I have a PBI I've been rolling around my head for years, but haven't put in any real work on.

Basically, each vest (and ballistic plates, if applicable) type would stop a certain percentage of hits coming in. For every five points of damage stopped (rounding up), one point of blunt trauma is assessed. The old penetration figures stop five more points and assess one more point of PEN listed, and the PC is assessed one point for every five points the incoming round stops.

The problem is the old penetration figures. How to integrate them? I know I'm not doing it the right way, but haven't put in the thought to fix it.

Is this a worthwhile idea? Should I proceed with it further? Does anyone else have any ideas on how this might be fixed?
