Agree on all points *NM* Nargs Send a noteboard - 15/02/2012 07:06:09 PM
That increased survivability is increased survivability. Your argument, taken to the extreme would result in everyone in a battle to just say "whatever" and stab themselves because nothing could protect them from every potential death so they might as well just get it over with.

Sorry, most people's attitudes don't work that way, and I suspect neither do yours. In a conflict situation I am going to take every resonable advantage I can lay my hands on "..to make the other dumb son of a bitch die for his." as Patton supposedly said. C armor is just one more (relatively) simple way to help make that happen.

I hope some sort of C armor makes an appearance in the final story even if it is just Egwene changing Gawyn's shield on the eve of battle with the customary "Oh, I should have thought of this earlier." that we have seen other times.

Functional Cuendillar Armor: Possible or impossible? - 10/02/2012 04:45:34 PM 1478 Views
You posted this exact same question one year ago, with a lot of discussion - 10/02/2012 06:29:28 PM 942 Views
You busted him! I wonder why he would post it again... *NM* - 10/02/2012 07:25:47 PM 497 Views

No, you go back and re-read what everyone said. - 11/02/2012 11:02:47 PM 942 Views
We're actually losing them by the troves. My apologies. *NM* - 12/02/2012 02:52:01 AM 455 Views
I rest my case. - 10/05/2012 04:34:02 PM 834 Views

Agreed. - 11/02/2012 06:24:36 PM 825 Views
why not some plate armor. duh. *NM* - 12/02/2012 09:54:43 PM 493 Views
See? - 10/05/2012 04:35:25 PM 808 Views
Possible, but hard. - 11/02/2012 01:56:03 AM 950 Views
scale or plate armor would be quite easy *NM* - 11/02/2012 01:38:47 PM 422 Views
My thought was always about weapons. - 11/02/2012 06:31:45 AM 1003 Views

Should be perfectly feasible - 11/02/2012 12:28:47 PM 841 Views
Exactly - 11/02/2012 01:53:24 PM 879 Views
Certainly possible, but given the effort most women have to put toward changing even a small item - 12/02/2012 05:10:35 AM 927 Views
Ummm, Warders... - 14/02/2012 01:39:23 PM 771 Views
How would Cuendillar armour help against channelers? - 14/02/2012 07:58:58 PM 846 Views
It can not be directly effected by the OP - 14/02/2012 09:08:57 PM 734 Views
some simple ideas for defeating warders armoured such. - 14/02/2012 09:52:41 PM 870 Views

which way is it? - 15/02/2012 04:14:41 AM 736 Views
Actually I'd call the Seanchan tactically inferior to the White Tower in using the power - 15/02/2012 01:48:55 PM 849 Views
That's really not my point. - 15/02/2012 03:21:15 PM 731 Views
My point is - 15/02/2012 03:52:43 PM 716 Views

I never said that they could not be stopped - 15/02/2012 01:58:41 PM 835 Views
I really think you're over-estimating how difficult it would be. - 15/02/2012 03:22:44 PM 780 Views
Not nesecarrily - 15/02/2012 04:01:45 PM 783 Views
You just said that most of their tactics are indirect. - 15/02/2012 05:44:22 PM 891 Views
..and you are creating new tactics - 15/02/2012 06:32:02 PM 723 Views
*shrug* I don't see it as some world-shaking action - 15/02/2012 08:47:40 PM 743 Views
Not accurate - 15/02/2012 03:54:00 PM 845 Views
You are thinking too far inside the box - 15/02/2012 04:23:28 PM 818 Views
I disagree - 15/02/2012 04:43:33 PM 778 Views
If armor is of no benefit... - 15/02/2012 06:19:30 PM 686 Views
Missing my point ... Cuendillar armor is impractical not useless - 15/02/2012 07:00:48 PM 792 Views
nope - 15/02/2012 07:21:03 PM 707 Views

I'll happily amend my initial statement to "maybe even challeling ones" - 15/02/2012 07:03:48 PM 739 Views
Fair enough. - 16/02/2012 02:08:19 AM 737 Views
what a lot of people are forgetting with their suggestions of plate armor... - 13/02/2012 02:36:50 PM 909 Views
Your understanding of how plate armor functions is in error - 14/02/2012 01:45:37 PM 724 Views
I believe AND I was hoping you would go into the physics of it :p - 14/02/2012 11:01:18 PM 710 Views
here ya go, I still skipped almost all of the math though. - 15/02/2012 03:00:09 PM 778 Views
Two things: *NM* - 16/02/2012 04:03:52 PM 460 Views
