[LT] Jousting Mail

I wouldn't allow the penalty to be bought off. When I did the stats I assumed that it was the same as jousting plate that was designed to hold you "rigid" in the saddle to make it easier to use a lance. Anything that removes the DX penalty also removes any benefit it gives for jousting and gives it the same susceptibility to crushing as regular mail. The DX penalty was supposed to be severe enough to stop munchkins from using it in regular battle.
