I have a character whose dodgy henchman sidekick has "I'll sort it out, Boss", specifically for resolving problems offscreen for which my PC's stomach may be too weak. I have no idea what equipment bonuses might come into that and I suspect I wouldn't like to find out. Narratively, though, it works a treat.

p.s. The interesting thing with all this armour stuff is that I am sure (with no base in actual fact) that all that heavy armour is great for the battlefield and not really all that much else, yet I haven't seen this mentioned really. In a one-to-one situation, some guy with a big piece of sharp metal in his hand trying to kill me, I'd be much happier if he were carrying around a goodly number of kilos of extra metal so I could run around trying to find saucepans to lob at him.
