I *LIKE* that idea. Unfortunately, One of the mages I run has Personal
Physical Barrier(6) quickened on himself. Since that adds to his armor
and he usually wears an Armored Jacket w/Lined coat (5/3) + one-half of
(4/2) ==> (7/4) /* The way we run it.. */ .... *takes a breath* ...
That means he'd have equivalent (13/10) armor.

"Resist a 9S LightWave."
"Muahahahahahah!!!!!! NO PROBLEM."

*sigh* I guess I could allow it unless I was gaming.
