For the clumsy Real Runners^TM out there.
Okay, so I'm actually planning on doing a Crusader myself next year and I can go into some of what I plan on using. Also keep in mind that while I have done armor before, I am by no means an expert on it, I just know what my preferences are and how I plan on tackling some of the hurdles.
So lets tackle the elephant first, The Armor:
"Armored by faith, driven by duty, bound to kill the enemies of the Zakarum."
Okay, onto a bit easier subject, The Cloth and Leather:
"My faith is rewarded."
My plan for my eternal Phalanx, and this can be debated, The Shield:
"The crusade marches on!"
Last but not least, everyone favorite, The Weapon:
"Do not hesitate to strike down your enemies. Death is their salvation from evil."
That's really all I got. Only other thing I could suggest is to take your time and start early. Some of my friends, and even me sometimes, don't start early and will run around the week before/week of freaking out because we're not done, so don't be like us. Be smart. Oh, speaking of being smart, make sure you use PPE. If you don't know if you need it ask about it. You don't want to be working with something like resin without a mask and get breathing issues in 15 years because you didn't protect yourself. And what ever you do, don't forget:
"Kneel before Zakarum!"
