Quote:A darker cloak can be a concealment regardless of the color of tunic. The hood covers shiny helmets, too.
I made my paenula hood big enough to fit over my helmet ... I thought I was being pedantic not wanting my helmet to get rusty in the rain ... Guess it would disguise the 'shine' when on patrol... as long as our men ditch our aprons and jingling belts, too.
