Armor anarchy.png

The average knight in the Anarchy period wore a chainmail over a sturdy gambesson. The legs were protected by wrapped and padded cloth and the head was protected by a chainmail coif and an open helmet. The only slight variation from the Uther period was that knights begin sewing the colors of their Lord’s heraldry into the gambesons or the rim of the chainmail. This began as a way to protect armors from tearing but ended up as a way to differentiate knights in the confusing battles during the Anarchy age, where brother fought against brother.

The entire thing required a squire to put on and was quite heavy. The armor required a lot of maintenance, but somewhat less than during the Uther period. It was something that was done daily by the knight’s squire.

Protection: 10
Dexterity modifier: -10
Usage: War, Battle, and Duelling.
