Skallagrim | Medieval Knight vs. Zombies... @Skallagrim | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 hour ago
If you've seen the Blight: Survival trailer it may have sparked some thoughts about knights in plate (or mail) armor fighting undead hordes. Would they be invincible walking tanks or would they risk becoming canned food?
Let's have a nerdy chat about how well a knight might do in such an apocalyptic fantasy scenario, including how they often met their demise on the battlefields of history, despite being encased in steel.
Videos I reference here:
“Can You Move in Armour?” by Medievalists
