"Most accurate," would be more apt as a title rather "most realistic," since all of Centurion's armour is realistic. This is more of a matter of accurately emulating what a Centurion would actually look like.
Actually Spartans soldiers didn’t care about fashion but only glory they fought naked half of the time…..it’s the Athenians who where the ones that cared about the drip…..the centurion on for honor is more of a athenian even though the Dev said he’s a spartan they just be adding stuff now these days
As someone who has a hobby in armour design theory mostly in the Halo games, especially in doing my best to accurately emulate past armour sets from previous games in Halo Reach, this video perfectly encapsulates the problems I have myself. Knowing what it's like to have to make concessions myself, the choice in arm armour is more than adequate. The final result looks stellar. It also would have been interesting if you could go into which cape would have been most accurate regardless of their fixed nature. Reenactors I've seen seem to wear capes, so it would have been interesting to comment on that.
Cool hobby man. Regarding the cape no roman sources and archeological finds mention romans wearing capes. If you've seen reenactors using them they were doing a mistake or allowed for some inaccuracies in their group or fallen victim to the image of the "hollywood roman". However romans did use body cover in form of a paenula or sagum, but they never wore it to battle.
@@ContuberniumSPQR I forgot to clarify that in colder weather, the reenactors I've seen would wear something that looks like a mantle or a rolled up blanket over one shoulder when they weren't performing. I know they wouldn't wear them during battle, but in some contexts like suddenly being drafted, I was wondering which of the capes would fit.
I'm glade RU-vid recommended this video, I used to watch 2 other for honor RU-vidrs for history evaluations but one hasn't posted in months, and I'm kinda burnt on the other. Thanks RU-vid for feeding my nechie fixes.
very cool vid! If you ever do another video like this one could you take into consideration what kind of materials and colors would be commonly used? Like thinking about what dies and metals would be available for the hero in history. Keep up the good work, cheers!
I'll give the cast some slack with the rust and dirt seeing how this game is set in a apocalyptic era where Lands are destroyed by massive Earthquakes and causing distant lands to merge with one another, causing chaos, destroying kingdoms etc. Hard to find proper cleaning equipment when you're in a apocalypse
This is a cutely edited and nice video. Of course I know a lot of people who love authentic looks, so I can recommend this. I like over-the-top designs and remember in the lore at least, lots of years pass so there's no exact era, creating the "For Honor" look that's kinda dying out though. I also learned a little great deal of Roman culture in this video. All is welcome. I love those cavalry helms, so I'll just say I fell off my horse and now am front lining, like any good irresponsible soldier would do before being penalized.
