     In this episode Saul and Jolene discuss armor in RPGs.  Saul and Jolene discuss the most popular ways armor is represented in RPGs.  From D&D's Armor Class to Traveller's ablative armor.  Each way armor is handled is a mix if how easy one wants to express the use of armor in a RPG against how realistic the game wants to represent armor.

   Games discussed are D&D in all its iterations, Traveller, Liminal, Shadowrun, GURPs, The One Ring.  They each handle the often discussed issue of armor in RPGs in at time extremely different to slightly different ways.
