I hadn't noticed that being a problem.	Even armor
five vehicles die when hit with size 4 or 5 guns or
GMS/Hs.  Which makes sense.  Armor will help you with
light weapons, but you need to be about 2-3 sizes up
to really ignore hits.

Who knows--I'd have to run the same battle with the
same tactics two dozen times to give you a
scientifically valid answer.  It looked like it to me,
which is why I havn't changed my vehicle designs.
