You like EB? Buy CA games.
What is the obsession with Lorica Segmenta anyway? I'd rather have chain mail than that stuff.

Padded mail. LS was good against blunt trauma.

My bet's on the LS. Smooth overlapping iron plates aren't exactly the easiest thing to get a blade or tip through (compare to the certain inherent issues mail has with the pointy stuff), and ought to diffuse blunt trauma pretty well - the same general principle scale and lamellar works by, just with bigger single pieces.
"Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

So why is padded mail btter then?
