Hi all, I just wanted to point you to this thread to show you my testing with the armour values and how weapons affect them.
It makes a startling and interesting effect on the game when your choice of troops really affects the way you have to use them. I've had some crushing victories when I've got it right in battle, and some stupid losses when I've got it wrong.
Let me know what you think all, as even if you don't want to re-evaluate the units I'll probably do a submod for this that incorporates my findings.
Also: I'm lucky enough to have an audio book of The Last Kingdom...it rocks!
