<div class="moz-cite-prefix">You keep layering armor and you are
going to look like the Michelin Man. I don't think I would give a
plate and chain combination more than 1 extra point of armor. I
would also be watching fatigue penalties very closely.<br>
<br>
Actually, since I hate keeping track of that kind of stuff, I just
would not allow it.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi, All,
<div style=""> Cheapskate that I am (and given pay cuts and
how much more my kids eat every passing year....), I still
haven't bought RQ6 yet -- though I want to. In the meantime,
my beat up old RQ3 books still soldier on. Hopefully the
books'll survive one more summer of gaming with my kids. :-)</div>
<div style=""> Wait! There's a point to this email.</div>
<div style=""> The RQ3 rule that allows flexible armor under
rigid armor. It makes obvious sense for cases of cloth or
leather under plate. But was it intended to include chain
mail under plate mail?</div>
<div style=""> If so, then that's a lot of armor points. So,
I wanted to ask if the game designers originally intended rich
characters to have 15 armor points (in addition to any magical
protection).</div>
<div style=""> Also, I am very interested in the opinions of
people who have fought in armor. What do you think makes the
most sense?</div>
<div style=""> Wisdom and experience and guidance are warmly
welcome.</div>
