Heinlein’s power suits, shiny knight armor, star wars storm trooper uniforms. Uniform’s and armor make the man, at least some of the time. I recently came across two articles on armor, old and new, which might fill in some research gap for anyone writing about combat.
Ever wondered how many pieces of gold it takes to suit up a modern soldier? Here you go.
For those people with more historical inclinations, a page of photographs of medieval armor and a diagram outlining what each piece is called might just be useful, eh?
Enjoy!
