books aren't with me, so I can't give any page numbers or such, but
here's what I was thinking:
I know when resisting physical (Body) spells, a character with dermal
armor is able to add the dice for the augmentation to his resistance
test. Essence was paid for the cyberware and thus is recognized as
part of the target's aura or body.
Would the same go for critter armor? It is a natural part of their
body. I know it's also stated that dual-planer creatures get their
armor on both the physical and astral planes. The thing is, critter
armor doesn't actually add to the body rating as dermal armor does. I
also can't think of a specific critter that is stated as having dermal
armor; though I know for some, their armor would make more sense as
dermal.
I myself haven't been adding armor dice when resisting spells with a
critters body. The thought just came to me and I thought I'd bounce it
around the list.
Anyways, since all the other critter armor threads were going on, I
thought I'd bring this up and start my own. :o)
