LES ARMURES

POIDS DES AMURES

Example:

Sir Miles is a large knight, weighing 210 lbs. He has a full suit of Chainmail and a crusader-style pot helm. His helm weighs 712 lbs. His Chainmail weighs 36 lbs with a weight modifier of +/- 6 lbs. Sir Miles weighing 210 lbs is 361bs heavier than 174 lbs resuiting in the modifier being doubled. (36/25 = 1.44 rounded up = weight modifier multiplier of 2.) Hence the full suit of Chainmail for Sir Miles weighs 36 lbs + (+6 x 2) = 48 lbs. It is assumed he will be wearing an arming doublet under his armour which weighs 8'/2 + (+1 1/2 x 2) = 11 1/2 lbs. Suited up for battle, Sir Miles is carrying a weight of 71/2 + 48 + 11 1/2 = 67 lbs. Add in at least a medium-sized "heater" shield and a broadsword, and we find he could be packing well over 70 lbs of fighting equipment alone!

ARMURE LEGERE

Armure légère

ARMURE LOURDE

Les armures lourdes protègent les bras, la poitrine, le dos, l'abdomen et l'aine..

Armure lourde

Note: La cuirasse en Plate et maille procure une protection pour les bras avec de la maille. Tous les autres types ne prévoient que la protection du torse (poitrine, l'abdomen et l'aine).

3/4 HEAVY BATTLE ARMOUR

Scalemail is Dark Ages armour, Chainmail is characteristic of the early Middle Ages (11th-12th century). A hauberk is a mail coat that provides protection to the entire body below the neck and to the knees. If a leg hit occurs, roll a D10, with 01-07 falling on the armour rather than the unprotected part of the leg.

3/4 HEAVY BATTLE ARMOUR

HEAVY BATTLE ARMOUR

Field plate and cavalry plate are fairly late models of full battle armour (15th century Renaissance). These types of armour are remarkably light in rela­tion to the protection they provide, especially field plate, which is designed specifically for battlefield fighting on foot rather than from the saddle.

HEAVY BATTLE ARMOUR

'Typically worn with arming doublet or quilted surcoat.

SUPER HEAVY BATTLE ARMOUR

Full chainmail is fitted from head to foot (13th century armour) and is easier to wear than a hauberk. Platemail is 14th century chainmail reinforced by iron plates at key areas and with an iron breastplate or a brigandine to guard the torso.

Note: Full cavalry plate and jousting armour are 15th century (Renaissance) protections. Such armour is a very late development and easily could be considered as not too likely to be available or, for that matter; even to be appropriate to most fantasy campaigns unless the Gamemaster feels it is acceptable.

SUPER HEAVY BATTLE ARMOUR

1Typically worn with arming doublet or quilted surcoat.

LES BOUCLIERS

SHIELDS & SHIELD FAILURES

'Shields are built to block, this is represented by the bonus to TSC% on the chance to block an attack.

2Objects at hand used for active shield blocks include such things as chairs, stools etc. 'This value is set at the beginning of the combat by the Gamemaster and can be in the range of 1. to 10.

Objects or shields that successfully block an attacker directly absorb the damage, which would have been inflicted on the defender. The defender will absorb any damage that exceeds the damage absorption of the shield. Every time the shield or object takes damage more than its absorption capac­ity, there is a 10% cumulative chance that the blow will destroy the shield or object. To find out if the shield has failed, the character makes a 0100 roll and if he rolls equal to or less than the percentage chance the shield fails. This chance remains after the combat unless repair is undertaken.

Example:

Gideon is attacked and successfully defends against the blow with his shield. The attack manages 10 points of slash damage. Gideon's shield, a Buckler is able to absorb 6 points of slash damage. The remaining 4 points of damage are taken by Gideon. Since the Buckler has taken more damage than its absorption capacity it has a 10% chance of failing. Gideon makes a D100 roll and rolls 54% the shield survives. However, if this had happened six times, the chance of the shield failing is 60% and the shield would have failed.

Each successful armourer roll will reduce the chance of failure of the shield by 5% x Crit Die result. A Critical Success will repair ail damage.

Key to Shield Table:

Prod Time: Average time needed to make the shield. The actual time was less, but an creating a shield was done in a series of steps that might require days, thus an armourer often worked on several shields at any one time.

Wt: Armour weight in pounds (lbs.).

Cost Typical cost of an average quality shield, stated in pennies. As in the case of weapons, shield may be superior and rated as +1, +2, or +3, which represents their ability to absorb extra damage. Such shields commands a higher cost.
