I require moar data

>Pope Julius II born Giuliano della Rovere
>Nicknamed the Warrior Pope, the Battle Pope or the Fearsome Pope
>Would wear armor and personaly lead his own forces in battle not to the front mind you
He fought some wars agaonst venetians, The french, and made the power of the church higher.
Pick is armor used by one of his cardinals.
He also made Martin Luther have a spergout because he was involved in politics and war

that's hella cool, it would be strange if the Vatican didn't preserve his armor, the pope's I mean

>>17938537
, Julius' armor didn't survive, despite making such a buzz in its time, what pictures you might see on google are all modern illustrations. Luther visiting Rome and seeing the Pope dressed in full armor like this was the defining moment in his journey of opposing the papacy.

Most priests in 40k don't go to war.

>>17938554
aren't at least descriptions of how his armor/weapons used to look?
>>17938470 (OP)
this dude couldn't have gone more WH even if he tried, that's cool though, WH is badass

>>17938554
Luther had sour grapes.

someone should make an edit of pic related with Luther and Pope Julius II.

Note the armor Luther saw Julius riding in was made of solid gold

>>17938812
if you have the source for the armor description greentext it pl0xe and link it
>made of solid gold
that would be pretty retarded, I think, if that were so a sword would easily cut through it, but understandable for ceremonial purposes, all in all, a bit of a mindfuck

>>17938812
source?

>>17938821
>a sword would easily cut through it
google is telling me I'm wrong, but I kinda don't believe it

>>17938821
It was steel painted with gold.

>>17938833
Nah gold is NOT a Good armor. Don’t listen to jewgle anymore it’ll save you some massive headaches.

I found this two things,
book should be one recounting seeing the armor in 1800, the pic should be maybe an illustration of how it looked like

>>17938812
Martin Luther and Julius II. never met.

>>17938522
well, it was in the spirit of those times. in the battle of Mohács in 1526, five bishops and both archbishops of Hungary died with sword in hand, fighting against the ottoman invasion. they saw themselves as noblemen first, clerics second, thus obligated to go to war if the king says so.

Primarch Julius II...

I hate Ottomans so much it's unreal
