Heavier armor hinders the combatant. The Armor Table indicates the step penalties to Attributes imposed by armor.
- Body Armor: Despite its expansive name, body armor is simply a vest that covers the torso. Made of Kevlar and ceramic plates, it greatly reduces the damage inflicted by most weapons, but is designed primarily for stopping bullets.
- Combat Helmet: This basic black military-issue Kevlar composite helmet is covered with a cloth to match the wearer’s uniform. Hits to a helmeted head do not add extra damage, except on an Extraordinary Success.
- Combat Suit: Body armor material distributed evenly over the body offers much better protection. The main effects of the suit still apply only to bullets, but the Armor Rating reduces damage from all attacks (the suit includes a combat helmet with face plate). Unfortunately, the helmet impairs hearing and vision, and is a bit bulky.
