The least armor is undoubtedly the plate armor. There are only a few dozen pairs, and more than half of them are seriously damaged and need major repairs. This is not a small number.
The popularity rate of this kind of armor is extremely low. Many regular knights pursue this kind of armor as their life-long goal. As long as there are suitable knights, Old Bolton would have already rewarded them to win people's hearts. How could it be left in a warehouse to get moldy?
Unless it is custom-made, it is not the knight who chooses the armor, but the person who chooses the armor. Eighty percent of the dozen or so pairs that are in good condition are not suitable for knights to wear due to their special size.
The remaining ones are scale armor, pierced armor and chain mail. Among them, scale armor and pierced armor are mostly used, and chain armor is less. In terms of defensive capabilities, they are all inferior to plate armor, but each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
It mainly depends on the craftsmanship and materials used. If enough materials are used, the defensive capabilities of scale armor and pierced armor are even better than plate armor in some aspects. If corners are cut, it is difficult to say.
The production level of the fish scale armor and iron armor in Bastille's inventory can only barely reach the pass mark, but it doesn't matter to Sean and the others. They are the first targets to be dismantled, and then they will be remade according to the new drawings.
There are ready-made nails, and as long as there are enough manpower, the nails can be produced very quickly - when anything is produced on an assembly line, the efficiency is astonishing.
Especially when this assembly line consists of nearly 3,000 people, the scale is huge. The young army is arranged in the middle and performs its duties without any chaos.
By the time the sun sets and the steaming steamed buns come out of the oven, dozens of special scale armors with uniform styles have been placed in front of Skullcrusher McGee.
On the first day of construction, all aspects are still being coordinated and run-in, mainly focusing on disassembly. Even the drawings of the armor are constantly being adjusted. It is already very good to be able to produce dozens of finished products. When the output is released tomorrow, the output will be geometric.
Double the increase.
Mikey swallowed the buns in his hands into his stomach in three mouthfuls. He wiped his greasy hands on his body again and again, making sure there was no trace of oil before he was willing to touch them. His eyes were intoxicated, "It's so beautiful, it's so beautiful, no matter what.
To think that the armor is so beautifully made, good boy, you gave me another big surprise."
"One advantage of scale armor and pierced armor is that the buckles can be used to adjust the size to a large extent. They are not so picky about body shape. The body shape does not differ by more than three models. They can be used universally and are easy to form a standard, even if they wear cotton clothes and leather underneath.
It won’t have much impact if you use double armor. It’s easier to wear double armor, but the protective power formed is still quite different.”
"If you wear a small coat, the local protection will be eight to ten stacks of armor, and the protective ability is no worse than plate armor. If you wear a small coat, it will only have four stacks of armor at most. The ability to defend against arrows is about the same, but it is not as effective against chopping and heavy weapons.
The defense power will be downgraded. Those with little strength will be worn together with the original leather armor, as a pair of armors. For some with more outstanding strength, a layer of chain armor will be added to ensure that they can withstand beatings like the giant Andis bear.
." The entire design was led by Sean from beginning to end, and he was very familiar with the technical parameters and performance of this armor.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Skullcrusher Mikey's eyes flashed and he nodded repeatedly. Just hearing this made his blood boil. He wanted to pull out his brothers, put them all on, and go out to fight.
"No need to fumble with those, that is the standard armor, worn by ordinary soldiers. Yours is here, specially made for you." Sean patted the armor that was placed alone. The style is no different from ordinary armor.
, are all newly polished, with the original color of wrought iron, blue-gray, and then wiped with fine tung oil and waxed, shining with a cold hard metallic luster, giving it a unique beauty.
Sean was not stupid enough to design a general armor for Skullcrusher McGee that would stand out from the crowd. It would be cool, and it could also highlight the general's position in the military formation at any time, and have the effect of boosting morale, but the positive effect is based on the general's bravery.
Under the premise, if you encounter a coward, the morale of the army will be fatal.
The most important thing is that doing so will point out the direction for the enemy, which will then lead to local long-range fire coverage or specialized targeting. No matter how strong the armor is, it cannot withstand a volley of thousands of arrows.
What's more, in this world, there are terrifying existences like champion knights who can take the heads of generals in an army of ten thousand people. The battle has not even started yet, and half of the leading generals at each level have been targeted and killed by others. This battle
It's basically impossible to fight.
Generally speaking, in addition to being cool and easy to use, the unique general armor has more advantages than disadvantages in terms of practicality. Sean is not planning to implement it in his own army. A standard armor similar to that of soldiers would be good.
The only thing that is the same is the appearance, but there are secrets inside. All officer-level armors will be tailor-made, both in size and weight, to optimize protection.
Take the armor of Skullcrusher McGee as an example. The standard scale armor only uses 972 iron-plated armor pieces and 360 fine scale armor pieces, weighing a total of 108 pounds.
For the Violent Mountain Legion, it is nothing, but for ordinary people, it is really heavy armor. Without the strength of a retinue, there is no way to think of wearing this kind of heavy armor to fight.
