Is it me or are there no tables to show values, etc. for Armour and Shields [other than artifacts] anywhere?
Page 78 specifically mentions them and even gives an example of armour on the next page, but that's it as far as I can tell.

In MYZ (and GA) the only armour you normally can get is the ones you make yourself, besides artifact armour.

Except I don't notice any skill or trait in GA to enable that.

The hunter has a talent that allows him to make armor out of hide, at least in the Swedish version.

Well-spotted. I had managed to overlook that, and I went through twice; I must be more tired than I thought....thanks for pointing that out.

Still no shield-making is mentioned....I suppose we have to assume anybody can make a scrap shield from a road sign, dustbin lid or part of a car door, or something; I know the rules say a shield is usually Armour Rating 3, so I've no real argument there, but I was thinking on the lines of leather/hide shields etc.....maybe they're not worth the effort if appropriate scrap can be found more easily.

In the MYZ-verse, a shield is technically just an armour. You don't make a skill roll to block with it, you just make a shield armour roll against any incoming attacks (you roll shield first and then armour). So, they are made by the same person that makes the armour.

I suppose that's one way to look at it.
