Does anyone know if brigandine + cuirass (or breastplate) existed in 15th century? I know there was coat of plates + breastplate in 14th century and brigandine + plackard in 15th but I've never seen anything like brigandine + cuirass.

Essentially, are you asking if we know of any examples where they left the cuirass shiny metal and covered the plackard with fabric?

This one but with a full cuirass rather than a demi.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT
