Without mentioning its discomfort, it was a less useful armor than chain. Its plates were frequently cracked apart or cut away entirely after facing troops with 􀂓common􀂔 weapons. May the gods help the wearers if they had to face 􀂓bearded􀂔 or 􀂓noble􀂔 weapons the next day. (􀂓Common􀂔 weapons were of iron;  \n􀂓bearded􀂔 weapons each had a steel edge welded to the cutting surface, making it extremely deadly; 􀂓noble􀂔 weapons were made with good steel and excellent craftsmanship.)  \nThe chain-mailed warrior, while possibly bruised and sore, could look forward to the next day􀂒s battle confidently, at least in regards to his armor.
