Would suit it more now! Edited February 20, 201411 yr by Karranthain
February 20, 201411 yr I've been watching a bit the previous thread, and I see a lot of REAL european-ish medieval armor...and since this is a fantasy rpg game, maybe armor could also be more imaginative...(I really hate those japanese rpg full with colourful and with unefficient look). and since this is a multi-racial game I would like to see some distinctive armour and weapons...when I think about some creative armors morrowind comes to my mind...also I would like to see more tribal looking gear and a Full Samurai armor
February 20, 201411 yr There have been plenty of Non-European and really imaginative designs in these topics, here's one of the cool examples: Edited February 20, 201411 yr by Karranthain
February 21, 201411 yr Mongolian lamellar armor. Swedish armor. Hungarian zischagge from the 1560's Ottoman armor A couple of bows. Mongolian sword and an elegant katana. Edited February 21, 201411 yr by Labadal
February 21, 201411 yr Spanish Conquistador. Desiderius Helmschmid, Helmet of Emperor Charles V, c.1540, Patrimonio Nacional, Real Armería, MadridLove the design of this helmet, although it seems like you would have a hard time to see anything. Think it's Russian.Byzantian armor.Swedish royal armor.Helmet of Gustav Vasa 1496-1560
February 23, 201411 yr I wonder what beautiful bows exist. Remember: Argue the point, not the person. Remain polite and constructive. Friendly forums have friendly debate. There's no shame in being wrong. If you don't have something to add, don't post for the sake of it. And don't be afraid to post thoughts you are uncertain about, that's what discussion is for.---Pet threads, everyone has them. I love imagining Gods, Monsters, Factions and Weapons.
February 24, 201411 yr The boots look a bit high, but otherwise good stuff. No real surprise; Warhammer tends to have some pretty amazing artwork.
February 24, 201411 yr The boots look a bit high, but otherwise good stuff. No real surprise; Warhammer tends to have some pretty amazing artwork. Indeed! It's decidedly fantasy, but fairly understated and practical. Here's an alternate take:
February 24, 201411 yr As far as MMOs go, Warhammer: Online definitely had some of the most practical armor/equipment designs. And that's in a genre of games in which the design of equipment has the most incentive to merely convey "epicness" and make the character feel special while ignoring any and all practicality of design. 8P Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u

February 26, 201411 yr Hungarian zischagge from the 1560's Its is an Ottoman "Chichak" helmet Byzantian armor. It is looks like an armor of Varangian guard, yeah still from ERE.

February 27, 201411 yr Hungarian zischagge from the 1560's Its is an Ottoman "Chichak" helmet ZIschagges were adopted by Hungarians (and Poles) due to the fact that they fought against the Ottoman Turks. The patern on this example looks islamic, though. Edited February 27, 201411 yr by quest1on

February 27, 201411 yr What is it about capes that make capes so awesome? ... I dunno. There's just something about the way they jut out into the ocean and are sometimes treacherous to sail around... Ohhhhhh, caaaaapes. Right... o_o Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u
