Who told you thoose fairy tales?

Spec Ops use body armour, unless the operation demands otherwise or they simply can't be bothered.

Armour in the middle ages was not for show, seriously where are you getting this?

If Armour in the Middle Ages was for show, why did everybody who couldn't afford it loot it from the dead as soon as they could.

Also yes the firearm did make full armour obosolete.

	Hmmm I would recomend reading John Keagan's "The face of Battle" Agincourt section. Also "Inside Delta force" by Eric Haneny The armour was then ransomed back to the owners family. It had their cresst and Heralic arms on it so t wasn't much good to anyone else. :) I know a great deal on the subject . (Reply to this) (Parent)

Armor in the middle ages was both for protection and for a status symbol, true, but it took quite a while for firearms to make heavy metal armor completely obsolete. Look up the meaning of 'armor of proof', for one thing, or consider that at least a cuirass was considered a good idea up through the time of the conquistadors, and even worn by some military officers up through the time of the civil war.
