Armadura de combate (STR)

This specialty skill allows a hero to improve his ability to perform actions, including parrying with a shield, while wearing standard combat armor, by a gradual process of learning to compensate for the weight and awkwardness of the heavy armor. A character with this skill at rank 1, 2, or 3 is allowed to reduce the action check and Dexterity resistance modifier penalty associated with combat armor (not powered armor) by 1 additional step.

• Parrying with a Shield: The Armor Operation-combat armor skill applies when a hero tries to parry an Unarmed Attack or Melee Weapons attack.
