Plane Sailing said:Not actually true. I've seen people wearing actual full suits of platemail and they could run, jump and even kip up in their full plate. The idea of it making movement difficult or restricted is a false one; intuitively it seems likely but in practice it isn't.
(This was at the Royal Armouries museum in Leeds, UK by the way)
Isn't plate actually lighter than a coat of mail?
