I'd like to eventually assemble a kit for Cut and Thrust. The Atlantian rules require rigid protection for elbows, knees, and wrists. I'd like to get knee and elbow cops and demigaunts that would be suitable for the first half of the 16th century. I do a lower-class Scottish Borderer of the 1540s. Much armor used in Scotland was apparently produced in Germany, so German styles are appropriate. For a lower-class persona, older armor styles going back to about 1500 would be appropriate.
The pieces would have to be sized for a small, thin woman. Stonekeep has a lot of knees and elbows in various styles in small sizes. Which styles are appropriate for post-1500? Who else carries small-sized armor?
Who carries small demigaunts in appropriate styles? Stonekeep has a limited selection of gauntlets.
If I did hidden armor, it would have to be very low profile, as I don't wear poofy sleeves or poofy pants.
