armor is wearable equipment that serves to absorb damage done in attacks. each armor protects the user from certain amounts of hitpoints and from certain injuries.. armor types can be sorted under several subdivisions:

Location worn:

head
torso
arms
legs

durability: (how difficult it is to damage the armor)

weak
normal
strong
extra strong
Impenetrable

damage protected against:

fire
projectile

light bullet
heavy bullet
armor piercing
shot gun

energy
electricity
vacuum
heat
cold
laser
bludgeon
shrapnel
stab/cuts

protection: (hit points absorbed)

low (1 - 5)
medium (6 - 10)
high (11 - 15)
super high (16 - 20)
Limitless (20 - ???)

Weight

light (0 – 20 kg)
heavy (21 – 50 kg)
ponderous (51 - ??? kg)

as an example, lets look at a sample armor data card:

Syncorp Smartboy Flak Vest
Resists:	Light bullet, Shot gun, Light shrapnel
Weight:	5 kg	Damage resist:	5
Worn:	Torso
Durability:	Weak

This particular armor is worn on the torso.

It is a light weight armor.

It will absorb 5 Hitpoints of damage from light bullets, shot gun blasts, and light shrapnel. All other damage types will have full effect of damage.

Its durability is “weak”

Let us talk about durability for a moment. Durability is the abilty of the armor to resist getting damaged and having its resist lowered

Some weapons, particularly in the higher end of the damage charts will do armor damage as well as hp hits and injuries.

For instance, lets look at this armor piercing rifle damage chart:

roll	Hit points	Injuries/armor dmg
1 - 5	-5
6 – 10	-8
11	-10	Bleeding wound Weak armor dmg
12	-15	Bleeding wound Normal armor dmg

On a dmg roll of 11, thie weapon would apply damage to all weak class armor, on a roll of 12 it would apply damage to any normal and weak armor.

Each time an armor is damaged it drops to the next lower level of functionality:

Armor damage level:

perfect.
damaged.
ruined.
destroyed.

Before the armor has ever been damaged, it is in “perfect” condition, and it works exactly as it says on its data card.

Once is gets hit with damage, it drops to “damaged” condition. When “damaged”, its hit point resist is lowered to half its original value AND it does not protect against injuries.

If it received another damage, its condition drops to “ruined”, while “ruined” the armor no longer offers any protection whatsoever. The armor can, however, be repaired later on if the means are avalible.

If the armor is damaged once more, it drops to “destroyed” condition. It can no longer be repaired and for all intents and purposes the armor no longer exists in the game.

simple description of combat turn

it seems to me that my description of taking a combat turn (i.e. shooting) is too complex. for my example i used the most complicated situation possible in order to illustrate all variables. but basically, this is what you do EVERY time you shoot a weapon (i havent designed melee or handto hand attacks yet but i plan on them being almost identical)

ACCURACY ROLL:
roll a D6 + total accuracy score (accu STAT +/- weapon modifiers +/- position modifiers +/- misc modifiers) against the targets total vulnerability score (dodge STAT +/- position modifiers +/- stance modifiers)

IF it is a HIT (attacker total roll equal to or greater than target's) then.....

HIT LOCATION ROLL:
roll a D10 and compare the result to the hit chart for the type of target you are shooting ( non-humanoid monsters have different body layouts than humanoids and there for there might be different body parts possible to hit)

after you determine the body part than was hit, it is time to do the final roll....

DAMAGE ROLL:
simply roll a D12 (add any pertinent modifiers) and compare the result to the damage chart for the weapon used. deduct the full amount of hit points from the target unless the body part hit is wearing armor, in which case the armor absorbs the portion of damage listed on its description card. apply any appliciple wounds from the damage chart to the target body part as well, unless they too are absorbed by the armor.

FAIRLY SIMPLE EH?
