Mmh, i think there must be a reason if they were made stackable, I'd wait for enlightenment At least theydon't seem me unbalanced or too hard to counter someway, do you (and why)?

It's unintended. We've been through this with KO before in another thread.

As long as the game allows this I think it is a legitimate strategy. That said, I'd really like to see the issue patched.

I wonder if it would really be that hard to make it not be armor dependent?

I mean, worst that happens, is the +4 Prot gets added to the Base Prot, so that it affects both Body and Head (I may be crazy, but I'm assuming that's why it's added to armor, so that helmets get it as well...).

I know the math with Base Prot + Armor Prot is a little wonky, so it may not make everyone happy to change it that way..... But it may be better than being able to get +16 Prot on a unit with 3 misc slots.

Prot = Base Prot + Armor Prot * (40 - Base Prot)/40. So if your Base Prot is 20 (half of 40) you only get half of your Armor Prot on top of that. Equivalently, Prot = Armor Prot + Base Prot * (40 - Armor Prot)/40.
