@vitalis hey Vitalis what do ya think of Early Modern period where knights wielded guns?
though aesthetic-wise 17th century knight armor is not my favorite, I think its super cool! the use of the word "bulletproof" came from smiths that would test their harnesses by shooting at individual plate armor
@vitalis exactly! I can't stop thinking about the era itself y'see. The concept itself is cool, paired with the historical events of that time it makes it even cooler.

Oh damn, first time learning about this.

2I think its really interesting because the era is such a brief window in which we see both plate armor and pistols being used. by the mid 17th century, knightly plate armor was rapidly phased out
@vitalis don't you think it would make a great setting for a fantasy story?
