Armor

=Armor= There are three categories of armor:

Light Armor
Light armor offers a basic level of protection from enemy attacks and minimizes the movement penalties that affect weapon accuracy. All classes can wear light armor.

Medium Armor
Medium armor offers an increased level of protection, but also increases the movement penalties that affect weapon accuracy. Soldiers can wear medium armor from the start, while Vanguard and Infiltrator classes can train to wear it.

Heavy Armor
Heavy armor offers the highest level of protection from enemy fire, but also has the highest movement penalities affecting weapon accuracy. Only specially trained frontline Soldiers can wear it. No class can wear heavy at the start, but the Soldier class can train to wear it.
