You watch your leading officer make his way down the line of your fellow soldiers. Your fate and the fate of your entire unit rest on this veteran's word, and you find yourself relieved not to carry that burden yourself.
"We must fight!" your officer shouts. You adjust your Neck Plate Warrior armour, double-checking the buckles as he continues. "For our homes and for our families, we will fight until we can fight no more!" A resounding cheer rises as your fellow soldiers ready themselves for the charge. You draw your weapon, eager and afraid all at once.
The battle has begun.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury's Neck Plate Warrior is a gorget that sits around the neck, adding protection to the throat. An elongated front piece and shorter back piece are decorated with rivets and attach to shoulderguards via sturdy top-grain leather straps. Though designed to match Epic Armoury's 'Warrior' set, it is fully interchangeable with other Epic Armoury armours for complete character customization.
Leather straps tighten across the shoulders to secure the Neck Plate Warrior comfortably around the neck. Made of 0.04 in thick mild steel with top-grain leather straps and fittings, this piece is built to withstand LARP or historical reenactment abuse with regular leather and metal armour care.
Available in sizes Small and Medium/Large/X-Large.
HISTORY
- Also referred to as a gorget, which means throat
- Early versions during medieval times were typically worn under the breastplate and backplate to support the weight of the heavier plate armour
- Later versions were larger and designed to be worn over clothing
