Cant seem to make armor work on NPC's.

Hi.

I did some testing tonight (have a game tomorrow).

It seems that the armor value has no effect on an attack.

If you look at my attached picture you can see a couple of damage rolls on warchief ripnugget, who has a Toughness of 6 and armor 3. I have highlighted the ones that should not damage him (In my book) because of armor. I ahve show the weapon that does the attack also, so you can see there is no kind of AP.

What am I doing wrong?

Toughness 6 Armor 3 means that without armor the NPC has toughness 3. In SW armor adds to the toughness of the wearer but the armor value is shown so any AP that can negate the armor can be calculated by the GM (or FG in this case).

This would be shown in the SW stat block as Toughness 6 (3).

That means any blow of 6 or more will shake the NPC.

The value should be Toughness 9 Armor 3.

ok. Thanks. Personally I dont like that it works different on PC (where I can add armor) and NPC's, but if that it how it works I'll have to work with that ;).
