Got a Real-World Weapon, Armour or Tactics Question? Mk. XXVIII

[Kiero]

I'm worried about the longevity of bronze in a jungle environment. Especially since a large chunk is coastal, so you have salt. But I'm not too well versed on that metal chemistry, so I'm not sure it's a valid concern.

Bronze is much more durable than iron/steel when it comes to moisture in the environment. It isn't a coincidence that ships rams were cast in bronze, and marines often used bronze, rather than steel weapons because they resisted corrosion much better.
