Rules: Upgrading Armour (Patreon)

I think this makes sense, in context of stealth, anyway. Basically it’s better to roll the d8 with Full Armour and hope for a low roll, then it is to have, say, +4 Light Armour and have to roll d4+4.

The implication being that the armour’s rattling around on your body, rather than being flush with your skin.
