I would like to see a TON of new weaponry and armor impimented to the game. They can be generic, such as (IN THE MATERIALS OF BRONZE, IRON, STEEL, DIAMOND, ETC:

Wooden Stick
Dagger
Short Sword
Long Sword
Ax
Two Handed Sword
Katana
War Hammer
Battle Axe
Club
Small Shield
Long Shield
Round Shield
Wooden Shield
Small Helmet
Full Helmet
Chain Mail Body
Chain Mail Legs
Chain Mail Gloves
Chain Mail Helmet
Chain Mail Boots
Plate Body
Plate Legs
Plate Boots
Plate Gloves
Leather Bod
Leather Legs
Leather Gloves
Leather Boots

Just an idea :D The current selection of weaponry and armor is a little, scarce, in my opinion.

Moved to graphic development because the only reason we don't have more equipment in the game is that we don't have the graphics for it. Either the icons and sprites themself are missing or we don't have the playerset animations to use them properly (like heavy weapons).

I'd have to put together an xml for it, but here's a chainmail helm:

here's an example of what the hinting looks like to cast a shadow on the face (only for the south facing face :P )

Looks really heavy and big compared to head's player size. :?

Well... here is a round shield... just golden one. :)
I was thinking about a quest where player has to get 2 pieces of broken shield and a blacksmith can make one from them. I will, of course, create the art for the pieces if devs support this (and make the code)

The sprites aren't anatomically correct with proportion to head and body, so this is to be expected with some of the gear. (such as with the serf helm that's considerably tall and wide compared to the head). Chainmail itself isn't worn flush to the head (hair would get tangled, and a whack by a sword would give someone a concussion without proper padding. Still... since you've convinced me that it does look a bit puffy, i trimmed it down to be semi flush to the head.

I think that looks much better.

Definetly. The shape of the head is recognizable and it is a big improvement. Looks good, yep.

Haay, the shield is amazing. I like also the idea of the quest, and I can script it when your project will be done. Anyway, it should be really difficult ;)

While working on the xml, I'm starting to lean more towards the puffier helm... since there's till the hair layer issue. (which looks cool with mohawks and some helms, but it just looks icky on this)... if only there were a setting that could go in the xml's that would clip hair to the edges of the player sprite (for use with some of the helms), or turn it off while equipped...
wider version addresses some of the style's over clipping, vs the flush version

Don't worry about hair clipping.

Don't worry about it. Infact, we really don't need a new icon. We need to make the existing icons one and just use recolors, like we do with their sprites.
