      Your character wouldn't get much sleep, as its very hot in full plate armor when it's hot out, and it's very cold in it when its cold out. Big plates of metal are incredible heat conductors so they react to ambient temperature. I'd doubt anyone could actually get a full night's sleep in it

      @gwynbleidd1917 2 месяца назад

      @stefthorman8548 although most men at arms would be wearing chain maille and a gambeson underneath their plates, thats actually not primarily why you have padded/quilted armor underneath, and having a gambeson underneath your cuirass won't prevent it from conducting heat.. It will still get really hot under the scorching sun, and zap all the heat out of your armor in winter conditions. You wear a gambeson underneath for more protection primarily. Wear some plate right up against your skin with out thick padding and take a hammer to it. Tell me how much it protects you then lol

      I'm aiming for mid to late 15th century. This suit is a budget build, so I'm gradually tweaking it towards being progressively more accurate as funding permits upgrades. My next goal is to get a full cuirass so I can trade the hauberk for voiders.

    Why I prefer Brigandine & jack chain as it takes fraction of the time to don & you don't need a squire.
    Full plate is nice but try putting it on if jumped in the night.
    I'd rather less armour that is always at hand & why shields are so much better then people give them credit as even naked it is perfectly viable instance action armour. If you can't slap it on in under a minute on your lonesome, then I don't like it.

    • @robinswords
      @robinswords  5 месяцев назад +1

      I'm wearing an arming doublet which is unpadded. It's stout to help with supporting the armor and prevent chaffing, but offers no actual padded protection. With enough solid plate coverage, padding becomes largely unnecessary. Especially complex armors are actually hindered if you try to pad them out as their articulations have such tight tolerances to the body underneath.

      The cords? Arming points. You lace the armor to them. The straps secure it, but the points are doing a lot of work to keep them in place. If you've ever had to wear a kneepad and it keeps sliding down over time, arming points prevent that sort of thing.
