Normally i woudln't edit a message to place a note as follows but on reflection it occurred to me that my comment could be taken wrong hence this once in a lifetime disclaimer:
Btw Shar I have no problem with your post; it is fine and the comment is unrelated to your post itself so please don't take it that way.
No problem but either way my name is not Shar. Just a random DnD related screenname i chose. I also had Shar herself as an avatar before i switched to the current one. Though you had me curious and i did a brief googling and there's actually people with Shar as a name.
Let me say once more that i prefer the new cover art more, the armor looks interesting, subtly feminine and generally on the spot.
Bikini armors aside, i can't understand why people have an issue with boob plates. Its not the medieval period. There were very few women to fight or wear armor back then. It was a man's thing.
To me it just sounds like you walk in a store that sells only women clothes and you have to pick something to wear. There was no necessity to fashion armor considering women.
If the society has developed in a way that does not resemble the middle ages and women are actually equal (and i don't think women were considered equal in middle ages) and women in military positions were a lot more commonplace then why there shouldn't be armors fashioned in a more female friendly way?
