	Armour is ~~your last line~~ of ~~defense~~.		Armour functions along the lines of shields.
			There are four types of armour:
			*'''Leathers:''' The armour consist of only leather. Usually worn by those requiring stealth and skirmishers. Add one level 1 stress box.
			*'''Studded or metal reinforced leathers:''' The armour consist mainly of lether with studs, disc, or rings sewn into it. Usually worn by archers. Add two level 1 stress boxes.
			*'''Metal and leather:''' The body is covered in either chainmail, breatplate, banded metal or other variants. Arms and legs are covered in leather. Worn by medium infantry. Adds two level 1 stress boxes and one level 2 stress box. Requires Physique 1 to wear without gaining "encumbered" aspect.
			*'''Metal armour:''' Wearer is covered with metal and chain armour with leather underneath. Worn by heavy infantry. Adds two level 1, one level 2 and one level 3 stress boxes. Requires Physique 2 to wear without gaining "encumbered" aspect.
			*'''Full plate:''' This is a full set of plate armour. Used mainly by knights, nobles or heavy mounted units. Adds two level 1, one level 2, one level 3 and one level 4 stress box. Requires Physique 3 to wear without gaining the "encumberd" aspect.

			All stress boxes are physical. One stress will always bleed through to the wearer, the rest can be applied to the armour.
			Example:<br>
			An attacker lands an attack and inflicts 2 stress to a leather armour. The wearer take one stress and the armour also takes one stress.

			*'''Sundering armour:'''
