Greeks in 300 wear virtually no armor, helmets and shields excluded.

Also, I want the goddamn sword sheaths back. It's ridiculous they've been magically absent since AC1. And then magically Putnam has one by his side, and Mills pulls the sword out of one, as if to spit in people's faces.

You don't leave a vital, stabby piece of equipment hanging around, rain or shine, exposed to effects of wear and tear. Not unless you want to fight with a broken blade.
