By armour, do you mean the body armour worn by the FSE legionnaires,
the heavy combat armour worn by the NSL, or full powered armour?

SG2 armour should probably cover that whole range, though given the
randomness of the die mechanic even d12 powered armour isn't bullet
proof against direct hits from low powered weapons.

Which brings me to my peeve of the randomness of the die mechanic.
Good troops are less predictable in their results than poor troops.
