0+ or better armor saves?

by **JacobsLadder** » Sat Aug 29, 2009 9:07 pm

Is it possible to have an armor save better than 1+. 1 will always be an auto-fail, but a save of 0+ or better will be more resistant to armor negating or high strength attacks.
Is this possible? Its a 10 pt difference on my army list! Help me!

You've hit it dead on. I think there is (or was) a Dark Elf mounted character combo that allowed for a -2+ Save vs missles...

Yes there are certain combos that will bring you -1 in hth (weapon/enchanted shield combos)

What combos are these - the 0+ combo is posible for Chaos and Empire (chaos armour/full plate + Enchanted Shield + Barded warhorse), but what combos get you better than that?

The Armour of Meteoric Iron, Armour of Gazrack, and the Dwarf rune of 1+ Armour save whose name escapes me state that they give a 1+ armour save that cannot be improved. What combos can give the -1+ or better?

Dark Elf lord + enchanted sheild + cold one + heavy armor + sea dragon cloak = 0 save

This is allowed? I assumed that there would be a cap on this like characteristics.

Just found it in an FAQ. Apparently it is allowed
