manica armguard attachment help - randeeak47 - 10-22-2010
Hello guys what is the preferred method of attaching a lorica armguard, either to the segemtada or by leather straps around the body pics would be awsome, as I use a roman V legion as my persona , I need some advise on this , mainly the leather strap around the body method !! thanks in advance

You mean a Manica. I'd change the title of your post.

Personally, I've ended up using the four strap method, with a sheepskin lining, though the cross shoulder strap method also works well.
