A War Hammer - This is a type of weapon that would have been used during the Wars of the Roses. Plate armour was used extensively by knights and dismounted men-at-arms. A war hammer could inflict serious injuries even to those wearing armour. In particular the spikes could be used to pierce the armour and the hammer head would buckle armour breaking the bones of the wearer. |
