Nah, the manual says something about casting being difficult with armor because its heavy and/or hinders movement for the magic signs...

"...Spell casters also incur fatigue equal to their Encumbrence value for each spell cast. This is not subject to reduction by skill bonuses. It is harder to make magical gestures in heavy armor. Everyone knows from armor class rules..." (page 87)

So if "undead" is considered a "skill" then the rules are exact. Otherwise they are not!

In any event it would be nice to have the spellcasting encumbrence also displayed so to avoid this confuison...
