Can someone clear up armor for me?
We've played two very simple initial games, and it seems like armor is amazingly powerful.
Base armor for a fig is 4, so it takes a 5-6 damage to kill one, right?
But if a fig adds armor, then armor is 4+1d6? (The card just says 1d6, but that doesn't make any sense, since 1d6 on average is less than 4, so armor would be a bad thing...) So how can a regular weapon kill a guy in armor? It takes a great roll (a 6) against the worst armor roll (a 1), for a total of 6 vs 5 for an attacker to win.
Am I doing something wrong? I saw the 2010 rules seem to have changed armor from 1d6 to +2, but that works out pretty much the same way, I think?
