Ok, thanks. Just wanted to get a basic idea for him before he started building anything so that he could keep his armor points in mind.

Im using a skull cap with a mail coif. Great helms are too pricy.

Reading the rule book it would appear that foam armor would value at 0 points. While I am using pretty much all real armor (see my other thread for what I am using in case people were looking for ideas) My younger brother who wants to use foam in his armor design would like to confirm that and...

My PC character is starting off fighter and I'll be doing some npcing which will set me up with a good amount of goblin points/stamps. I also tend to turtle when it comes to character conversion as i typically build in a manner that sets me up to not suffer a huge stat drop when i change. By the...

Good to know. Thanks Durnic.

Can't wait for the whole costume to come together

That suit weighs about 25lbs I believe so definitely weighty for sure.

So what is the NPC guild?

I got a pretty solid suit of armor coming together then. Sweet.

As a first time NPC what cabin should I sign up in? Monster Camp?

Posted the costuming question in the proper forum so disregard that on this thread.

So how would what I have posted work as far as points go? The gloves are combined with a chain mail suit that will go to about mid thigh lengthwise on the torso and to about my elbows with a gambeson underneath and surcoat over top

Since I am doing chain mail with a coif I will probably do something more like this. Then perhaps gloves like this. Then boots like this.

Does the alliance approve of classic European full helms? A lot of them had the cross in the design of the visor due to many of the nation's being associates with the Catholic Church. Their designs were especially so in the crusades era. Example:

So decent survivable armor is going to get real pricy then...ok. I think I can still make it happen. There any good places to get quality armor for a modest price as far as helms and vambraces go? I don't have a super high budget.

I was thinking in foam for the helmet and vambraces. Saw a guy using rubber cement to attach parts and it turned out pretty good for the helm he made. How do armor points tally?

Hail friends of the alliance. I am working on my first PC costume that is being designed under the theme of an emerald knight so I'll be using green and grey as my colors. My only complete piece of armor is a chain mail hauberk and coif. I think I'm going to do a Boromir style doublet over it...

Thanks for the advice. Got to start constructing my costume. Question on costuming. How would one go about making a leather doublet like Boromir's from Fellowship of the Ring that both looks authentic but is cost effective?

Sounds good, looking forward to hearing your feedback on my submission.
