Thanks, I needed some new nightmare fuel. This is great!
Had to cross post for historyartifacts.piefed
Nice glasses, NERD. Shouldn't you be in the LIBRARY instead of the battlefield? Hahahaa--
-me getting stabbed in the chest with an ornate sabre
battlefield weapons are not ornate - ceremonial weapons are ornate.
I figure the same would be true for that armor
horns are dealbreakers - that thing is a liability on a battlefield - you get hooked and knocked down and there goes your head
This helmet is very popular in Chivalry 2. Hard to imagine what the designer was thinking
I had no idea this was a real helmet until now
Crazily enough, horned helmets were largely costumery at that point in time, though comparably rare at that.
The usual ones that people associate with Vikings (et al) had in fact died out as a tradition a couple hundred years before there were any viking going on —and we have Wagner to thank for the confusion.
Still. Bugs as Brünnhilde has lived rent-free in my head for... going on 40yrs. 🤓🤙🏼
Probably thinking "intimidating", and it's certainly that.
Thank you. That was a fine trade. I have this funny feeling we'll meet again soon. And we'll make another fine trade, of course!
Wasn't he in Good Omens ?
