Non Combatant Armour Skills​

​

In this hectic and sudden world of The Mixed Medieval Arts, it is important for all to keep themselves armed and ready at all times.  This includes our Merchants, or those whose Guilds come from the Non Combatants Guild Tree.​

​

Non Combatants and Shield Skills

(Small, Large, Tower)​

These Skills all work the same as the Combatants rules state they do.  For more information on what the skills do, see below or on the Weapons and Armour Construction page.​

​

Non Combatants and Armour

(Light, Medium, Heavy)​

Armour for Non-Combatants does not add Armour Points (extra Hit Points) or extra Wound Points onto the wearer, rather it will allow for a certain number of times during a single conflict encounter that the wearer may negate a "Non Com you are dead!" mechanic with a cry of "Deflect!".

A single conflict encounter begins with the Attacker first declaration of "Non-Com you're dead!" and ends with the completion of a 30 seconds uninterrupted rest period.  During this rest the Non-Com may do nothing else but stay still in one place, gather their breath and senses about them and try to get over the shock of their threatening encounter.

​

Light Armour ( Lit ) 

- Level 1 -

Character may use Light Armour for 1 use of "Deflect" per encounter.

Light Armour may not be used against a threat from a 1 handed Mass or any 2 handed Weapon, only against 1 handed bladed weapons.

- Level 2 -

Character can also now "Deflect" any weapon of any size..

- Level 3 -  

Three times daily, character may also announce "Deflect" and cancel any damage/effect dealt to the Light Armour from any thrown Magic source or Flintlock, just as if the Light Armour was acting as a Large Shield.

​

Medium Armour ( Med ) 

- Level 1 -

Character may use Medium Armour for 2 uses of "Deflect" per encounter.

- Level 3 -

The Character can also now handle much thicker more rigid armour and therefore receives an extra Deflect use, for a total of 3.

​

Heavy Armour ( Hvy )
