Interestingly, there are several records of knights
(and others required to wear mediaeval armour) with
extreme exopthalmia. It is mentioned because it
was felt to give them an advantage in battle, since
their eyeballs were closer to the eyeslit, therby
giving them better peripheral vision. |

Why not just wear a medieval jousting helm? It will be a talking point at dinner parties too. |
|
|
It's not easy to dine while wearing a helm; and they rust easily if worn in damp conditions. |
|
|
I wonder is there a first person shooter with that sort of restricted vision? |
|
|
More of a first person jouster, mayhap. |

I'm surprised MB hasn't already pointed this out, but every good knight knows his squire is responsible for keeping his armour in tip-top condition. |

Sad that the modern equivalent of said knight goggles should include rhinestone encrusted sunglasses... |
|
|
Shameful even. Tis the field of valor lime-lit? Methinks not. |

"KITT, this is Michael - I want you to scan that buxom chick and project a wireframe image of her on my goggles..." |
