Arrows vs Armour 3	Can't Post

Todd & friends shoot arrows at armour. This time, the armour and arrows are from a bit later in medieval history, so the results differ a bit. SPOILER: armour is still a really good idea when you're getting shot.

Matt offers his own reactions and opinions, focusing on the poor soldiers getting shot at.
