Red gambeson, blue gambeson, regular gambeson it's all the same!

After taking a mission to get gambesons I scavanged through towns to find what I could, but I didn't think colors mattered so I picked whatever gambeson I could find. But apparently he needed the regular gambesons. So frustrated with this picky guy.

True, "red" or "blue" are not modifiers like "ragged", "thick" et cetera. Note that you can find "ragged red gambeson" and stuff too.

But the point is, they (red gambeson, blue gambeson and gambeson) have a different ID's and thus are different items.

So you need to get that many red or blue gambersons.

Hugglez!

Actually, Jerky, if it just asked for Gambesons, he needs to gather just the regular white Gambesons...  If it asked for red Gambesons, then just the red, and likewise for blue...

Just like with the whole "sword" vs "[arming, broad, great, etc] sword" confusion...

Ö
I didn't remember there was a "Gamberson"

Its quite a snazzy looking piece of armor.

I always thought it was a jumper. Maybe the regular one should be renamed to "white gambeson" to avoid people getting confused.

I'm playing vanilla 0,751 and I got quest to bring six swords. There's no "sword" in M&B, or atleast I haven't seen any. I got more than six broadswords, but those weren't accepted. So what's a sword? It's not a broadsword, but is it a nordic sword, great sword or what? Other items I have managed to identify, but I'd rather not spend time and money to get six of every type of swords to see which one is "a sword"

THere is a plain old "sword" item in M&B which was in older versions called a longsword. That name was changed due to historical inaccuracy, but the plain "sword" name can definitely be confusing for the "bring me" quests.

Just keep looking, there are such weapons by that exact name, they're just a bit more rare than most other swords. For reference, they look somewhat similar to an arming sword, but without the curved guard.
