    "The Templar is truly a fearless knight, and secure on every side, for his soul is protected by the armour of faith, just as his body is protected by the armour of steel. He is thus doubly armed and need fear neither demons nor men." -St Bernard de Clairvax

    For those wondering what those sets of armor are:
    1. Early XVII century Savoyard-style three-quarters cuirassier's munition armour (a type of a mass-produced armor).
    2. Early XVII century Arquebusier armor, consisting of elbow gauntlet, a cuirass and a lobster-tailed pot helmet (Pappenheimer).
    3. Early XVII century English pikeman cuirass with morion-type helmet.
    4. End of XIV century Churburg-style armor, one of the early types of plate armor, with a bascinet helmet and Hundsgugel (Dog's face) visor.
    5. That's a terrible reconstruction of XV century Milanese armor I guess, due to assymetrical spaulders and a hook on the right side of the breastplate, but the assymetry should be focused on making the left side more armoured, and not the right, that bascinet helmet is of late XIV and early XV century, while white armor, which is an armor uncovered by cloth, started appearing in the third decade of XV century, and the brestplate shape is hideous, the armor is ugly and historically inaccurate.
    6. Early XIII century chainmail (based on how short the mail hauberk is compared to earlier chainmails) and an enclosed helmet, known also as early great helm.
    7. That's some strange set of armor consisting of plate armor of late XIV to early XV century, a cuir boulli breastplate (perhaps?) with a chain suggesting rather first half of XIV century, and a great helm from second half of XIV century with a crest and a torse (that fabric at the back of the head), suggesting purely representational and tournamental use, it wasn't used in combat.
    8. Late XVI century corselet armor. Both armet-type helmet, assymetrical spaulders with left side of the body better protected, and a hook on the right side of the breastplate suggest Italian origin or at least style inspiration.
    9. Late XVI century parade armor "alla Romana", basically a XVI century imagination of an ancient Roman armor.
    10. That's some kind of ceremonial armor but couldn't find any info about it.
    11. XVII century Winged Hussar's armor with szyszak-type helmet, a type known elsewhere as zischagge or aformentioned lobster-tailed pot helmet. Worth to mention that these huge wings were only part of ceremonial equipment and in such a form only in XVIII century, when Winged Hussars served only as representational unit and served no combat role.
    12. Late XVI century parade armor of Erik XIV of Sweden.
    13. Early XVII century heavy cavalry three-quarters armor
    14. Second half of XVI century, a truly magnificent full plate armor of the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania Sigismund II August.

    1:07 Portugue suits of armor some parts can be found in the france museum.
    D. Sebastião had one similar, it was a uncle's gift to him, it has the gold from the colonies embedded in the armor.

    The first set of armor is actually really good. It was basically the latest armor made as it was designed to stop firearms. One account had the man shoot the face twice with a pistol and said it did nothing.

    I have a question for the specialists here : what is the metal bit that poke out or the chest plate at 0:17 ; 0:26 ; 0:38 and 1:07 ? What were they used for ?
    These armor sees be used as a parade armor and decoration for the nobility and I don't think they were really used for a fight. Since all decorations and details serve no purpuse for a battlefield. I may be wrong.

      They were used for resting your lance on hence the reason they only appear on cavalry and parade armour (as you said).
