Unequipable Armor?

[Cohen]

I agree with Caine ... especially because the heavies armours were forged for knights ... not footmen.

They can equip armour, so I'm not sure what you are talking about?

As stated in my original post - unable to equip the Stymphalian Wings, also Monolith / Aseftik's. To give a little more information - this is on the Allfather, and Vanheim's other Van leaders. I can, as stated, sort of understand the Wings - better if it was equipable but didn't give flight, but understandable.

But being unable to equip the heavy artifact armors. As I stated in the original post - non-mounted commanders can equip them. But not the mounted leaders.

that's strange, and I've never noticed not being able to equip something I have the slot for. However, I can help you out by providing a nice purchase price for the monolith...



(if this is for Crowded_Lands)

Perhaps because the encumbrance would be ignored by mounted commanders.

This must have been changed with the recent patch because I know I have equipped the monolith armor on knights before.

Heh. But that's kind of the point of mounted commanders - they can wear heavy armor and still effectively do battle.

Spell casting on the other paw gets kinda hard - which means you aren't going to have your commanders doing 5 buff spells while wearing Monolith without taking a nap.

Seems like a bug maybe?
