I'll second the comment on the armour here - I've worn full heavy plate on horseback. It's basically this big human shaped lobster shell :P Not body hugging in the slightest. And it rattles, especially articulated shoulder pieces and kneecups. Knights don't sneak much :) Once of the most annoying things in the world is a stuck buckle on the side of your breastplate. BTW, a tip for those in heavy armour - DON'T FALL OFF THE HORSE. It hurts. Alot. Even with heavy padding underneath and a bicycle helmet under the tilting helm.
