Hey all......I might have asked this in the past, but I've slept since then...so...KOA, as well as a few other places, are selling armor kits and pieces. They offer these armors called Dark Drake, Dark Warrior, Epic Warrior, King, etc. Just judging from the photos, some of this stuff looks pretty neat. I especially like the Dark Drake full kit. The fluting and creasing looks pretty good. I was just wondering if anyone has any of this brand of armor and what they think of it. I would be interested in it for costume purposes only....no combat. I hope. :lol: Thanks in advance...........McM

Some of the armor, as far as I can see, is made by Epic Armoury, a firm in Denmark making and dealing in LARP equipment. I've seen some of it and handled it and it is well made.

I have a link for you here- http://epicarmoury.com/

cheers

Thank you very much, Nic.......I had never heard of this company before........but, then again, I'm not a "LARPer'. Glad to hear from someone who has actually seen and felt it. I just went through their whole PDF catalog, and a lot of that stuff is really cool. I may be just about to take a chance and buy a new Renn-Fest armour kit ! The worst thing that could happen , I guess , is that I buy it......it sucks.....and I have to return it for a refund. :\ Now that I saw their catalog, I notice that Kult of Athena sells quite a bit of their goods. Got no probs here ordering from KOA. Thank you again!............McM

If anyone else out there has ANY experience with this armour, your comments will be most appreciated! Thank you all , in advance.............McM

If you get the darkened armor, it eventually rubs off due to abrasion, especially on gorgets with the overlapping metal.

Thanks a bunch, Sarge. No combat for me......just dress wear. I was just wondering of the general quality. If it's pretty easy to bend to shape, that would be a pretty good thing for me...........since I'm built like a Hobbit. :lol: .....Thanks!!........McM
