I don't think it Makes sense to talk about "norMal" chainMail. Mail lighter than the "heavy" chainMail I was referring to would be _significantly_ less protective. ...but if it's an RP setting, all bets are off - you're probably wearing the arMor 24 hours a day to boot

It would be significantly less protective against arrows or five people attacking you, yes, but one on one there wouldn't be a huge difference. Well, technically there are rules that say you get a penalty if you sleep in plate armor, but I've never seen it enforced.

It depends about which time-frame we're talking about here. Armor started off simple, but then as time went on armor started getting more and more decorative and also much heavier. I mean, paladins needed cranes to get onto their poor horses, because their armor was that thick and heavy. And then we had the Saracen war when the Franks decided to crusade Egypt which saw a rapid evolution with padded armor and morning-stars. Eventually we had 6ft long two-handed morning-stars vs 5inch thick padded armor. Of course, I'm recalling this from memory so don't quote me on this. |
