Defence

Defence
Defence, pretty self explanatory and completely vital to surviving the apocalypse. Defence is made up of two factors which will be covered in this page; Armour class and Cover. Armour class is your natural ability to dodge and resist attacks to a certain extent, combined with whatever protection your apparel offers. Cover, the other half of the defence equation is made up of how "in cover" you are, as in hiding behind an object such as a car.

Armour Class
Armour class is determined by what you are wearing. If a player is only wearing normal clothes, their armour class will automatically be 10. Normal clothes will offer no bonuses to armour class, and certain armours or other means of defending yourself will add to your armour class.

Cover
Cover is an extremely handy thing to use and to get use to using, especially in gun battles.
 * Being fully in cover will provide a + 5 to your Defence until you leave the cover.
 * Being partially in cover will provide a + 2 to your Defence until you leave the cover.
