Deeds of Arms and Chivalry is a modification for Mount & Blade: Warband which focuses on the Hundred Years War between France and England, specifically during the early 15th Century.
Improved versions of the brigandine. The newer version optimizes resource consumption, and uses a simpler 3d model, to greater overall effect.
Made by AsherNitin.
Nice
I wonder how the riveting affect the brigandine structurally. Going by intuition alone, the "triangular" riveting for each band of plate seems to be a stronger attachment, though it could very much be the opposite situation in reality.
I think what I'm asking is why the two different styles of riveting in a brigandine?
The type of construction you describe with groups of three rivets didn't exist yet in 1429. It is indeed a better and stronger way of making a brigandine than this, and it is why you don't see the type of brigandine represented here anymore later in the century.
[Edit] Seems AsherNitin who made that pieces and studied brigandines a bit further than I did as a different opinion about that.
Amazing! I can't wait for the new update! Rarely there are mods set in The Hundred Years War let alone the 15th Century as a whole.
