Not really.

Here some other early 1300AD royal norwegian guardsmen.

And this is awesome! Here you can see their coat-of-arms.

[ThePlagueRat]

Early medieval or late viking era.

Well armed too! I guess this must be a berserker?

[BeBMan]

Looks kinda funny with this extremely small shield.

But good pics

Let´s hope noone complains abouth them

[ThePlagueRat]

Why should someone complain?

However, it's not a shield really. It is a buckler, a very tactical defensive piece to wield along with a sword or an axe.

Great pictures.. I didn't know that the photographic cameras exist in the Middle Age

Not really.

I mean is more honorable because the enemies can see each other faces. Is not about a guy in battleship that click a button and a missile is send away.

Hm, I guess from that POV is is right

I´m myself somewhat a fan of the medieval period, but my post was more about the ugly things, eg. plundered cities and all that...

[ThePlagueRat]

I'll try to compensate...
