Dawn Of Chivalry
Suppliers with details of their wares (6 pages, 03-04-2018, pdf, 0.17 MB)
One of the key driving forces at Dawn of Chivalry is to be as historically accurate as possible. We therefore research our equipment (weapons, armour, clothing, jewellery, etc.) to make sure that we only wear and use what would have existed in the 13th century.
Below are the results of some of our research and that of others relevant to our period.
More documents to be added as they become available. Some are password protected as they are only available to the group's members.

Research from Other Groups
