So the beret is the only awesome thing?

That doesn't look practical at all.

I think it does. The helmet could just be a stalhelm.

So the beret is the only awesome thing?

Plus the weapons, vehicles, camouflage, and uniforms, of course.

According to Murphy

The side with the fanciest uniforms loses.

Isn't it just a myth that they ever carried those things in battle?

It's no myth, the Polish Winged Hussars used them because in the wind they would generate a loud whistling noise that will annoy the opposing horse and make 'em crazy.

Wouldn't that annoy the riders horse too?

Incase you didn't know, all animals can be trained, and can adapt, if that wasn't the case the horses would be annoyed people were riding them and would try to kick them off every 3 seconds.

Now I wonder who would wear that. Seems like an expensive piece of armour.

A noble maybe?

I mean even for a noble it looks pretty damn good....This got me thinking.
I'm going to look up how rich an noble was in those days.

Why is the left shoulder armor plate flared up?

The armour flares up there to protect any attacks aimed at the neck, or attempts to protect.

Some of the richest people in the history of the world were nobles in Europe in the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries. John of Gaunt had a personal net worth of $110 billion, and most extremely expensive suits of armor costed nowhere near a fraction of that much, as you might guess.

It is supposed to be a ceremonial armor, so it most likely was never used in combat. Nevertheless, it looks incredibly nice.

But in the USA they never had Knights

[TORN]

So they can't display armour of knights?

i'm pretty damn sure Belgium didn't have lions but we still have them here set up in a museum.

[Killington]

They have to display armour of other countries' knights
