Whenever I see characters from DnD and similar fantasy tabletop games, when dealing with armor it's always the same late medieval/early renaissance kit for the armored players, or barbarian outfit for the more melee ones, and I just have to say, why? Where the fuck are my bronze armored Mycenaean knights???





Get the fuck out of my face ornate steel over a leather outfit, I want my guy to be wearing literal sheets of bronze hammered into shape and fucking sewed in place, with just a toga and some fucking straw underneath!

Hell, I would even take roman lorica segmentata armor, I mean, how fucking cool is to have a legionnaire in your party?

Extremely so I say!

Barbarians shouldn't be the only exception, make any armor from history yours!
