You have my kudos. (now Im just following Nineteen around on all the threads)

But you are totally right. In medieval/middle ages, light armor was basically the #1 thing everyone was trying to do. Protection is good, but if you cant move its useless. Thats why the full steel plate armor was a worldwide breakthrough, a perfect 100% for protection AND mobility.

Lighter armor allowed you protection, as well as a lot more mobility, like you mentioned, and yes, I think a faster swing speed would make sense! (perhaps there could be a "heavyness" mechanic on weapons? Because you would be a lot less mobile with a mace or battleaxe than a sword...
