But if we've got brawling and weapons figured out, I think it shouldn't be too hard to guage an estimate on armour if we have enough volunteers.

I'd rather have a go at Tam as well.

If you have Brawling figured out I'd love to know, my current efforts to figure out the secrets of HMW is doing nothing but causing the remainder of my hair to fall out. :?
The opinions expressed in this post are well-reasoned and insightful.
Needless to say, they are not those of SEIBERTRON.COM, its staff members, or any other site lackeys.
Anyone who says otherwise is itching for a fight.

Ah, every faction has someone trying to figure out (or already figured out, in Tam's case) this kind of stuff (well, maybe not the Autobots :P ). I did the weapons recharges and started trying to figure out how damage was worked out, but I suspect the formulas are well beyond someone who hasn't done higher math since high school.

I have an a level in maths, dunno what the yank equivalent is, but its not really the point most of it comes from having an awesome memory for tidbits glyph said and piecing things together. But armour needs you to know alot of factors to do, and os keeps tweaking brawling. Oh and having excel helps.

Me too, but I only got a C. Still, statistics and algebra were my strong points so I should be fine helping with this (so long as it doesn't somehow bring trigonometry into it).

I'm taking trig now. Lord I hate it!
Anyway, should I or shouldn't I invest the time and 'gon in armor?

I have no idea. I prefer to just give everyone a bit of endurance.

basically slap the longest install time armour on, while upping your rank as little as possible
