RL Metal Armor MKII

<< < (2/3) > >>

maciek83:
armor from game is not a single plate of thin metal, it looks more like a solid few centimetres thic piece of metal, more like tank armor then medieval breastplate which would not stop any ap bullet

Marko:
I made this before i found this game. Working on some new ones now but they are all similar style, authentic to medieval age.

Dendito:
you made that? nice work Marko

Marko:
Thanks. When i saw this year armor requires cow hides, i smiled because it really does. It requires some leather for the straps behind the metal.

Also, i love the fact there is standard metal armor and Mark 2 metal armor since the fancy flutes really do make the armor tougher. Some archers challenged the armor guys one year at a Missouri ren-faire and lost. They thought that the flutes would be weaker and their Bodkin arrows would go right through.



But the armorers smiled and said "try and see!" so a fluted piece was set up as a target and an archer fired on of these babies and his arrow struck dead-on a flute...and bounced off lol. The metal was not even dented - only had an x-shaped scratch in it. So yes, metal armor MkII really is superior stuff.

I don't know any way to make metal armor bullet-proof but i assume AP ammo goes right through it, even in 2238. Check your wounds/scars.

Roachor:
When you have depleted uranium rounds that can swiss cheese an APC i doubt humans will have armour before they have forcefields.
