YES! I was hoping someone would look to save me the effort. 8D I'd been wondering about shin guards - legs seemed rather naked. I would assume that that soldiers and guards wear different uniforms, though, so I doubt Costis has to haul around a shield.
Kay, so for the guards we now have: -breast and backplate -cloak (!!! Yay !!!) -kilt -chain skirt overtop -undershirt -leather tunic -shin and shoulder guards -sword -'tis blue and yellow -it doesn't spell it out for us, but the way Costis has to hold his scabbard when he's running so it doesn't whap his legs leads be to believe the sword is attached like it usually is, like this: http://static.hcrhs.k12.nj.us/gems/booknook/sabriel.jpg -although it doesn't mention this either, one would assume they wear helmets. Checkers? 8D
