Rikomer Bracers

The "Rikomer" plate armor is the brother of our "Dragomir" armor. Elaborately manufactured, it consists of a large number of lames and elements that, when combined, result in an extraordinary armor that can hardly be more agile. Every part from Rikomer is carefully flanged and coordinated with one another. Unlike "Dragomir", this armor is not decorated with beads and thus has an uncompromising, brutal look that contrasts with the finely shaped parts. Rikomer impresses with its design and the masterful execution that makes this armor so unique. It is also a more affordable than its brother "Dragomir".

Armor like this is usually only available as a custom-made product and we had to fiddle a long time before we could get it ready for serial production. Of course, the fit must and can be optimized here and there by careful bending, but we have designed the armor in such a way that it can be carried into the field with maximum comfort. The individual parts are burnished to protect them from rust, making the Rikomer burnished particularly suitable for dark knights and fighters of chaos.

We generally recommend wearing a gambeson and arm and leg paddings under plate armor. This significantly improves wearing comfort and protection.

You look upon your leading officer as he makes his way down the line of your fellow soldiers. Your fate and the fate of your entire unit is dependent on this veteran’s word, and you find yourself relieved not to shoulder such a heavy burden.

“We must fight!” your officer shouts for all to hear. You adjust your Warrior Arm Protection, double checking the buckles as you listen to him continue. “For our homes and for our families, we will fight until we can fight no more!” With a resounding cheer, your fellow soldiers ready themselves for the charge. You withdraw your weapon, eager and afraid all at once.

The battle has begun.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Warrior Arm Protection is a set of metal vambraces designed to protect the forearms from harm. Rounded at the edges and decorated with shiny steel rivets, these vambraces are designed to sit comfortably over the forearm, reaching from the elbow and narrowing at the wrists. Secure this armour with a top-grain leather strap below the elbow and another above the wrist.

The Warrior Arm Protection vambraces are neutral in style and fully usable with other Epic Armoury metal products, giving you the freedom to customize your character’s costume. Made of 1 mm thick mild steel and top-grain leather straps and fittings, this armour piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

HISTORY

• Unlike popular belief, arm protection was only called a “bracer” if it was meant to protect the forearm of an archer. Actual forearm protection like this would have been called a “vambrace” or “forearm guard”
• Plate armour became more popular as firearm technology became more prevalent during the 13th century

Shredder would have bought them from us if it wasn't for those damn Turtles!

You keep imagining how those bracers are befitting a warrior, intimidating and skilled. If you wore them, maybe you would become just a little more like a hero.

Unfortunately, you can’t afford such master crafting. The asking price is more than you could make in a year! But you simply can’t stop thinking about them...maybe that craftsman would be interested in an incredibly enthusiastic apprentice?

DETAILS

Mytholon's Vigor armour was designed for the more imposing characters on the battlefield – referring not only to their formidable fighting style. This armour sets generous dimensions make it comfortable for longer periods of time even for powerfully built warriors of any gender. 

The style is reminiscent of the massive armour suits familiar from certain well-known manufacturers of war based tabletop miniatures games that require hammers. The oversized bevor in particular lends the armour suit its exceptional look. "Vigor" is slightly burnished, giving the armour pieces a worn but well cared for appearance. The burnishing procedure may cause small spots similar to rain spatters. As the finish is applied individually for hand it is unique for every single set.

If you’d prefer your armour unburnished, and looking like a shiny warrior of light that constantly praises something, you can also easily remove the burnishing layer using a polishing cloth.

The vambraces are rather slender in comparison to the rest of the armour parts. For that reason, they will not hinder you when carrying a shield. They consist of three slightly curved segments and feature a comfortable cutout for your hand as well as slightly bent edges around the wrist, which significantly increase wearing comfort.

It goes without saying that all edges of these armour pieces are beaded.

The parts of this armour set are manufactured by hand. For this reason, we ask you to allow for slight deviations in measurements and weight.

Adjustments to several of the measurements are possible by carefully bending the respective armour parts.

Vambraces Measurements:

• Length: 34cm
• Circumference (upper strap): 24cm
• Circumference (lower strap): 13cm
• Weight (pair): approx. 1.5kg
