I read about it somewhere but can't recall where ;)

Creating Armor ?
None (in no Edition I know of) !!
Modifying Armor is in Run & Gun though
HougH!

The only way to create armor by the rules (afaIk) is to use magic.
-
It must be coming in an upcoming book then. Wish I could remember which one. Iirc it was not a main focus of the book but a nice addition tacked on.

???
:D
Is it in Rigger 5?
That would be really cool ;D

I don't think that's the one. It should be in one of the less prominent books. I spent some time scouring the net but couldn't figure it out. I made a lot of custom armor for my own games so I was very intrigued when I found out there were rules for it.

Probably only for making armor for the vehicles.
Which is fine for the trolls to wear in a pinch, but the poor daisy eaters will be crushed under all that. ;)
That's no Moon Motor Car rolling up to the gate, that's a Troll wearing Vehicle Armor!

I actually did not think at all about personal armor design.
Being able to improve the armor on drones would give me immense joy. (Combat drones with 4 armor, really?)

"Heavily armored" drones with 5 armor too. REALLY?

if Armor 5 is heavily armored, what is the Bumblebee ?
@Shadowjack
If you remember which Book has rules for CREATING Armor, please Post it

Certainly. I really need to find out fast because I am itching for a new Shadowrun book. I'm thinking it hasn't been released yet though or more people would know what I was referring to. But maybe it is already on the market. I'll let you know if I find out the name.
-
Ok, I have to ask: How would you come to read books that have not yet been published?
-
I read a thread or advertisement that detailed some of the things that were going to be in the book. Whether or not that book has been published yet, I am not sure (probably hasn't been though).

Extremely heavily armored? It's got 14 armor. I was referring to the Dustoff drone from B&B which says it's heavily armored, but then has 5 armor and 4 body, which is just ... yeah ... no.
-
To be fair, the Dustoff has a heavily armored passenger cocoon - which helps you as much as a glass hammer when you are shot down while flying.
so, ... yeah ... no.
-
If I can take it down with a hold-out pistol and one net hit, then it's not heavily armored. As it is, a holdout pistol is all you need to take down every drone except the Steel Lynx and the FB-Bumblebee.
Now, granted, your probably shouldn't be in hold-out pistol range with any drone, but even at range, almost all drones will explode in a shower of twisted metal from a single hit by most combat-grade arms. The only exceptions are the Steel Lynx and the FB-Bumblebee and they'll be downed super quickly.
