Gah! You got me all excited when I got that quote as an email update. My academic background is medieval Scandinavia (all the Nordic countries, technically) and I do Viking period historical reconstruction, living history reenactment, and live-steel combat. So I saw this and thought, "Did I miss something? Splinted greaves on boots and and splinted bracers on gauntlets? Lamellar armour and pauldrons? A good-looking spangenhelm?" You got my hopes up. Ah well, Rohan will Soon™ be upon us.

All kidding aside, it does look nice.

A helmet that actually looks quite nice and even a bit feminine. Feel a bit 'Joan of Arc' in it.

This I had to collect; someone sold tne top in the GLFF trade channel and I was so horrified I had to not only buy it, but try and find matching trousers. And eventually I did! Isn't it delightful?

Those are actually the [armour]Leggings of the Axe-handler[/armour], of which there is a version for Captains and Guardians. The [armour]Blademaster's Leggings[/armour] are very similar, but have more extensive gold trim.

They are, but the pattern is also used in the Moria three-piece heavy armor sets, such as the Champ's [item]Armour of the Whirlwind[/item] and [item]Berserker's Armour[/item].

The cloak design is used on many different cloaks, including random vendor-trash. [armour]Ever-shadowed[/armour], [armour]Warden's Wrap[/armour], and [armour]Thaliongol[/armour] are some examples.

The clearest hallmarks from this angle are the relatively plain field with the white trim at the bottom - very few cloaks have a white trim like that, let alone by itself. You can also make out the wing-like emblem of the cloak peeking out between his right arm and right hip. :D

Hah!

Late coming back with this, but I just happened to poke into the thread again.

I'd love a realistic spangenhelm, a realistic mail hauberk (tucked-in mail shirt doesn't quite cut it), and gauntlets that didn't look like dinner plates riveted to gloves. With the Norse bent Tolkien had and worked into the books, I think a Dane-inspired set of armour would fit in pretty well in the game.

It'd also be neat to see thrusting spears.

I take a bit of pride in my cosmetics lol, Well Here's my Hunter, Olirian with a couple of my best outfits.


This one is my Malledhrim inspired outfit..

Tell me what you think please ! :]
Great thread by the way

Not a fan of the second one, sorry! :p ...mostly because I despise the ranger mask with its ridiculously pointy hood.

A new outfit for my champ. Can't wait till the update - I will be buying more outfit slots for sure.

Goes well with the Malledhrim horse I think.

That's nice. The outfit looks exotic, maybe Haradhrim?

Who's excited for 3 more cosmetic tabs coming tomorrow morning?! I know I am!!!

(Maybe a little too excited? Nah!)

I would be more excited if I had the points to afford all 3 purchases D:

Well maybe I'll be able to get 1 or 2. Still, i'm excited :D as well as with the other stuff.

I like the new plainer, travelling style robes. A nice change from fancy ballgowns.

It's spring! Time for new outfits.

Traveller's Hood, Minstrel's Moria Shoulders in umber, a dropped-item Dwarf style vest, leggings which were a drop, but can also be gained from Evendim as Dunkley's Leggings, Westernesse boots.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...lilsummer1.jpg

Dropped vest (had good luck finding it around Annuminas), Elven light armour leggings, Rochwen's boots (unique design, I think, from that one Trollshaws quest).

Not sure if I'm 100% happy with the boots. Was trying to avoid Elven and stick to Man/Westernesse stuff only for a more militaristic look but darnit, the pre-Moria Elf boots just have the best shape!

Oh! I love that helmet! What is it called and where'd you find it? *crosses fingers hoping it isn't a class item*


You know what? I really like the shoulders too. Could you tell us what those are too?

Thanks!

Helmet is the Medium Purple Moria - burglars, wardens and hunters will be able to get it from the barterer. The shoulders are the Minstrel's Moria.

I tried to match outfit to horse.
