Armor categories:
- Light armor
- Heavy armor
- Bespoke armor
Medium armor is being removed (see Defense).
Armor notes
- Heavy armor should have some kind of drawback.
- Super heavy armor: −5 speed.
Is "super heavy" a fourth armor category?
The Additional Info notes mention super heavy armor (−5 speed). The Master Document V01 lists only light, heavy and bespoke armor.
Shields
How do shields work?
- Master Document V01 (Weapons and Techniques): +1 DV while using a shield. With the shield technique, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on an attack against someone else.
- Additional Info notes: you have to spend an AP to use the shield and get its bonus to AC (DV). You can use a reaction to shield block.
The Guardian’s Shield Block also uses a reaction.
