greave's

Postby ninja_yodeler » Tue Apr 05, 2011 12:21 pm

NOTE: im sure there was already a thread about this but ive tried a lot of different search combo's and cant find it, though if anyone can find it and post link so a mod could merge it, that would be great.

to start. as we (might) already know, greaves were an important part of roman armory, which depending on the period of germanic history the game is based on, greatly influenced the german culture due to slaughtering, massacareing and conquering its people.

so why do we not have greaves?? a few items are:

soldiers greaves: skill req: steelmaking. item req: steel bar x4 <2 for each leg> string x3

leather grieves: skill req: leather working: item req: hardened leather x6 string x3 <like the one's achilles wears in the movie TROY

that is all, i dont particularly think that their should be bronze one's because just 2 types is enough
EDIT: bronze greaves: skill req: metal working. item req: bronze bar x4 string x3
hitpoints are determined as per usual with armor.
go in the leg slot- can be worn over any clothing.


after thought: although its not greave's, achilles helmet from TROY would be cool to :mrgreen:

if there is anything else you would want to know about the idea, please just ask.
if your only going to troll this thread, please just dont.

again, if you could find the other thread about this it would be great, i searched but did not find :(
EDIT#2: this just came to me, but maybe nettle should not be allowed into this like with fishing line, perhaps only hidestrap can be used for these items :mrgreen:

Armor is pretty strong in the game already. I suppose they would fit in with a small rebalance of armor.

Why no bronze, though?

i know armor is plentiful, but it always sort of bugged me that there was no leg armor apart from pants- also if they were to to it right then it has the potential to look mad

as to no bronze, well i suppose there should be as a lot of the other kinds of armor have a bronze version, and the romans actually used bronze in their's, but.... it just seems to much to have a leather, and 2 kind of metal for the same thing.
but if i need to, ill edit it into the OP. :|

Unless they changed it, there ARE greaves.

The only leg armor is Leather Pants.
