Palace Guard Cuirass and Tassets

You are a Paladin now, serve right and justice one last time.

The Palace Guard Cuirass and tassets from Epic Armoury is made from lightweight polyurethane and offers comfort and performance on the battlefield. This armor covers the knight's chest, back and hips from damage and fits well with a range of medieval fantasy characters. The parts are easily fastened and adjusted using the strong leather straps found on the armour. Polyurethane armor is ideal when wearing over extended periods and can be worn in any weather. Great for cosplay or Larp battles, this body armor will help improve your valour in combat.

Looking like a noble is all about the flair. You can own an entire city, but without the proper attire no one would be the wiser.

You mark your status with the finest cape in town. It is soft to the touch with a fine embroidered trim that took your personal seamstress weeks to create. The Aramis Cape sits so perfectly upon your perfectly tailored shirts, you may very well order two or three more...because you obviously can’t be seen wearing the same color two days in a row.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Red Cape Aramis is a hip-length caplet with a high collar and decorative cord fastening. The design is meant to offer a top layer of glamour that can be worn over one or both shoulders. Made from red cotton and cut to include extra billowing fabric, this cape is embellished with a detailed gold and black trim. Its fine appearance makes for a great accessory for a variety of Renaissance or fantasy costumes, especially nobility or musketeers.

The Cape Aramis is an elegant cut with three slits for the arms to slide through depending on how it is worn. Secure the cape around the neck or across the chest by tying the long satin cord.

HISTORY

• This style of cape was particularly popular during the Elisabethan period in Europe
• Considered to be a form of fencing cape, freeing the hand to use a rapier

Your small lap dog yaps at the soldiers in their camps. You keep the creature in your arms, nestled against your Aramis Doublet, lest it be trampled by inconsiderate feet.

You search amongst the camps, your entourage at your heels. You must find the general and speak your mind. As the lord of this land you have been the one who has paid for the soldier’s food and given them this space for their tents. Your flower garden, however, is now in shambles. Surely something can be done about that.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Grey Doublet Aramis is a snug-fitting long-sleeved jacket designed to give shape to the male body. This doublet covers the torso to the hips and can be worn beneath armour or cloak thanks to the embroidered eyelets along the chest and upper back. The doublet is donned like a jacket and closed on the front with a system of cords, allowing the wearer to customize the tightness of the fit. The sleeves are easily detachable by untying the cords beneath the decorative shoulder tabs, each cord secured through long-lasting brass eyelets.

Thick enough to provide some warmth, this sturdy doublet is constructed with layers of wool and satin. All these layers are stitched together in slimming lines, keeping the doublet form-fitting and mimicking a rich Tudor style.

HISTORY

• Doublets were originally used as padding beneath armour
• Doublets became a fashion choice, creating an appealing shape to the male body while holding up the hose using ties
• Used to provide warmth to the core

The Kriarian midday sun is beating down on the spectators, as they are watching the great tournament. Percyval is getting ready for the preliminary rounds of sword fencing; his squire is helping him put on the last piece of armour. He places his hand on the handle of his Highborn Sword, and a silent prayer runs through his mind, as he pulls himself up and walks into the arena.

“Look at him parading like he has a silver spoon up his arse!”, an old jestering crone with absolutely no teeth in her mouth shouts from the stands. Percyval pays no attention to the mockery but focuses on his contender, who is calmly waiting for him. A lot is at stake for him today...

Epic Armoury proudly presents yet another addition to the Stronghold line: Grasp the handle of our Stronghold Highborn Sword and surrender yourself to the ambience of nobility, chivalry and lavishness!

This sword has a 65cm fullered blade designed to be lightweight, while maintaining its structural stability. Made from EVA foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong and impressive paintwork, this sword is just as soft as any latex coated weapon but even more sturdy in battle!

 The longer version exhibits a 20 cm long, highly detailed spacer made from polyurethane foam, that is sculpted and hand painted to look like filigree decorated dark steel embellished with subtle light steel details. The coloured crossguard is adorned with a loop-guard inspired by ivy and fleur-de-lis symbols, and the handle is cast and painted to appear like wood. An intricate scent stopper pommel at the end of the handle crowns this magnificent sword as a sovereign amongst our Stronghold Swords.

 Due to the density of the blade, there is a chance of paint being rubbed off due to the friction caused when the blade and another dry surface makes contact. To mitigate this, we advise maintenance be performed with Epic Armoury Protection Gel rather than regular silicone maintenance sprays.

The Stronghold Highborn Sword is high quality gear due to its impressive durability and magnificent details. This sword will make you confident in the safety and appeal of your LARP weapon on the battlefield, whether you are a noble king or a glorious captain of the guard.

Very few things offer greater protective qualities than steel, when it comes to historical armour. But with steel also comes disadvantages like weight, inflexibility and the need for constant maintenance to protect against rust. Nevertheless, in this day and age, unless you are on the re-enactment or SCA battlefield, you simply don’t need the level of protection that steel affords.

You have travelled a long way to get here, and even though this battle does not hold any greater personal cause for you, the payment more than makes up for your lack of conviction.

The massive heat feels like a cyclopean wave shrouding and suffocating every soldier standing on the arid ground outside the city of Etakia. “Stand your ground! Hold the formation!” your captain screams. You notice how the fellow standing close to your left is clenching his spear as one single drop of sweat trickles down your nose and vanishes into the dusty swarm of feet. In a flash of a second the enemy will slam against the front shields, and you and your fellow soldiers will do as you have been trained to. Moving forward slowly as one entity, as a living machine. Sweating and panting. Pushing. Bashing. Killing.

Rumours are heard whispered in the hallways of the castle and the straits of the Citadel about a usurper. The crafty lady-in-waiting, that you slept with last night, seemed more exhilarated gossiping about how unknown forces within the court are plotting against the old king and his only son. “Who would possibly want that sad excuse of an heir anywhere near the throne, once the old man is dead”, she had tattled with unabashed excitement.

Gossip is not a part of your duties though. Your paramount task is protecting the life of your king at all times; always alert and armed. You would gladly give your life for this man who has been appointed to rule by the Gods. Just as you put on your helmet you hear loud, agitated voices outside in the courtyard...
