Observant readers will have noticed that the best save on the armour chart is 2+ on a D6. It is possible to get a better save than this, for example magic armour can improve the wearer's armour save, but it is never possible to get a better basic armour save than 1+ before save modifiers are applied. If a model has a save of 1+ its armour will automatically save against Strength 3 or weaker hits.
