Default Re: Body Armor for Infantry?

As stated, in the game "armor" is not even remotely intended to simulate infantry body armor. Small amounts of armor (1-3) really has zero effect on the damage a unit sustains and really only effects what type of ammo the game code fires at it, HE or AP.

If your infantry seems to fragile adjust the "toughness" as scorpio_rocks said. For my part I usually set it to 150% for a side where body armor is standard issue.
