armor padding question

[thatwolfguy]

yeah, it's a trade off, definately - there's really so much to it.  if you wear more armor, you're less agile so you might actually get hit more, but you can take it, but if you don't wear armor, you can actually move quicker, so you might not get hit as much, but if you do get hit it hurts more - and in the summer if you wear armor you are even more encumbered because of the heat compounded with the extra weight so basically you're a speed bump, but you can still take more hits and if you weren't wearing the armor you'd still have the heat to contend with ..... each player has to find their own balance - and yeah, hooray quickness points ;-)

does strenghtening give armor one extra shatter box or two?  it says two in the rules (p306) but someone told me one

Generally speaking the rules are correct in these situations.
