Default Re: Remove armor by force

The rules from TG that _Im_ thinking of go more like: Target the armor directly (-3 to hit on top of location penalties). For a Mail Hauberk on the torso, that is -3. You are up against DR 4, -1 because you are attacking the armor itself, for DR 3. Establish a bunch of CP, and then use Wrench Limb to tear at the armor directly. The armor resists with HT 12, and presumably any CP your opponent has on you could be spent as normal to reduce your roll.

Flexible armor gets treated as diffuse, so strictly by RAW you are limited to 2 HP of damage, so spending more than 5 CP to set max damage is wasteful. For 25 lbs of hauberk, that is 24 HPs to get through, so at best, 12 seconds to start forcing HT rolls before it falls off.
