Everyone knows armor that has wing means you go faster.
6ReplyJust to say - the Polish nobleman had a duty to have equipment on their own. The Polish crown didn't pay anything for this nor for the service. If the crown require money on war, the parliament ( of nobleman) had to approve tax on themselves
5ReplyReminds me of an episode of Murdoch Mysteries, Game of Kings.

Was it my comment on your last Post that made you post this?
4ReplyNo, but it was a good suggestion. I had a whole cache of photos to sort through, and just happened to get to the armor before I saw the comment.
