While I'm kinda surprised that "noble knights" wouldn't fight with a big fancy expensive sword (or at least a mace or battleaxe), instead opting for a "lowly" polearm-type, they still look sexy :2thumbsup:
So the flower of French Chivalry can't aford a backplate?
Pah! What cowardly fool would need heavy armour upon their back? Scoundrels! Scoundrels I say!
That will come with armor upgrades and such, as already seen in the demo and other previews.Quote:

Some units like knights that already have armour by default just get better ones, more different. It's great stuff.
I wasn't aware that polearms were considered ignoble weapons. Do you have any evidence to support this attitude?Quote:
