Dermal plating is (thankfully) limited to just one per Runner. Even
(A4) can make a buff-tough Runner nearly indestructible against the
majority of Challenges out there.

Well, it is stated in the RBT that "each Runner may only take one
Vehicle on the shadowrun", os it's not *too* worrisome. However, I have
problems with the Bulldog applying armor toward Runners who aren't
present with it (although it's rare that it'd be needed at the safehouse
while on a shadowrun).

So I've been using a house-rule which has it applying to all present,
unturned Runners, and, in a further modification, the Van returns the
exact same Runners that left the shadowrun to the "new" one.
