When function trumps flash and protection is the only decoration necessary.

This streamlined variant strips away ceremonial plumes to deliver pure battlefield utility through that same enclosed helm design. Those narrow eye slots provide just enough visibility while maximizing facial protection—this is armor for soldiers who prioritize survival over being spotted in formation. The clean crown means no feather to grab during grappling, no decoration to snag on branches during forest campaigns, nothing but smooth metal between the wearer and incoming strikes. That simple elegance speaks to professional warriors who understand that staying alive matters more than looking distinguished.

The unadorned metal surfaces offer excellent painting opportunities for legion diversity—polished steel for elite guard units, weathered iron for campaign veterans, bronzed finishes for southern legions. Battle damage tells authentic combat stories without decorative elements competing for attention. Those eye slots want dark shadowing for that faceless soldier effect. Consider heraldic symbols painted on the sides or front to maintain unit identification without compromising the low-profile design.

Perfect for rank-and-file legion troops, infiltration specialists who can’t afford visibility, or proving that sometimes the best armor is the kind enemies don’t see coming. Works brilliantly for building entire formations where unified simplicity creates maximum visual impact.

Because not everyone needs to be the tallest target on the battlefield.
