Actually thats not a bad solution and far simpler. Question is how much of a
save and if it's modifiable...hmmm. I would be inclined to a straight
unmodifiable save or 4+ for each shield. If not then the save shoulf be
lower since a save of 5 or more with modifiers isn't much of a save. I am
really warming to this idea, it really bypasses a lot of work and you get
the resilience we are looking for. Hmm.. perhaps a 4+ that is modifiable,
weapons with a -1 modier mean a 5+ and -2 weapons a 6, weapons better than
that automatically take it down.

Not a bad idea I must say....

True, the disatisfaction on this issue is mostly from me <grin>
