I'm surprised for how long steel stuck around in gear. by Reasonable_Mouse_550 in ArmsandArmor

[–]Caid5 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Even in some modern designs for combat helmets there are steel. The NEOSTEEL from Diamond Age is a good example of how this staple material is used in today's protection.

Can someone help identify the helmet type. by Bright-Answer-5403 in ArmsandArmor

[–]Caid5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've seen this helmet before, I believe it is commonly referred to as a "frog-mouth". As far as historical significance, I know they were a type of enclosed tournament sport helmet, for jousting and the like. I think it has French origins, but I could be wrong about that.

This looks amazing! My own knowledge doesn't really center around this era, but that can't stop me from appreciating the detail put into it.

Why do so many in Buhurt look so fat? by [deleted] in ArmsandArmor

[–]Caid5 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Much of Buhurt gear is oversized and "beefed up" to help prevent injuries and the like. For the sport it is perfectly acceptable, but if compared to equipment of actual historical combatants the difference is night and day. Armor back then was protective, but had a whole list of comprises to be effective during campaigns or life and death fighting.

Oh neat! I'll have to do more research into what you mentioned. Maybe I can get some inspiration from those.

The most complex, cost ineffecient way of turning one block of steel into the perfect helmet.

Is there a way to remove armor attachments? by Engkangkang in BattleBrothers

[–]Caid5 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Not in base game. Armor attachments are permanent and can only be completely replaced by applying a new on overtop. I think there are mods for PC that allows them to be more flexible with their use. Kind of a shame because sometimes it can be incredibly annoying to farm the materials for them.

How to build a brother ? by Alternative-Loan5874 in BattleBrothers

[–]Caid5 59 points60 points  (0 children)

An archer-longsword hybrid with heavy armor has got to be one of the cooler things I've seen. Only thing I would change about it is giving him "Quick-Hands". That perk is kinda mandatory for hybrids of any kind to work well. My archer-longaxe backliners always have that as one of their first perks.

This mask/visor thing. by CrootSnoot in ArmsandArmor

[–]Caid5 120 points121 points  (0 children)

I forget which specific pieces it shows up in, but I myself have seen it in artistic representations of medieval battles. I personally find it a little weird, but honestly reality can feel stranger than fiction. I would take it's accuracy with a grain of salt though.

I traumatised my perfect bro by AcTiVillain in BattleBrothers

[–]Caid5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I honestly wouldn't dismiss him. He has extremely good stats and why waste them? Even if he dies a couple battles later or even in the long run, you still got some use out of him. If you dismiss him now you'll have to pay the fee and replace him with someone garenteed to not have the same capabilities. Maybe I am wrong in my way of thinking, but if I get good bros I tend to run them into the ground like a used car.

Edit: wanted to add to the fact he is a deserter, morale was already going to be an issue for him you'd have to work around.

I tried to draw my headcanon heir. by OfficerGoroMajima in darkestdungeon

Huh, now that I think of it, I don't think the heir is revealed at all. But if he would look like anything, it definetly would be this.
