Surprised me too, but couldn't find a better picture :S

It must of hurt every time you got hit with that helm on.

[SacreDoom]

Double damage !

Killed you instead of protecting your noggin.

lol . . . new meaning to the term "brain bucket"

But seriously, i agree that they shouldn't go too far in the medieval knights-and-castles direction. I personally like the fact that they stay away from all the fanfare and stick to an iron age, rustic kind of feel.

Full armor kits would definitely revitalize the use of "wardrobes" though. I got no problem with that part, just the artwork

Well, could you make a quick sketch or anything, then?

I rather like the whole knight in shining armour thing. Just needs a horse with shiny barding.

we could always use both, hey? Have multiple pieces of armor with identical stats, made from same materials, but one version would be the rustic, dark, iron age or dark age style and the other would be the bright, shiny, destrier-in-barding and banners and trumpets middle age style.

lol, surely you jest? It takes all my artistic abilities just to decide which smiley-face to use when i make a wise-ass comment here . . . i'm having a suprisingly hard time finding pictures of iron age armor and weapons online... but what i picture in my head is more dark, earthy, lots of leather and furs, the typical image of the viking warrior. It would be a fun counterpoint to the polished, shiny disney-style knight. Even if both images are anachronistic (and largely mythical)
