Be my guest, offend me (not that you did), I don't care, we're all GM's here
(aren't we? Paranoid GM sly look-round).

N-E-Way, put it like this, if you could have the best of both worlds
di-kote dermal would be perfect, 3 Body and +1/+1 armour.

All my PC's that can get/afford it have Orthoskin, becuase in some cases,
that extra point of armour on the face (where kevlar hats don't protect)
is more likely to keep you alive than ahving three extra dice to roll...

it's all a matter of probability and gaming style... mine just suits
more armour

"bigger fraginn armour"
"We need bigger fraggin armour"
