I knew what mail and leather and plate looked like beforehand, but with LL I needed to deal with all these weirdo ones from AD&D.Mirandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10745062840676790649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831219200072513986.post-40444062980605672082012-04-25T12:51:29.567-04:002012-04-25T12:51:29.567-04:00I know, I was baiting you.
