Description
"In my opinion, sir, any officer who goes into battle without his sword is improperly dressed." -Jack Churchill, British Commandos, World War Two.

I still need to design space armor for Brother Battle because spacesuits and medieval armor are cool. No other reason needed. I went with the Saracen/Arabic armor of the Crusades because it was practical and lightweight for the harsh deserts of the Middle East. These were guys that knew what they were doing, as opposed to the European Crusaders who basically wore armor that served as a personal oven. For the game lore, Brother Battle's headquarters is on the remote desert world of De Moley, which is described as being similar to Mars. That means cold, dry, and windy. The Garrison suit protects the knight from the elements as much as from enemy fire. The ceramic splint plate has thin ablative coating to resist the winds and sands, and individual plates can be easily replaced as time goes on. The softer parts of the armor are made from synthetic mesh that can still provide an airtight, pressurized seal without sacrificing mobility. While the single-shot rifle serves as the knight's primary weapon, the sword serves not only as a close-range weapon, but machete, striking-flint for fire, measuring meter-stick, and depending on the decoration, ranking insignia for officers. More extreme environmental suits are based off this main design, but every knight needs to learn how to get around and fight in the basic Garrison suit.

I'm thinking of designing medieval/futuristic weapons for these guys. Any objections?
