RFB Fighter Greaves

You are laughing too loud. You realize it must be scaring your enemy, because no one wants to face you on the frontline anymore. They think you are crazed. Maybe you are, because the adrenaline of being in a battle has left you feeling drunk with exhilaration.

If no one will come to you, it’s time to bring the fight to them! One poor soldier desperately strikes at you and you feel the thud of his sword against your RFB Fighter Greaves, but it hardly makes a scratch. You see the terror in his eyes as your laugh fills the field and you bring the strength of your axe down upon him.

You are Raynor Ironshood. Let them fear you. Let them all fear you.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Ready-for-Battle Fighter Greaves are fancy leather greaves designed to protect the calves. The armour is constructed from leather oblongs cut from chrome-tanned, plated leather, riveted with brass studs onto soft split-leather. The armour is secured to the calves by sturdy leather straps and iron buckles.

This armour is hemmed with additional soft split leather to keep the armour from deforming with excessive wear. The armour is fully interchangeable with other Epic Armoury products, and is light with a distinct, neutral style that will fit with almost any world or character you wish to take on your first adventure.

HISTORY

• Inspired by “brigandine” armour from the Middle Ages, but lighter without the usual metal plates riveted into the armour
• Inspired style came into wide use during the 15th century
