I noticed, poking through the item graphics file, that there are graphics for leather and metal greaves. Is there a new item type called "Greaves" or, if the graphics were to be used, is it implied that they would be an alternative to Pants?

If only the graphics are supplied, you can decide which equipment slot they go with, although there is no new "greaves" space. You could make them pants or boots, or even a helm if you were so inclined.

My only thought is that they would probably go in the Pants slot (if you were so inclined) but I wasn't sure as greaves are worn on top of pants/padding.

Greaves are pieces of armor worn on the lower legs, if I recall correctly. And if you can have greaves, why can't you have pauldrons? *sulks*

I looked up greaves in the dictionary and it gave a totally unrelated definition (something to do with animal fat) but the definition for greave is leg armor worn below the knee, and the word isusually used in the plural.

I don't know about animal fat, but there were greaves in the game Heroes of Might and Magic 3. They were made of dragonbone.

Interestingly, in Heroes III, the Dragonbone Greaves are worn in the stead of boots or shoes (as there is no pants slot in HoMM3).
