This 'Attic' type Roman helmet is used as armour in Combat.


Description

Helmets were bowls of iron and/or bronze used to protect the wearer from downward slashes and thrusts. They were generally made of one piece of metal, which could make them weak. Consequently, different types of functional decoration appeared over time to make the helmet look better as well as strengthen vulnerable areas. The metal bowl was padded on the inside by cloth rags, held to the head by leather straps, and frequently carried hinged cheekguards to protect the sides of the face in battle. They also often sported plumes or crests to help identify unit and rank of the soldiers in the growing armies of the period.

In game terms, a helm is an advanced piece of armor protecting the head, face and neck, much more than a basic helmet.

Auxhelm_a is an 'Attic' type Roman helmet. It is made of iron and bronze and features a neckguard and cheekpieces. It is a sturdy but plain helmet used by Roman auxiliary infantry and cavalry.
