To serve your lord, you are prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice. Upon the battlefield you await the coming violence, looking out upon the thousands at your side and the thousands more who stand opposed. You may very well die this day, but you have every intention of taking out a hundred soldiers before you do.
Your lord strides along the battlelines, shouting encouragement. Your Churburg Armour glints in the sunlight as he finally gives the call to charge--and with that decisive shout the battle begins.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Churburg Armour is a simple low-fantasy piece of armour protecting the front and back of the torso and abdomen. The plate rests at the waist and is sculpted to fit the body and add structural strength to the steel. This steel riveted piece has been treated with Epic Armoury's Epic Dark Metal coat to give the armour a rugged, antique finish.
The Churburg Armour is embellished with a wide ‘V’ on the front to deflect attacks away from the head. It is fully usable with Epic Armoury’s other metal work products, giving you the freedom to customize your character’s costume. Made of 1 mm thick galvanized mild steel and top-grain leather straps and fittings, this armour piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.
