RE: Armour
(4 March 2013, 16:37)NorthernRaider Wrote: The Japanese warrior caste made excellent laminar armour from bamboo, leather and silk layers that would greater reduce trauma from bladed weapons but not bullets.

They eventually invented a version that was bullet proof (for the time). Date Masamune (from present day Sendai in the north) kitted out all his warriors (both samurai and ashigaru peasant soldiers) for the Korean Campaigns in the 1590's.

Your point about layers has given me a little more clarification on the idea of putting the armour together...thank you, Sensei NR.
