is a crpytominer, i only visited their google page and they took 500mb of my memory within a second, even tho everything was loaded in.
If you ever get a mod from there and your PC runs slow, get rid of the mod, and if that dont work, well, just reset to factory your PC.
someone should really sue curseforge for cryptomining without the user's consent bruh, they taking basically money from me.
Can I download this to java or Bedrock? I am trying to start up a world with medieval mods so my friends on Xbox could play with them, but they can only play bedrock because they're on Xbox.
This mod got armor more accurately than in Hollywood movies!!
it is taking every fiber in my body to prevent myself from mentioning draconic evolution, infinity stones, averita, lost infinity stones, and things like that( i really like op stuff do i? after all, i made around 60 pages of op ass abilities and weapons and 10 pages of lore for them)
Sword cant provide protection agaisnt projectiles
Mordhau player parrying arrow on background:
I am playing on 1.19.2 java forge but the banner patterns won't show up on the banner only the shield
I recorded on 1.18.1 (that was the latest Minecraft version when I started recording). You can report bugs on the CurseForge page for the mod or even the mod creator's Discord channel! :)
Is it really that hard to pronounce cavalry right?
And stiletto wasnt carried into battle. Those were Rondel daggers
I think I can ask this here but, how do you add decorations to the armor? I see many decorations available but i dont nkow how to ut them on. Minecraft 1.20.1
Does anyone know if this mod will work with Better Combat? Epic Fight isn't up to date with the current version of Minecraft
since im using this mod on 1.12.2 i dont have blast furnace, how am i supposed to get steel
Hello.
I want to ask you question
How i can Make the epic knights weapons
Like making the halbard to have spear animation?
And what about the greathelm, it's supposed that it can't be crafted but it IS on the mod and we don't know how to obtain it. I guess that it could be obtained from a dungeon or something
I dont know if this has been discovered or not, but the banner patterns can be bought from Cartographers in villages.
I want these Minecraft knight npcs and shields but i only have those on DL for Mike Craft
This is what minecraft needs
sad that nobody represents the husits
This is cool i download it
This video was of great help for me. You are very underrated! Subbed
hey, do you know if this is compatible with the epic fight mod? cool castle btw!
This mod is must have with cosmetic armour!
How do you make bronze and tin,i have only been capable of making steel and there Is no info on making these
Personally I more of a fan of the ancient times and napoleanic Era with the time of bayonet charges and muskets.
28:07 i wish it was more of a spear thana jousting lance. Tbat way you could possiy throw it too. Or have both
could I download this also on A console with A USB?
I don't think so, it is only meant for Minecraft Java Edition on the PC
hey i add this mod to my minecraft world but the textures for armor and the 3d weapons are messed up the 3d parts for the helmets are all messed up and messed the helmet up and the 3d weapons are off my hand
Now i think about it, on 9th grade we were doing a quiz about history and it was a jumbled letters and it contains the letters (a d k r s g e a) and the correct answer was "Dark Ages" and i wrote:
"Dark Sage"
The Dark Sage, a greatly influential person in the history of our world xD
@@alaskancosmic3012 That's.. i don't know if that's a bad thing or no..
@@NasusGamer If you are talking about the Dark Sage in Yu-Gi-Oh!, I honestly didn't know about such a character until I looked up "Dark Sage" lol
@@alaskancosmic3012 XD i actually know nothing about yugioh other than it being a card game and card battle anime.
my questions is why blue and green ehh
red and gold more better. its sad that after all these years minecraft still hasnt made a gold color
Norman Naselhelmet in Minecraft looks really weird because of the block design xD
Is it a full-fledged separate mod compatible with Epic Fight or an addon for it?
I like mod and addon think you so much brother so I play kingdom empter day 100 yaaa😂🎉
hey, how do you get the rusted armors if at all possible, cool mod thanks if you see this in advance
Great tutorial. Really good worck. Like and new sub.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it! :D
8:55 The crusade knows no bounds!
Haha it sure doesn't! 😆

Hold on, in the french version of Minecraft horse armor is called caparison
Flame bladed sword has Another name. Which is called the Flamberge in Germany.