Mikey's general armor is even more exaggerated. It uses 1,482 iron armor plates alone, and as many as 720 thin scale armor plates. The leather and hemp ropes that fix the scales are also specially made and thickened.
, the weight has nearly doubled, reaching a terrifying one hundred and ninety-two pounds, which means that a knight-level humanoid monster like McGee can use it.
"Come, come, come, put it on and try it." Skullcrusher Mikey felt itchy like a child who got a new toy.
"Help Mr. McGee put on the armor." Sean himself also wanted to see the results of his design. Although it was only a temporary product, it was the result of their hard work, and armor is a matter of life. Before going to the battlefield,
If you can adjust to the best, adjust to the best, and you can save your life at critical moments.
This kind of heavy armor usually has a fatal flaw. It is troublesome to put on. Without the help of one or two people, it is basically impossible to put it on by yourself. When the Furious Mountain Legion is fully armed, each person will have to carry one or two followers.
Seeing that the two young soldiers wanted to directly wear the new armor for Mikey, Sean hurriedly added: "Bring the leather armor of Lord Skullcrusher and the re-woven mail armor together, and wear the armor according to wartime."
"Are you sure this is my leather armor?" Skullcrusher Mikey looked at the brand new leather armor. It was the right size, and the leather looked familiar. It looked like the skin of the giant Andis bear that he had hunted with his own hands, but it was a little different.
"Renovate it, it's not a sophisticated technology." To be honest, Sean resented the bearskin armor of Skullcrusher McGee. Half of the biochemical attacks every time they met came from this bearskin armor.
This is what Mikey has been wearing since the two of them met. I don’t know how long it has been since it was properly cleaned. The oil stains, dirt, and blood stains have all condensed and formed. It makes a loud bang when you knock it on, and it almost becomes a second layer of armor.
There is no one who is so dirty. It was cleaned and renovated, and the owner didn't even recognize it. It's completely normal.
What kind of general leads what kind of troops? The Berserker Mountain Legion has basically the same moral character as him.
For the sake of his own nose, Sean took the opportunity to peel off all their leather armor, soaked it with lime, used a stick to hammer, and then used a brush to scrub away the putty bugs that fell off each piece of leather armor.
There are only two kilograms if there are not three kilograms, and a school guard-affiliated engineer was specially deployed, but so far only one third has been processed.
"Not bad, not bad, it's much more comfortable to wear than before." Skullcrusher Mikey said happily. No one doesn't like new things. If you don't clean your leather armor, it's not because it's comfortable to wear, it's just laziness.
A layer of linen, a layer of leather armor, a layer of mail, and a layer of scale armor.
After layers of layers, except for a pair of eyes, Skullcrusher McGee can no longer see half of his exposed skin. His majestic figure has increased by two circles. He is really eight feet tall and eight feet waist. He is a human-shaped bunker. He goes to follow Andy.
The Giant Bear has no problem with hand-to-hand combat.
Walk slowly, walk quickly, trot, run wildly.
The entire campus was destroyed by McGee alone, and the whole school was filled with smoke and dust, and the ground shook.
Skullcrusher McGee once again proved with his actual actions that all great knights are monsters, especially guys with barbarian blood, who have a natural advantage in strength. In terms of strength alone, they are estimated to be close to the level of champion knights.
The reason why I use the word "estimate" is because Sean does not have the physical data of the champion knight, so there is no way to compare. However, there is no dispute that Skullcrusher McGee is the most powerful person Sean has ever seen.
The last test, that is, last summer, the Skull Crusher's strength was 4.9, which is infinitely close to 5. Don't think that 5 is a small number. This is the strength of five strong boys. Lifting a thousand pounds is nothing.
The power of five people added to one person and the combined power of five people are two completely different concepts, because no matter how individuals work together, the power is dispersed, but when it is concentrated on one person.
Sean has been training relentlessly since childhood, but his strength is only 1.8. Of course, this is because his body has not fully grown and his strength has not yet entered the explosive growth period.
The changes in this test were minimal, which troubled McGee himself. In the past, his strength continued to grow with age, and he surpassed most people without deliberate training at all.
Improvement has become extremely slow in recent years, especially last year. If he had not deliberately strengthened training in this area, not only would there have been no growth, but there would have been a regression.
Skullcrusher McGee may very well have reached the limit of his power.
Everything has its limits, and human strength is no exception. It involves all aspects of muscles, bones, ligaments, etc. The body's muscle mass is limited. Once it is fully developed, it will be difficult to grow it.
Don't mention the comparison between giant elephants and giant bears. There are differences in body size between the two sides, and naturally there are differences in base strength. Even if they have their own strength limits, it is impossible for a giant elephant to have the same strength as a giant whale if killed.
The strength limits of the Kentana barbarians are definitely different from those of the Andis and Byron people. There are even differences in the strength limits of each person.
Although Sean possesses the Brand of Fire, before he reaches the same level, Skullcrusher McGee is his teacher, so he cannot provide much help in this regard, and he can only rely on himself to explore.
