Okay, I don't really like how the clothing armor in SR gives so much
armor but covers so little of the body but then the ones in NAGtRL suck
eggs as anything more then casual protection (which is what they were
intended for)

*These Concealability ratings reflect attempts at visual detection ...
these buggers set off metal detectors automaticly.

+This price is the price if the package is purchased piece by piece. If
purchased all at once, subtract 10% from the price.

The Jacket adds +1 to the concealability of any item with a
concealability of 5 or higher worn beneath it. (Ie, a pistol in an
underarm holster.)

The Duster adds +2 to the concealability of any item with a
concealability of 4 or higher worn beneath it.

Armor from Heavy Gloves is NOT compatible with armor from forearm guards.

If a full package (including Jacket -OR- Duster) is worn, no other armor
can be layered with it. (Optionally, Form Fitting could be layered but I
wouldn't reccomaned it.)

To calaculate armor rating add up the ratings for the set worn and round
down.

Those numbers are a bit high, aren't they? Should I leave `em alone,
saying they are balanced by be more obvious armor? or should I knock em
down a bit?
