Historical References of/Pertaining to Maces/Other Blunt Weaponry of the Mid~Late 15th Century.
Right of the bat, maces and such aren't specifically "anti-armor/armor-counter" if by armor you mean plate as you could see by the game's period
Secondly, here's a multitude of useful links

@wild glacier Hope that's enough
@mint bough thx!
Btw by anti-armor I just meant for using the generic idea that “Blunt=Better used to deal damage to/does better damage to those encased within plate armor, brigandine, or just light plate armor/maille compared to what other bladed weapons would be capable of doing.”
And yes I do recognize that they were typically used to knock ppl out more then to ever try and just cave someone’s skull in through a Sallet or any other helmet.
Obv physics and whatnot
@mint bough
I'm running into a smol problem
I-uh, I don't speak most of the European sources' languages...
Obv there's the translate function for Opera GX, but, it's not always exact...
a lot of these have an english version aswell, look at the top (often right) corner
for instance if you see "DE" it means deutsch, german
click on it and you'll have the EN (english) option
