Royal Guard Uniform

The “Royal Guard” squad has been promoted to all steel and silk armor. Naturally, this makes them a bit slow at moving around. Here’s the uniform:

  • (19u) steel mail shirts
  • (16u) steel breastplates
  • (3u) 3x silk cloaks
  • (7u) steel helms
  • (<1u) 3x silk hoods
  • (1u) silk trousers
  • (22u) steel greaves
  • (<1u) silk gloves
  • (2u) steel gauntlets
  • (6u) steel high boots
  • (<1u) wood shields
  • (3u) steel crossbows

Plus the extras that they carry:

  • (6u) quiver with 25-50 bolts, each bolt is 1u
  • (8u) flask

That gives a Royal Guard uniform weight of 121u to 146u.

Militia Uniform

Compare that to the new militia uniform:

  • (2u-8u) 2x cloaks (leather 1u, cloth 4u)
  • (7u) metal helms
  • (<1u) 2x hoods
  • (1u) trousers
  • (1u) leather armor
  • (1u) leather leggings
  • (<1u) gloves
  • (2u) metal gauntlets
  • (6u) metal high boots
  • (<1u) wood shields
  • (3u) copper crossbows

Which is only a Militia uniform weight of 64u, up to 93u. If I prevent them from carrying flasks, I save up to 8u of weight. Limiting them to leather or silk cloaks would save another 6u of weight.
