armor question

Post by rev.jc »

I have a barrel helm with a german type v shaped faceplate, the faceplate extends far beneath my neck, do I still need a gorget, for sca purposes?

Yes. Check with a marshal in your area for details, but the neck needs to be protected by more than the helm's face plate.

And really, do you want to risk it just to save on the effort or expense of a gorget? I don't.
